The above posted link is the thread on ahle bait. In this thread many members have provided insight into the prophet’s (pbuh) family and descendents. So I was wondering when many of my ismaili friends say that Prince Karim Agha Khan is the descendent of the Prophet (pbuh) and family of the Prince are known as the Noorani family, are we to believe them?
I know many sunni’s and other shias don’t consider them muslims but I for one have no doubt that they are true muslims. They believe in One Allah, and believe that Prophet Mohammed (pbuh) was the last messenger of Allah which is the typical accusation against them (i.e. they don’t believe in the above).
Any insight to the above question will be appreciated.
Some shia stopped believing in immat after imam jafer-e-sadiq and some believed imam ismail became the next imam after imam jafer-e-sadiq, hence they are called ismails. Prince Karim Agha Khan is the current imam, continuing from that lineage.
armughal bhai, it's not up to you to decide who is or isn't a muslim. Infact, why don't u tell us why don't u think they're muslims? Maybe I can clear up any ill-concieved notions as I'm very close to people who are part of this sect.
