Would anyone argue that the intention of those who compiled (an extremely difficult task it self)and published this book was anything less than noble.
There was no desire or expectation of glory from the Jamat. They went to extraordinary lengths to stay anonymous.
The result of their act was ...

Re: Just ignore these trash.
In my opinion the true Ismailis should ignore all these trash.
Sun can not hide no matter how hard any one try to hide it.
Do not discuss or debate with anti-Ismaili person or groups about our religion and MHI, and one of day they will know who were on right path.
The best way is stop reading or ...

Ismaili facebook pages attacked
Ya Ali Madad,
Some of the Ismaili facebook pages recently have been attacked by Sunni/Shia people who are attacking the character of our Imam and our practices. For some reason, the administrator/creator of the facebook page is not doing anything to stop this and its been going on for a few days ...

I would suggest reading the entire post before replying. I said: "You do not need to interpret it literally, however there is meaning to be derived from it."
I do not interpret it literally because I do not believe that every non-Isma'ili is destined for hell fire. However, there is meaning to be ...

There are two Adams often referred to (in Qur'an as well, however not explicitly). There is Hazrat Adam (biblical Adam) who was the 'first' human being in this world. However, Hazrat Adam was not the first human being in the world, rather the first of a new era/time (in ginans this is called kal jug ...

Thanks, kmaherali.
According to my interpretation of that excerpt, I dont get the impression that Hazir Imam is saying we are Muslim first, Ismaili second in an ordinal sense.. particularly not in the connotation that several Ismailis tend to suggest. Dont get me wrong, I'm not suggesting that you ...

Muslim first, Ismaili second
Ya Ali Madad,
I had a debate with a friend who said that Hazir Imam has made a farman saying that we are Muslim first, Ismaili second. I have a hard time believing this, but he says that he has heard this farman before.
Do any of you know of such a farman and can provide a source (place/date ...

If it was from the memoirs then it was not a Farman. Remember that the memoirs and farmans are two different things. The Memoirs is for a wider audience and will communicate things with respect to that. For example, Krishna is referred to as a divinely inspired messenger to the public in the memoirs ...

In the qasida dam hama dam Ali Ali there is mention of Khidr however Rumi is saying that Mowlana Ali is Khidr's guide, which implies that Khidr may not have been Imam.
However, from hadiths we learn that Khidr was from the beginning of time and will be there till the end of time. Also, Khidr gave ...

Admin,
Forget about your experience in Syria (Aleppo) in 2001 on discrimination forget about your experience on discrimination in Dhandhuka, Gujarat and forget about the big talk you are writing in this website on discrimination but I think you are doing big discrimination in your own ISMAILI.NET ...

Yes, I agree with you here in both accounts. I'm very drawn to Ismailism, though with some questions and reservations. Because of my Sufi involvement I am aware of the idea of transmission from 'Ali (a) and usually 7 or 8 other imams down through the shuyukh. To me this is somewhat logical because ...

A couple of things I would like to clear and reiterate.. Khojas are not the only Ismailis of Indian descent. I am of the Satpanthi tradition, but not Khoja, as are many who have been discussing in this thread. The Satpanthi tradition, in and of itself, is a minority population within the greater ...
