His tomb The Tomb of Abu Bakr is in a desolate forest called the Dak forest in Northern Morocco not far from a village called Ayn al-Hadeed in the Larache Province.

Persecution As Sayyids in Morocco suffered from the persecution by the Miknasa of Fez, as narrated by the judge Muhamad Bin Ali Hashlaf Al-Jazairi; Abu Bakr and all families that descend from Ali ibn Abu Talib sought refuge in mountains like Jabal al-Alam and were far to reach and therefore did not get their share properly in Moroccan history in terms of exactitudes of their timelines.

Descendants He is the grandfather of Abd al-Salam ibn Mashish ibn Abu Bakr al-Alami His descendants are the ancient fessi Yemlahi Alami family from Fes, Morocco. Some of them left fes and live in Tangier currently.
