46. Imam Hasan ‘Ali Shah Aga Khan I (1817-1881): "And it is known that my ancestors were from the Family of the Prophet, peace be upon him and upon his Family. Yet despite all this, I am not attached in the slightest detail to this world and what is in it. Indeed, efforts have been exerted to the utmost extent to spread the faith and the sacred law of the final Prophet in imitation of my pure ancestors. Likewise, is it evident that in Egypt several generations of my ancestors held kingship and the caliphate...I am a descendant of that family." - Imam Hasan ‘Ali Shah Aga Khan I, (Tarikh-i ‘Ibrat-afza, tr.

Imam Khalil Allah I Dhu’l-Faqar ‘Ali (1574-1634): "You must know that the knowledge of the Imam is one of the principles which should be accepted. As the Imam is permanent and an ever existing truth, the world could not be vacant of him for a single hour. And he, who does not know the Imam of his time, he would die a pre-Islamic death. The Imams are ever existing and permanent. They are continuous dynasty coming out the one from the other. The Imam is known from his original nucleus. If he has nominated and appointed for the post of Imamate, any one of his sons, he should be considered the right Imam." - Imam Dhu’l-Faqar ‘Ali Khalil Allah I, (Letter to Syrian Ismailis, quoted in Mumtaz Aly Tajuddin Saddik Ali, Ismailis in History) Read more: https://ismailignosis.com/2016/07/09/the-aga-khans-direct-descent-from-prophet-muhammad-historical-proof/ #Ismailis #Ismailism #AgaKhan #ProudIsmaili #OneJamat #ImamOfTheTime #Adam2AgaKhan #DiamondJubilee #DJCountdown #IsmailiGnosisDJCountdown #IsmailiImamat #IGDJ #CountdownToDJ Please visit www.ismailignosis.com or ask.ismailignosis.com or visit our Facebook page www.facebook.com/IsmailiGnosis for more gems about Mawlana Hazar Imam, the Imamat, and Ismaili history and philosophy.

The lawfulness of such matters consists in this: you must faithfully and exactly compute in full all your income and all that comes to you, and set aside a purification due of this, which is the duty (mal-i-wajibat) on it, and deliver it, faithfully, in full, and in all sincerity, to the treasury of the Imam of the time who is the King of this world and the hereafter. And you must do everything to ensure that it may reach him in full... By paying that purification due you will rise high in, your own esteem, and by not paying it you will remain in the valley of despair. If you pay it, your worship will be accepted, and if you do not, it will find no acceptance became worship is acceptable only if what you eat and what you clothe yourselves with are clean and lawful to you, that is to say, if you recognize the Imam of your time, paying correctly a purification due (dasond) unto him. Then, only the food you eat will be lawful to you and the dress in which you clothe yourself will also be lawful. Then only all other forms of devotion will be accepted."
