Al-Qāsim ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr As-Siddiq (Arabic: قاسم بن محمد‎‎) (born 36 or 38 AH; died 106 AH or 108 AH (corresponding to c. 660/662 and 728/730 AD)) was an important jurist in early Islam. He is considered the fourth in the Naqshbandi Golden Chain of Sufi masters. Naqshbandis also consider him to have passed the chain to his grandson Ja'far al-Sadiq. Al-Qāsim shouldn't be confused with Muhammad's son Qasim ibn Muhammad.

Al-Qāsim ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr was born on a Thursday, in the holy month of Ramadan, on 36 / 38 AH (approximately).

Shaykh Qāsim ibn Muhammad descended from Abu Bakr on his father’s side and from Ali ibn Abi Talib on his mother’s side. He was the grandson of the first Caliph Abu Bakr, and the son of Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr, one of Ali's earliest supporters. Moreover, his daughter Farwah bint al-Qasim was the mother of the sixth Shi'a Imam, Ja'far as-Sadiq. One of his sons was Abdu r-Rahman. Besides, he was the nephew of Aishah bint Abi Bakr.
