Thanks K.Bhai for the English translation of above Nazam.

In Urdu:-
سنو ارے سنو، مولیٰ کی آمد کی چاپ اب سنائی دے رہی ہے،
ہنزہ گلگت کی جماعت اب مسرت منا رہی ہے۔

برسوں سے جو سج رہے تھے اہتمامِ استقبال،
آج وہی تیاریاں ہر قلب میں شادمانی بسا رہی ہیں۔

دیکھو جماعتوں کے رخسار کی تاب و تجلیاں،
اُن کے سامنے آفتاب کی چمک بھی پھیکی نظر آ رہی ہے۔

مہک اٹھی ہے آج ...

सुनो अरे सुनो, मौला की आमद की चाप अब सुनाई दे रही है,
हुंजा गिलगित की जमाअत अब मसर्रत मना रही है।

बरसों से जो सज रहे थे एहतेमाम-ए-इस्तकबाल,
आज वही तैयारियाँ हर क़ल्ब में शादमानी बसा रही हैं।

देखो जमाअतों के रुख़्सार की ताब और तजल्लीयाँ,
उनके सामने आफ़ताब की चमक भी फीकी नज़र आ रही है।

As per my understanding, Imam should be one at a time; there cannot be two Imams simultaneously.

Hazarat Abu Talib was Imam before Hazarat Ali (AS). However, I read some verses from Momin Chetamani, as shared above, and some verses clearly state that Hazarat Ali was born as an Imam.

I really enjoyed the introduction of Rai Abu Ali. I had read a similar article last year, but I feel a few important points are still missing from this version.

For example:
1. He guided and converted 27 non-Ismailis to Ismailism.
2. He earned his PHD degree with a thesis on Pir Satgur Noor (Syed ...

Whether Mowlana Shah Rahim’s didar is scheduled in the USA, UK, Portugal, Kenya, or Pakistan, the love and devotion of the Jamat for Mowlana Hazar Imam shine with the same intensity everywhere.

Your above 👆 topic is very interesting, but it raises a question: were these beings real, or are they symbolic?

If at home someone recites tasbih 101 times or 33 times, it is okay, even though Ismaili Tariqah and Religious Education Board (ITREB) has announced reciting it 11 times.

Interesting, there is one another person, Ashwatthama, who is also believed to be immortal—but living in pain and sorrow. As per Hindu scriptures, during the Mahabharata war, he killed innocent children (the sons of the Pandavas) while they were asleep

نا-امید بھی امیدوں سے اُبھَر جاتا ہے،
بے-قدر بھی قدر دان بن جاتا ہے۔
بس تیری پیار بھری نظر ہو اُن پر،

I have been hearing that there is no difference between Ism-e-Azam and a Boll. A Boll is usually given from the 99 names of Almighty Allah.

Meheboob Saheb, in your earlier post you mentioned that Ism-e-Azam is the greatest name of Allah. If that is the case, then which of Allah’s names would be ...

Houston interfaith questioning: Question was asked, Why Ismailis do not fast in the month of Ramadhan and pray 5 times? Hazar Imam Shah Rahim answered; Many Ismailis fast and you can fast too. My Father also fast every Ramadhan. There is nothing stopping Ismailis to fast or praying Namaz.

To Swamidada,

The names of qavis which you mentioned; were these Sat Punthis? I am familiar with some names which I read here and there like; Dheru Bhagat, Mamdev, Sachdev, Ramdeve, Trikam, Jivan master. If they were Sat Punthis then sure they used the word Naklanki.

Thanks for quoting above bhajan. Can you mention the name of qavi. Looks like it is authored by an Ismaili Satpunthi, may be Pir or a Syed. Look at the following stanzas;.

2. Tribhovandas
