As soon as taking power, the Abbasid considered the Alavids the most dangerous threat to their caliphate and treated the Shiite leaders most cruelly. In a way that during the Abbasi caliph's era, most of the Shiite leaders were either exiled or imprisoned and some of them finally fell to martyrdom on the order of the Abbasid caliphs.
The caliphate of Ja'far ibn al-Mu'tasim, the 10th Abbasid caliph was simultaneous to the 10th Shiite leader, Imam Ali Naqi al Hadi (as). Like his precedents, Al-Mutawakki ordered that Imam Hadi (as) to be exiled from Madina to Samarra, his capital, and imprison him among his guards.
