The holy shrine of Ali ibn Mahziar Ahwazi in Ahwaz Ali ibn Mahziar al-Ahvazi (Persian: علی ابن مهزیار اهوازی) was an early and prominent Shia religious judicial scholar, narrator and scholar. Mahziar was a ninth-century scholar and companion of Ali al-Rida (Reza), Muhammad al-Jawad, Ali al-Hadi, and Hasan al-Askari, the eighth, ninth, tenth, and eleventh of the Twelve Imams. Also, he was their agent in some areas particularly Ahvaz. Mahziar learned Islamic jurisprudence from these Shia Imams. Shia scholars accepted his religious narrates about the Fourteen Infallibles with complete confidence. Al-Ahvazi is noted for his writings, including a Kitab al-malahim [Book of Prophecies], as well as a Kitab al-qa'im. Mahziar was born in Hendijan but owing to the fact that Hendijan was Doraq (today known as Shadegan) city suburban he was known as Doraq resident. His father was Christian, but in his youth along with his father converted to Islam. Later he stayed in Ahvaz. The time of his death is unknown, but presumably he died during Hasan al-Askari'a era.
