Abū Hāshim Muḥammad ibn Ja‘far al-Ḥasanī al-‘Alawī (Arabic: أبو هاشم محمد بن جعفر الحسني العلوي; d. 1094/1095) was the first Emir of Mecca from the sharifian dynasty of the Hawashim. He was appointed Emir by Ali al-Sulayhi in 455 AH (1063) and died in 487 AH (1094/1095) at over the age of 70. During his reign he switched his allegiance multiple times between the Fatimids and the Abbasids. Ibn al-Athir writes, "There was nothing about him that was praiseworthy." Al-Dhahabi writes, "He was unjust, lacking in goodness." He was succeeded by his son Qasim.[1]
