'''Al-Abbas ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib''' ({{langx|ar|الْعَبَّاس اِبِنْ عَلي اِبِنْ أَبي طَالِبْ}}, {{Circa}} 15 May 647 {{Ndash}} 10 October 680 [[Common Era|CE]]), also known by the [[Kunya (Arabic)|kunya]] '''Abu al-Fadl''' ({{langx|ar|أَبو الْفَضْل|link=no|lit=father of virtue}}), was a son of [[Ali|Ali ibn Abi Talib]], the fifth [[Rashidun|Rashid caliph]] in [[Sunni Islam]] and the first [[Imamate in Shia doctrine|Imam]] in [[Shia Islam]]. His mother was Fatima bint Hizam, commonly known as [[Umm al-Banin]] ({{langx|ar|أُمّ ٱلْبَنِين|lit=mother of the sons|link=no}}). Abbas fought as the standard-bearer of his half-brother [[Husayn ibn Ali]] in the [[Battle of Karbala]] on 10 [[Muharram]] 61 [[Islamic calendar|AH]] (10 October 680) against the army of the [[Umayyad Caliphate|Umayyad caliph]] [[Yazid I|Yazid ibn Mu'awiya]] ({{Reign|680|683}}). He was killed in a desperate attempt to bring water from the [[Euphrates]] river to quench the unbearable thirst of the besieged family of the [[Prophets and messengers in Islam|Islamic prophet]] [[Muhammad]]. Abbas is said to have inherited Ali's boldness and bravery, and was praised by [[Imamate in Shia doctrine|Shia imams]] for his faith and fortitude in defending Husayn. Abbas is regarded by [[Shia Islam|Shia Muslims]] as an ultimate paragon of courage and self-sacrifice. The shrine of Abbas and the nearby mausoleum of Husayn in [[Karbala]] are destinations for pilgrimage.
