Mowlana
Hazar Imam's First Visit to Tajikistan in 1995 - My web site was still
in its infancy at that time and I cannot get over the spiritually charged
emotions of that visit, both amongst the Ismailis that witnessed this event
as well as the media reports that I read at the time. I decided to present
this segment for your enjoyment - to re-live the sensations that the Tajiki
and Afghani Ismaili Jamat must have felt at meeting the Imam in person
after 600 years of pure devotion to his line of Imamat from the teachings
of one Nasir
Khusraw... You be the judge.

Attention
dear visitors! Some of the links on my web site have been disabled due
to an account name change that a friend of mine had to make, whose space
had been donated for my use, and yours truly has not had the time to re-code
all of the hardlinks on all the various directories the Ismaili Web now
resides on. So, if you receive a message: "File not found" and it has ~greatone
in the url, please substitute it with ~crusader . My friend did not feel
comfortable anymore in using the name greatone and changed it to crusader!
Inshallah, in the days ahead, I'd like to be able to carry the whole site
in one location, and I ask for your prayers to make this possible. Muskil-Asaan

Heroes Web This section will be updated in the next few days to include
more pages. I had a choice whether to load this section up right now, or
wait until I have worked on all the articles, that means reading them,
making them ready for the web, cross-linking them, etc. and I decided to
upload this section right now! Our past heroes, as you will read from this
section, were very active in multiple fields and the Fatimid period of
our history produced some of the world's best personalities under the guidance
of the Imam-Caliphs. Currently, we should take this challenge and produce
our best under the guidance of Mowlana Hazar Imam! After all, the coming
of "the Mahdi" (Guide) from the West has been predicted... And the millenium
is upon us! Alhamdulillah! As Allah says, the righteous shall inherit the
earth!
