Sinan Bin Sabah

@Verax_Rebellis I will tell you the truth.

@OneSourceVision I think you are the one who's obsessed with the Assasins chapter, not the other guy.

Oh the obsession with the Assasins legends! WOW what a “fun historical fact” Bro really went straight for the Bollywood villain arc. Since you’re so fascinated by that one dramatic chapter, let me give you the director’s cut instead of the trailer. The modern Nizari Ismailis are indeed the direct continuation of the same community that was once centred at Alamut but that’s just one episode in a 1400-year story. The Ismaili Imams and their followers actually led the Fatimid Caliphate, the largest and most powerful Muslim empire of its time, and the only major caliphate named after Fatima the beloved daughter of the Prophet. While the Umayyads, Abbasids, and then Seljuks were against the followers of Ali, the Fatimids created a golden age of tolerance, learning, and prosperity. Travellers and scholars from across the Muslim world and even from Christian Europe went to Al-Azhar, the first university ever established in the Muslim world under Fatimid rule. And if you want to go even further back (which most “Assassin” enthusiasts conveniently skip), this lineage traces directly to Imam Jafar al-Sadiq through his son Ismail, and ultimately to Imam Ali and the Prophet Muhammad himself. Continuous, unbroken, for centuries. Ismailis have always lived with Imam of the time. Their philosophy of a guide, a manifestation of noor of allah always present living and guiding goes back even before Ali. (There are layers of depth of meanings in this concept if people open their minds) As for the famous “Assassins” legend that entire spicy story was cooked up by the biggest travel influencer of the medieval period: Marco Polo. He narrated those tales while sitting in a Mongol prison, entertaining his captors with exotic oriental fantasies. Add to that the usual mix of political jealousy, propaganda, and smears from rival rulers who feared the Fatimids’ power and intellectual influence. Classic. on the etymology: The word “Asāsīyūn” (أساسيون) that Westerners turned into “Assassins” actually means “people of the foundation” those who stand firmly on the Asas (أساس),. That is, the living presence of the Imam as the guide of the time, the inner truth of faith, and the eternal authority in this world. Next time maybe read beyond the Crusader propaganda and Marco Polo fan-fiction. The real story is far richer.

@Verax_Rebellis 😉

@OneSourceVision Lol. Your name is literally a combination of Rasheed ad Din Sinan and Hassan Sabah.

@J1618G The Imam is the living Intellect - the perfect mirror reflecting the One to the soul, guiding the gnostic ascent from zahir to batin. Without him, the seeker wanders in fragmented shadows; through his Walayah, the murid attains true knowledge and union with the eternal.

@OneSourceVision Why do you even need an Imam? I don't have one. Why is it necessary to have this?

This Imam is taking it to another level now.

@J1618G @S0ulArchitect The personal experience of the divine is the most important.

@S0ulArchitect @OneSourceVision I don't. I have faith in God because of my own personal experiences with divine intervention. However, I do accept the wisdom of people like Prophet Muhammad, Jesus, etc. Only a fool would ignore good wisdom.

@_Boredistan @S0ulArchitect @J1618G He didn’t come 1400 years later. He is the 50th Imam of Shia Ismailis. A direct unbroken chain from Ali.

@S0ulArchitect @J1618G @OneSourceVision Prophet Muhammad is the only guide we need. We don't need a man that came 1400 years later to re-interpret the Religion for the current times. Islam is for all humanity and will not change. Islam relies on only the Quran and the Sunnah with the interpretation of best generations.

In other words: Spiritually rooted yet progressive

@TalhaEjaz07ee I am writing it so that your readers will be aware and learn. Do good every day 👍

@OneSourceVision O bhai, We all have bloody past. It was just a fun fact. So I repeated. You are doing good now a days so all good

Ahl-e-Batin knows exactly what level I’m talking about. A spiritual leader rooted in the East yet living in the West, with a refined accent yet fully a Muslim leader: bearded, but unlike any mullah, suited and booted, modern and graceful. He is accessible in public spaces, makes surprise visits, and shows the warm heart of a single parent with deep affection for the Jamati youth embracing them like his own. He openly embraces every imperfection in the Jamat, welcomes people of other faiths with open arms, runs marathons, shares flying kisses, and lives as a true bridge between worlds. While many faiths still picture a religious leader in traditional Shalwar Kameez, with a long beard and Arabic speech, Ismailis have adapted and moved far ahead. They are Ibn ul Waqt - children of the time. They look beyond the outer physical form to find the deeper truth, yet understand that physicality is deeply connected to spirituality. The Imam’s modern presence is not a compromise it is a powerful symbol of living faith in today’s world. Most importantly, the Deedars and Ismaili updates are now public. Nothing is private anymore. The world sees the services rendered for the Jamat and the Imam all in plain sight. Of course, this radical openness stirs reasonings and doubts about the Imam’s humanness. But that too carries deep spiritual significance. In this age, the Imam manifests the Universal Soul in a form the contemporary world can recognize and relate to breaking barriers, dissolving secrecy, and guiding humanity through lived example. It is the eternal Light adapting to the times, inviting not just the murids but all seekers to witness the living tariqa of love, service, and intellect. This is the Imam of the Time, walking with us in the rhythm of today.

@OneSourceVision Taking what to a new level exactly?

@rittttesh Would like to understand what is their concept of Imamat. Is it same like the imam-e-gayb and Dai’s transfer the guidance to followers

The Ismailis, proudly and lovingly call Hasan bin Sabah the great grandfather , the devoted fidayi of the Imam who stood as the fearless guardian of the Manifestation of Noor, protecting its eternal light with unwavering loyalty. Even today, many noble hearts carry his spirit across the world and they are not nessarily enough ismailis and maybe of other faiths doing the job. The fanciful tales woven by Marco Polo types simply dissolve in the face of this living truth, while the Seljuqs, Mamluks, Umayyads, and Abbasids among us still fail to grasp the divine reality he so fiercely defended. Read more on : Hasan bin Sabah is from the Asāsīyūn (أساسيون) “people of the foundation” those who stand firmly upon the Asas (أساس), the sacred bedrock of the Imam’s eternal authority and the inner truth of faith.

@hassaninexile hassan sabah's descendent will now lecture me on whats right and whats wrong huh

I once again reiterate my request to establish a monarchy for Pakistan with His Highness Prince Rahim Aga Khan V as the monarch 🙏

@KhanMasab092 @hassaninexile Your so called kufr is holding up this country. Look at the state banquet ceremony where your Army chief, PM and president with all ministers salute and thanks HIM. Is there any other muslim leader to receive such a graceful welcome everywhere in the world?

@hassaninexile But kuffar cannot rule this country

Aga Khan V, the 50th Imam, represents the only living direct line from Pakistan’s founding fathers still actively engaged today. His great-grandfather Aga Khan III (Sir Sultan Muhammad Shah) founded and served as first permanent President of the All-India Muslim League (1906), championing the liberation movement in the British India. He engaged politically with both Gandhi (including meetings in London) and Jinnah, navigating early opposition to later alignment for Muslim self-determination. His grandfather Prince Aly Salman Khan (Aly Khan) served as Pakistan’s Permanent Representative to the UN (1958–60) and Vice-President of the UN General Assembly; his father Aga Khan IV advanced massive development via AKDN in Pakistan; his uncle Prince Sadruddin was UN High Commissioner for Refugees; and Prince Rahim himself continues this legacy with state visits and national honours. However, this history of them doesn’t start there only. Their ancestors have ruled the Muslim world during the golden times of Islam known as Fatimids.

@OneSourceVision @iihtishamm Founding father of Pakistan 🇵🇰. How? Please explain. I am a student of history. Regards

Prince Rahim Aga Khan met with Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif.

@NisarMajor @iihtishamm Its all perspective. Maybe there keenness towards him drive through Aga Khans selfless support to Pakistan. They are the only family of the founding fathers of Pakistan.

@iihtishamm Everyone is staring at him with so much keenness because he is a rich man who can benefit them or harm them. We are really a poor nation from inside.

@DestinyDeoxys1 @IqrarAlee112 How?

@IqrarAlee112 Cult

Quaid-e-Millat Jafaria, Agha Rahat Hussain Al-Hussaini, during his Friday sermon, paid glowing tribute to the His Highness Prince Shah Rahim Al-Hussaini Aga Khan and called on the people of #GilgitBaltistan to extend full support and cooperation to the Ismaili community as 1/3

@NoseCucumber @CryptoCapo_ The rotation of capital has already started. I think bitcoin will dominate again towards the 70%

@CryptoCapo_ Your thoughts align with mine most of the time, but, equities making new ATH’s everyday despite all the bad news we’ve gotten in the past few months is a bit concerning. Crypto should show some relative strength at some point against stocks, would love to see S&P dip around here

78k-80k reached. Bullish continuation soon, imo.

@Umairorkz Boss, whats your target down for a swing? I think its gonna bounce from POC at 78k

In green after a long time

Abu Sufyan was indeed a fierce enemy of Prophet Muhammad and Islam for years. The message of justice and equality threatened the old Quraysh power structure so he led wars against the Prophet and Banu Hashim in battles like Badr, Uhud and Khandaq out of deep animosity. Only after losing Mecca did he accept Islam for political survival like many do today outwardly without true change. He gave his daughter in marriage as per Arab truce custom. After the Prophet their opposition to Ali Fatima and their lineage continued seeking power. Calling Umayyads close relatives is ironic when true blood family stands clear in history. Prophet’s only wife during her life was Bibi Khadija. No other wives then. His only daughter Fatima came through Khadija. No Aisha types(there were many like her) His cousin brother Ali and their offspring represent the real Ahl al Bayt. Rest is political noise to seize rule over people. History shows deep Banu Umayya versus Banu Hashim rivalry predating Islam.
