Some have spoken of his Kufr and unbelief! While his ancestors were all mowahed (monotheist),\u201d stated the head of Tayebi Bohra Alavi Ismailis.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\">\n\u201cUntil his death, Abu Talib supported the Prophet (p.b.u.h), and made great efforts to defend the Islam. The poems and sayings of Hazrat Abu Talib are a proof of his faith and belief in the Prophet (p.b.u.h). Therefore, we must oppose the strange words that say that Abu Talib (a.s.) is an infidel,\u201d added Daii of Mosta\u2019alavi Ismaili Bohras of India.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\">\nHe, who participated in the conference through video conference, continued, \u201cThere is a hadith from the Prophet (p.b.u.h) in which hi says, \u201cI and Ali (a.s.) were born from the most noble loins and purest wombs\u201d. This hadith is sufficient to prove the purity of the lineage of the Prophet (p.b.u.h) and Imam Ali (a.s.). Abu Talib (p.b.u.h) recited the marriage sermon for the Prophet (p.b.u.h) and Khadija (a.s.) and in this sermon he appealed to all his fathers, all of which were chosen by God. Because all the ancestors of Abu Talib (a.s.) were monotheist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\">\n\u201cScholars and intellectuals should strive without prejudice to document and clarify the facts about the faith of Abu Talib (a.s.) for the younger generation,\u201d said Haatim Zakiyuddin in the end.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\">\nIt should be said that that the Alawi Bohras are of the branches of the Mosta\u2019alawi Tayebi Dawoodi Ismailis, who were in common with other Bohras Ismailis until the 28<sup>th<\/sup> Daii. However, after the claim of Adam Safi al-Din (died 1621 AD), with the claim of Ali Shamsa al-Din, who considered himself the 29<sup>th <\/sup>Daii of Taybi of Dawoodi, they are considered a new branch in the Ismailis. They became known as the Alawite Jamaat because of their belief in the claim of Ali Shams al-Din.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\">\nSince 2015 and after the death of Daii Tayeb Zia al-Din, Daii Haatim Zakiyuddin has been leading this group of Mosta\u2019alawi Ismaili Shiites, as the 45<sup>th<\/sup> Daii of Bohra Alavi. The main center of the Alavi Mosta\u2019alawi Ismailis community is located in Gujarat, India, specifically the city of Baruda.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\">\nThe other branch of Taybi Davoodi Mosta\u2019alawi, are the followers of Saif al-Din Mufazal. The Daii in the Ismaili religion has a rank after the Imam, and the Mosta\u2019alawi Ismailis &#8211; unlike the Nazari Ismailis &#8211; believe that their Imam is a hidden.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Daii of Mosta\u2019alawi Ismaili Bohras of India said, \u201cThe poems and sayings of Hazrat Abu Talib are a proof of his faith and belief in the Prophet (p.b.u.h).
