Agakhani claim that they are linked to Isma’il ibn Ja’far (Arabic: إسماعيل بن جعفر c. 721 CE/103 AH - 755 CE/138AH) was the eldest son of Imam Ja’far al-Sadiq (sixth Imam of Shia’h). But one can draw a conclusion after study the history of Aga Hasan Ali Shah (Aga Khan I) the he came to India from persian and he had no connection with any imam.
Agakhani trace Agakhan lineage to Hazrat Ali, cousin of Muhammad, and his wife Fatima, Prophet Muhammad’s (saw) daughter which is an insult to Islam and prophet Muhamm (ad, Hazrat Ali and Hazrat Hassan and Hussien (r.a) because how can Agakhan, with his Playboy image, who’s life is against the Sunnah (life style of Prophet Muhammad) be connected to Hazrat Ali (r.a).
The Aga Khan has officially Declared himself, before his followers, as the “Mazhar of Allah on earth”. The word “mazhar” means “copy” or “manifest”. Consequently, these Ismailis who call themselves Muslims do “sujood” before him. So even the primary axiomatic principle of Tawheed is being fundamentally and formally violated by them. My student of Deen believe that it is insult to Rasulullah (S.a.w) and religion of Islam to link Aga khan (and Agakhanis) to Islam.
There is misconseption that Agakhan is from Gujrat India. As you can see from the picture above that he doesn’t look like India and Gujrati*.
*** Agakhan is not Gujrati. Aga Hasan Ali Shan (aka Aga Khan 1) came to India from Persia and with the help from British (**) AgaKhan 1 and few of his Persian followers were able to convert thousands of poor Muslims and low caste Hindus into Ismailism - Agakhanism. This is one of the reason Agakhan family still try to dress in Indian clothing, women wearing Sari. Muslim in India was against British occupation and wanted to do Jihad against British forces. British used Agakhan 1 and Mirza Ahmed Qadian to divide Muslim in India
Funny thing about Agakhan is that in early 2000’s he was attacked while doing his morning jog by 2 homeless men in Paris, France. The news was on in front page in Paris newspaper but was removed from media next day. If Agakhan is “Mazhar of Allah” or “GOD” than why he got beatup by 2 homeless people in Paris, France. If he is “GOD” couldn’t he stop them? Why would Agakhan “GOD” has gay SON?
I respect him as leader and his humanitarian effort (AgaKhan hospitals and educational institutions) but he is not a Religious Leader and he doesn’t practice Islam.
