Re: Ismaili religious beliefs
It doesn't matter if they believe in One God and the finality of Prophet Muhammad(SAW), they believe in pantheism which is Shirk.
For anyone to be a Muslim, one has to say the "Shahada" the Kalima .. AND no one in the WORLD can claim this man or a woman to be a non muslim ...
Anyone who does NOT Believe in ONE GOD is committing SHIRK and thefore is not a muslim.
From what I understand from the belief system of Agakhanis / Ismailies is that they are Muslims, because they believe in "SHAHADA" and I know this for a Fact, since I live with them and I have been involved in many of their International Projects ....
BUt then, when I read what you just mentioned .. . Are you implying that Aga khanis are non muslims ? Despite the fact that they believe in Shahada ?
