His mausoleum was established in Aran, Isfahan province, Iran. Historicity He is mentioned many times by Shia scholars, but information about his existence inevitably goes back to Al-Tabari who narrates from Al-Waqidi that Ali ibn Abi Talib married Umamah, granddaughter of the Prophet Muhammad, and she give birth to Ali's son, Muhammad Al-Awsat. Al-Waqidi was known to have been an unreliable hadith transmitter by Sunni hadith scholars. Considering that the only source that has a chain of transmission (i.e. ''Isnad'') about Muhammad Al-Awsat contains a liar narrating the information, the historicity for his existence is thus doubtful.

Hadith Studies
Hadith studies is the academic study of hadith, a literature typically thought in Islamic religion to be a record of the words, actions, and the silent approval of the Muhammad as transmitted through chains of narrators. A major area of interest in hadith studies has been the degree to which hadith can be used as a reliable source for reconstructing the biography of Muhammad, in parallel to the Islamic discipline of the hadith sciences. Since the pioneering work of Ignaz Goldziher, the sentiment has been that hadith are a more faithful source for understanding the religious, historical, and social developments in the first two centuries of Islam than they are a reliable record of Muhammad's life, especially concerning the formation of Islamic law, theology, and piety during the Umayyad and early Abbasid eras. Among other reasons, historians are skeptical of understanding the historical Muhammad through hadith due to the late date for when the hadith compilations were made ...
