Ismailism rose at some point to become the largest branch of Shoism, culminating as political power from the Fatimid Caliphate in the tenth to twelfth centuries. The Ismailis believe in one human thing, as well as in closing the divine revelation with Muhammad, whom they consider the ultimate prophet and Messenger of God for all mankind. Ismāʿīlī and the Twelve receive the same original imam. After the death of Muhammad ibn Ismail in the 8th century AD, the teachings of Ismailism were further transformed into a belief system, as it is known today, with a clear concentration on the deeper, esoteric meaning (batina) of the Islamic religion. With the possible development of Thurrism in the more literalistic (zahir) oriented Akhbari, and then Usuli School of Thought, Shii Islam developed into two different directions: a metaphorical Ismaili group focused on the mystical path and the nature of God, with The Time Imem, representing the manifestation of esoteric truth and understandable reality, with a more literal group of Twelve, focused on divine law (Sharia) and deeds and utterances (sun) Muhammad and the Twelve Imams, who were guides and twelve imams. Ismaili thought is strongly influenced by neoplatonism. The larger sects are the Niharis, and they recognize the Aga Khan IV as the 49th hereditary imam, while other groups known as the Tayibi branch also retain claims to Ismāʿīlī leadership in The Pakistani and Indian communities. Ismāʿīlīs can be found in Central Asia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Syria, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Jordan, Iraq, East Africa, Angola, Lebanon and southern Africa, and in recent years has emigrated to Europe, Canada, Australia, New york, the United States, Trinidad and Tobago. History Additional information: Mustali, Tayabi Nizari, The History of Nizari Ismailism and the Crisis of Succession of the Ismaili Constitution Main Article: The succession of Muhammad Ismailism shares its beginnings with other early Shia sects that emerged during the succession crisis that spread throughout the early Muslim community. From the outset, the Shiites defended the right of Ali, Muhammad's cousin, to have both political and spiritual control over the community. It also included his two sons who were muhammad's grandchildren through his daughter Fatima. The conflict remained relatively peaceful between the Ali guerrillas and those who claimed semi-democratic khalifs until a third of Rashid's caliphs, Usman, were killed, and Ali, with popular support, ascended the caliphate. Shortly after her rule, Aisha, the third of Muhammad's wives, along with the Usman tribe, ummaadmi, declared that Ali should take the sis (blood for blood) from the people responsible for Usman's death. Ali voted against it because, in his opinion, the situation at that time required a peaceful solution to this issue. Both sides could rightly defend their claims, but due to the escalation of misunderstandings, the Battle of camel was fought and Aisha was defeated, but was respectfully escorted to Medina Ali. After this battle, Muawiya, the governor of Omeyada in Syria, also staged an uprising under the same pretexts. Ali waged his forces against Muawiya until Muawiya's side held copies of the Koran against their copies and demanded that the issue be resolved by the holy book of Islam. Ali accepted it, and an arbitration was made that ended in his favor. A group from Ali's army believed that subjecting him to legal authority to arbitration amounted to apostasy, and abandoned his troops. This group was known as Hawaridge and Ali wanted to defeat their forces before they reached cities where they could mingle with the rest of the population. Although he was unable to do so, he nevertheless defeated their forces in subsequent battles. Despite these defeats, the Harijites survived and became a fiercely problematic group in Islamic history. After preparing an assassination attempt on Ali, Muawiya, and the arbiter of their conflict, Ali was successfully killed in 661 AD, and imamat handed it over to his son Hassan, and then to his son Hussein, or, according to Nizari Ismāʿīlī, the imam temporarily passed to Hassan, who was a trusted imam (al-Imam al-Musadah) and then to Hussein, who was a permanent imam. The Trusted Imam is an imam in the full sense of the word, except that the ancestry of the Imamat must continue through the Permanent Imam. However, the political caliphate was soon taken over by Muawiya, the only leader in the empire at the time with a large army to seize control. Even some of Ali's early followers considered him an absolute and divinely governed leader who could demand as much devotion from them as one would expect from the Prophet. For example, one of Ali's supporters, who was also loyal to Muhammad, told him, Our opinion is your opinion, and we are in the palm of your right hand. Ali's first followers seem to have accepted his leadership as the right guide, emerging from divine support. In other words, Ali's leadership was seen as an expression of God's will and the Koranic message. This spiritual and absolute power of Ali was known as a shaft, and it was inherited by his successors, imams. In the first century after Muhammad, the term Sunn was not specifically defined as the Sunna of the Prophet but was used in connection with Abu Bakr, Kumar, Usman and some of Umayyad's caliphs. The idea of hadiths or traditions attributed to Muhammad was not mainstream or a criticism of Hadith. Even the earliest legal texts of Malik B. Anas and Abu Hanifa use many methods, including analog reasoning and opinions, and do not rely solely on hadiths. It was not until the 2nd century that the Sunni lawyer al-Shafiqi first argued that only Sunna Muhammad should be the source of the law and that this Sunna was embodied in the Hadith. It will take another hundred years after al-Shafiqi for Sunni Muslim lawyers fully base their methodology on prophetic hadiths. Meanwhile, Shia Muslim imams followed the Imams' interpretation of Islam as normative without the need for hadiths and other sources of Sunni law, such as analogy and opinion. Karbala and then the Battle of Karbala Main article: The Battle of Karbala After the death of Imam Hassan, Imam Hussain and his family became increasingly concerned about religious and political persecution, which became commonplace during the reign of Muawiya's son, Yazid.

  • Statement on Ashara
    August 17 2020 DAWOODI BOHRAS TO OBSERVE ASHARA MUBARAKA AT HOME IN 2020 About Ashara Mubaraka ● At the beginning of the Islamic year during the month of Muharram, the Dawoodi Bohra community - like millions of Muslims around the world - commemorates the martyrdom of SAW ​ Imam Husain ibn Ali, the grandson of Prophet Mohammed .​ ​ ​ ● For the Dawoodi Bohra community, this ten-day period, known as Ashara Mubaraka, is a ​ time of spiritual reflection and educational growth. Thousands of Dawoodi Bohras across the world travel to the city chosen for the central gathering by their leader, His Holiness Dr. Syedna Mufaddal Saifuddin to listen to his sermons. Those that do not ​ ​ ​ attend in person join their local congregations in which sermons are delivered by persons appointed by His Holiness. ● Starting on the 2nd day of the month of Muharram and delivered over nine days, the sermons explore themes of justice, sacrifice, brotherhood, forgiveness, kindness and piety - all qualities that manifest themselves in the tragedy that befell Imam Husain and his companions in Karbala, Iraq, which ultimately led to his martyrdom. ● This year, the Ashara Mubaraka sermons will take place between 19 and 28 August. ● Members close shops and businesses while professionals and students take leave during this nine-day period in order to participate fully and observe the sanctity of the occasion. Online Sermons due to COVID-19 ● In keeping with the government guidelines and instructions on social distancing due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this year, Dawoodi Bohra communities all over the world will instead observe Ashara Mubaraka at home with their families by following prayers and sermons online, just as they have done during Ramadan and other recent religious occasions.

  • 1 ʿashara Mubaraka AH 1440 Majlis 7 English Reflections on the 8Th Of
    ʿAshara Mubaraka AH 1440 Majlis 7 English Reflections On the 8th of Muharram al-Haraam we were blessed with the barakat of three Du’at Mutlaqeen in the day of ʿAshara Mubaraka dedicated to Amirul Mumineen AS. Al-Dai al-Ajal Syedna Taher Saifuddin RA invoked Imam Husain AS to intercede for those who have yet to be blessed with children. Zakariyyah Nabi AS was instructed to fast on the second of Muharram and by the intercession of barakat of Imam Husain, Allah Taʿala answered his prayer for a child. Syedna Saifuddin RA recalled that his father Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin RA also fasted on this day and was bless with children at a late age. In the brief bayan mubarak we had the honour of listening to, Maulana al-Muqaddas RA directed us to always remember one thing: remain true to your dai. We were then blessed with the waʿaz mubarak delivered by Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin RA 33 years ago in Indore affront a gathering of nearly 1,20,000 at the same location where al-Dai al-Ajal Syedna Mufaddal Saifuddin TUS addresses us today. In his waʿaz mubarak, Syedna al-Muqaddas explained that Imam Husain AS chose to sacrifice his life in order to preserve truth, to preserve the faith. In this context Maulana Burhanuddin RA counselled Mumineen to always be truthful, to continuously remember Husain AS as do people of other communities who even take vows in his name. We should stay true to the Shariah, prayer and fasting and be brotherly both with Mumineen and with people of other beliefs.

  • Khuzaima Qutbuddin Laid to Rest, Body Flown Over Raudat Tahera
    Print Khuzaima Qutbuddin laid to rest, body flown over Raudat Tahera By: Express News Service | Mumbai | Published:April 11, 2016 1:33 am Taher Fakhruddin conducts prayers for his father, Khuzaima Qutbuddin, at their Thane residence Darus Sakina on Sunday afternoon. Express Khuzaima Qutbuddin, claimant to the position of the spiritual head of Dawoodi Bohras, was buried at his residence Darus Sakina in Thane on Sunday afternoon, in a private affair involving a few members from the Dawoodi Bohra community. Qutbuddin, who passed away on March 31 in California, was 76 and has been succeeded by his son Taher Fakhruddin. Owing to the feud in the family, Qutbuddin’s body was placed in a hired chopper and flown over — the mausoleum in Bhendi Bazaar where his father Taher Saifuddin and former Dai al­Mutlaq Mohammad Burhanuddin have been buried — to encircle it seven times. In a statement, Qutbuddin’s family admitted that he “had been prevented in the last two years from performing ziyarat at Raudat Tahera since the sad passing away of His Holiness the Late Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin” According to his family, it was Qutbuddin’s wish to perform ziyarats (pay respect to the grave) of his father and brother. With fear of backlash or stone­pelting from the members of the community, his family decided to visit the mausoleum in a helicopter and pay respects from directly above the grave. “…and it was fulfilled as he always wanted it, with peace and dignity,” the family stated. Qutbuddin was in a legal tussle with the former Dai’s son Syedna Mufaddal Saifuddin over the succession to the post of Syedna and guardianship of all Bohra properties attached with the community.
