This is what Hazar Imam is doing instead of Pir Hasan. Naklanki is not creating institutions for salvation but it is his guidance through which an adept shall get salvation. Satya Yoga was world of ocean creatures mainly fishes. So he has to take Avtar of Fish to explain fishes. Fishes will not und...

[ The first Pir The Prophet (according to satpunthi Ismailis) performed hajj and encouraged his followers to do so. Please remember it was hajj occasion where Prophet designated Ali as Imam.

Karim Sir, I appreciate you are trying hard to validate your point. Please take all articles of Preamble for consideration and not just one article. Are Ismailis not Shias? Do they not follow Ja'fari Madhab as Imam mentioned? Ismailis believe all Imams as Ali. So this is the same Noor of Ali who ha...

Pir Sadardin and other Pirs performed HAJJ, to which direction in Mecca they face to say salat. Was Pir Sadardin not aware that Allah's Noor is every where? We don't follow what the Peers did or do.

The responsibility of Avtars was the salvation of souls. When Pir Hasan as a savior freed unlimited souls then what job is left for Naklanki?? The role of Peer Hasan Kabeerdeen is to guide and pray for the salvation of souls. Hence we have Shukarvari Beej in gratitude for this service. The role of ...

[ Why don't you people accept Preamble by Imam which explains the real Ismailism. If you people have so pain with Preamble request Imam to withdraw it.

Rama was the first complete human Avtar and Pahlaj was before him in Karta Yuga means he was not in human form, in other words Avtar of mammals and different animals.

My take; when thinking of 1400 years or 1000 years in past is not valid how come then thinking of past 700 years? Even the thinking of 700 is invalid if it is superseded by the present Imam.
