Hadhrat Imām Qāsim ibn Muhammad ibn Abū Bakr as-Siddīq (24-107 AH), radiyAllāhu anhum ajma’īn, was one of the greatest Tābi’īn and one of the great seven jurists of Madinah.

He was grandson of Amīr al-Mu’minīn Abū Bakr as-Siddīq radiyAllāhu anhu, and nephew of Umm al-Mu’mineen Sayyida Āishā Siddīqā raziyAllahu anhā.

He married his cousin Asmā bint Abdur-Rahmān ibn Abū Bakr as-Siddīq radiyAllāhu anhum. They had a daughter named Fātimā, also called Umm Farwā, who was married to Imām Muhammad al-Bāqir bin Imām Zain al-Ābidīn. She was also the mother of Imām Ja’far as-Sādiq, who received the secret of the Naqshbandi way from his grandfather Imām Qāsim.

The next in the Naqshbandī Mujaddidī Tāhirī spiritual golden chain is Imam Ja’far as-Sadiq.

 "Allāh’s Messenger (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) said: when Allāh loves some person, He sends for Jibrīl and commands him: verily, I love such and such person; you should also love him, so Jibrīl loves him as well. Then Jibrīl proclaims in the heavens that Allāh loves such and such person; you should also love him. Then the residents of the heavens love him as well. Then his love is sent down to the earth (the world)."
