Life
Ali was born with the name Tha'laba, to a family descending from Abd al-Hamid al-Judhami, a member of the Syrian regiments of the Umayyad Caliphate who had settled in al-Andalus, in the region of Alcalá la Real.

In 900, Ali decided to go on the Hajj pilgrimage, but on the way, as he was passing through the lands of the Kutama Berbers, he was impressed by the Isma'ili message being propagated by Abu Abdallah al-Shi'i. He stayed there, married a Kutama woman named Maymuna bint Alaham al-Jili, and changed his name from Tha'laba to Ali.Шаблон:Sfn After the establishment of the Fatimid Caliphate in 909, he became one of the closest advisors of the new caliph, Abd Allah al-Mahdi Billah.Шаблон:Sfn In 924, during the campaign by al-Mahdi's heir-apparent, al-Qa'im against the Zenata Berbers, Ali was given the task of establishing a new city on the plain between the Hodna Mountains and the Chott el Hodna lake. Named al-Muhammadiya (modern M'Sila) after al-Qa'im, it was meant to cement Fatimid control over the area, as well as a base from which to cultivate the once rich Hodna plain.Шаблон:Sfn
