  Jafar Sadiq - Biocrawler
Jafar Sadiq AS or Jafar Al Saddiq AS (pronounced Jafar As Saddiq AS) was born as Jafar Ibn Muhammad in Medina on April 20, 702.
Jafar was considered by the Shia to be the 6th Shia Imam, as he was the son of Muhammad al-Baqir AS (the 5th shia Imam), grandson of Zainul Abideen AS (4th Shia Imam) and thus the Prophet.
After Jafar's death, there arose a major split between the partisans of the Ithna Ashari Shias ("Twelvers"), who felt that Ismail's brother Musa al Kazim (one of Jafar's younger sons) was the rightful successor to Jafar; and the Ismailis ("Seveners"), who felt that the Ismail was the rightful successor as the seventh Imam.

 ISMAIL BIN JAFAR SADIK (148-158/765-775)
Abu Muhammad Ismail, surnamed al-Wafi was born in Medina between 100/719 and 103/722.
Ismail's exposition would have also given free rope to the Abbasids to upbraid Jafar Sadik, who is said to have produced a document to caliph Mansur, bearing signature of the persons, testifying the alleged death of his son.
Nothing prevents us in concluding therefore, that Ismail had not died during his father's time, and the theory of change of nass was absolutely an Abbasid fabrication to motivate their inimical objectives, which also became a tool of the later Twelvers.

From Ismail bin Jafar, the Ismaili line of Imams diverges to the descendants of Ismail, from whom the Aga Khans claim descent and their continuity.
The Zaidis believe that Zayd bin Ali, and not his brother Muhammad al-Baqir was the rightful successor to the Imamah.

They claim that Ismail was secretly sent out by his father to Syria to protect him from his enemies, and that Ismail continued his Imamat from there and died in Salamiya, a town in Syria.

 ISMAILIS Articles Part of a series on Shi‘a Islam Ism
The Ismaili get their name from their acceptance of Ismail bin Jafar as the successor, or Imam to Jafar al-Sadiq, wherein they differ from the Twelvers, who accept Musa al-Kazim, younger brother of Ismail, as their Imam.
After the passing away, or Occultation of Imam Muhammad ibn Ismail according to the Sevener Ismailis, the teachings of Ismailism further transformed into the belief system as it is known today, with an explicit concentration on the batin, or esoteric aspect of the Islamic religion.
With the eventual development of Twelverism into the zahir oriented Akhbari and later Usooli schools of thought, Shiasm developed into two separate directions the Ismaili aspect focusing on the mystical nature of the Imam and the mystical path to Allah, and the Twelver aspect focusing on sharia and the Sunnah of the Ahl al-Bayt.
