Hasan ibn Ali
Some works deal specifically with Hassan ibn Ali. One of the most important and interesting topics about the life of Hassan Mojtaba are works with the general title of "Uprising or Murder of Imam Hassan". These works are among the first collected works. The oldest of these works is the Maqtal Al-Hasan ibn Ali (, The murder of Hassan bin Ali) by Abu Mikhnaf, the Akhbari of the second century AH; and Qiam al-Hasan ibn Ali (, the Uprising of Al-Hassan Ibn Ali) by Hisham ibn al-Kalbi (d. 205 AH). Other works in this field include Akhbar al-Hasan ibn Ali va vafatehu (, the news of Al-Hasan Ibn Ali and his death) by Haytham Ibn Uday (d. 207 AH) and Qiam al-Hasan ibn Ali by Abu Ishaq Ibrahim Ibn Muhammad Saghafi, which Ibn al-Nadim has mentioned its name: Akhbar Al-Hasan Ibn Ali. Another work from this category up to the fourth century AH is the Maqtal Al-Hasan ibn Ali by Abu al-Hussein Ashnani (d. 338 AH).
