Assalam-o-Alaikum
Thank you so much for the detailed information about the 1908 Case and the great Aga Samad Shah.
I have been hearing about Aga Samad Shah from our elders since childhood, but today I got to know the complete story because of you.
Sir, you are doing truly great work.I kindly request you to also upload the Urdu version so that more people can benefit from it.
Thank you once again.
Regards,
just one confusion, once the Nizari Ismaili identity was established as Shia Ismaili Muslims, then how come Haji Bibi again bough up the 12er argument? please do share your feedback on that based on your research.
Thanks
But belongs to Hashashins cast Sabais
Muslims scholers do not accept his pedigree as true

I am deeply impressed by the wisdom you have brought to the reading of Ismaili history,in particular those untold stories that really shape the ethos of a community. This is how history should be read. Please also start a series on the mainstream Islam where we feel the most ignorant.
I m now more interested in Ismaili history though I m not a follower of Agha Khan but I think I have started to appreciate the leadership trajectory without going into the Faith based miracle driven approach
