About

The purpose of this blog is to personally gather and categorize all the past, present and future openly available news, articles, pictures, videos, and anything and everything related to Ismaili Imamat activities and community for easy search and reference.

Ismailis are the Shia Imami Nizari Ismaili Muslims who follow Prince Karim Aga Khan IV — the direct descendant of the Prophet Mohammad — as their 49th imam and the spiritual leader. A minority community within the Muslim faith, the Ismailis include some 20 million members scattered across 25 countries in Central Asia, Europe and Eastern Africa. The Aga Khan himself lives near Paris in Aiglemont Palace. Born near Geneva, the Aga Khan grew up in Kenya, Switzerland and London before being educated at Harvard. At the age of 20, he succeeded his grandfather as the Aga Khan, thus becoming a religious leader and the administrator of billions in assets, the Aga Khan channels much of the money into the Aga Khan Development Network, one of the world’s most important private development aid organizations. For more information, visit Institute of Ismaili Studies for a brief overview of the community and introduction to His Highness the Aga Khan

Please note that we do not take open-ended questions, comments or contentious observations.

This blog and the author of this blog are not associated with any of the Aga Khan Institutions. This blog does not represent, nor operate on behalf of Hazar Imam [His Highness the Aga Khan], the Ismaili Tariqah [faith], the jamat [community], any Council or any other Ismaili institution. This blog is an individual effort to reverberate the good news of activities in the Ismaili Community across the globe, and to help gather the news under one platform for easy search and reference.

Its beginning to get close to 200,000 hits on the Ismaili Mail website and there is a good likelihood that I will be out of the country when it happens. However, I will try to get to a computer that has internet wherever I am to send you a congratulatory note on a remarkable achievement.

GREETINGS TO ALL MY ISMAILI FRIENDS

I have come across this very interesting site for the Ismaili Community. I have grown up with Ismailis and a learnt a lot of nice things from them. I attended H.H. The Aga Khan School in KIGOMA (TANZANIA), studied at a school based in the AGA KHAN PALACE in Pune, India. I would be delighted to hear from my Ismaili friends all around the world. I am now a London-based author, journalist and broadcaster.

best wishes

58. A Walli - May 4, 2007

200,000 clicks! Congrats!

From reading the comments left by various people (and reading such comments has become one of the highlights of my day) it seems to me that this blog has been able to bring an amazing diversity of people together. Not only are there Ismailis from every region of the world, there are other Muslims as well as non-Muslims reading the blog and commenting on the posts. I’ve read messages from diplomats, academics, and an assortment of regular folk. In this sense, this blog represents to me an amazing example of civil society - where all types of people meet (some who may not have otherwise known each other) and engage in a positive way on an equal playing field.

59. Aziz - May 4, 2007

Congrats on hitting the 200,000 mark in number of visits in relatively short time and bringing much needed community related news.

May Mowla bless you for your service…..Ameen and wish you all the best….. Thanks.

60. Shemin - May 6, 2007

Wow, 200,000 page views already? Congratulations!

The blog recorded 100,000 page views in a really short time since its inception, and has reached the 200,000th mark in an even shorter time span!

This blog is an excellent source of news and information, maintained and presented very professionally. Keep up the good work!

Regards

61. Mirabdine (Brossard Canada) - May 6, 2007

63. easynash - May 16, 2007

I was on vacation in China when your site reached the 200,000 mark. Belated heartiest congratulations! Its interesting but I did have access to a computer in Beijing, Shanghai as well as the Silk Road cities of Urumqi, Kashgar, Turpan, Dunhuang and Xian but was not allowed access to the Ismaili Mail website. I did see all your new postings because they are mailed to my gmail account but could not get access to the actual website. Perhaps(and this is just a guess) the pointy-headed Attila the Han bureaucrats at Communist Party Central in Beijing have cut off access to your site because it is so popular and might give some undesirable ideas to Muslims in China. Nevertheless it was a fabulous visit and I will be blogging extensively about our trip on my blogsite(my wife kept a very detailed daily diary). Cheers.

64. ismailimail - May 16, 2007

Hi nash, glad to see you around, looking forward to your travelogue from China. Yes, the wordpress.com domain has recently been blocked in China. Google’s blogspot has been banned in Pakistan for sometime as well. Seems these governments are quick in blocking the undesirable contents and there seems to be nothing much people can do about it. But people always find the ways to get around and getting blog contents via email is one easy way.

65. Piyar Ali Nomalianz - May 21, 2007

Hay congrats! who ever manage this site. really this site is too much informative and great. Hay man keep it up.

66. SHer from Yasin-GHizer .Pk - May 23, 2007

YAM,

I appriciate your efforts in creating this informative link, Do focus on easy navigation of the pages.

Sher

67. ismailimail - May 23, 2007

Dear SHer,

Thank you for your kind words and suggestions.

Allow me to highlight few of the many ways to navigate this website.

Aside from the front page, which contains 15 recently made postings, you have …

Category section - where each one of the postings made at the blog have been appropriately tagged for easy find.

Then we have Popular Categories highlighted, all based on the popularity of subjects.

The Search Box at the very top also helps visitors search any topics (various other external search engines are also indexing this website).

The Random Search is one fascinating way to find postings.

Post of the Week comes in handy for critical and important posts from the past.

Our monthly Newsletters which contains summary of postings made in previous months may also be helpful to you in navigating the stories. These newsletters contains live links with summary of the stories posted at the blog.

And above all, if you scroll down the front page, you will see a link to Older Posts. With this link, you can browse all 916 posts made so far.

Hope this helps. Since this blog is a work-in-progress, we’re always open for more suggestions.

Kind Regards.

YAM - Congratulations for having initiated this wonderful information website for us who are now known as the Global Jamat! Residing in a small jamat in Bahrain, Arabian Gulf, we are very isolated from the major happenings of the Imamat Institutions apart from our usual JK activities. I hope to use the resources from your website to educate our Jamat during the Golden Jubilee Year and for our AKDN project in Autumn.
Once again, thank you for keeping all of us ‘in the loop’!

Another milestone approaching-a quarter million views-and this website is definitely on a roll, speeding along at breakneck speed. It would be interesting to know which continents, countries and cities all your readers come from. Do you have a sitemeter-type application that could tell us this kind of general information?

74. ismailimail - June 11, 2007

Dear Nash, thank you so much for your kind words and continuous support. I have not plugged in any counter to the site. However, based on the submitted comments and the number of daily visitors, Ismaili Mail Blog is reaching the far and wide corners of the world.
I am humbly thankful to all the individuals who consistently support this site by submitting stories to be shared, by visiting every day to seek new stories, and by engaging themselves via comments. It is due to the work of many people (who wish to remain anonymous) that this site is growing in popularity and contents. I would also like to share another milestone for this blog, we are few stories short of reaching 1000 posts since late last October.
All credit for the popularity of this site goes to the world wide Ismaili Community, the inspiring achievers and the great work of His Highness The Aga Khan via his various institutions and efforts. We are only - personally, individually and collectively - gathering all stories of such great work under one platform.
Thanks.

May Mawlana Hazir Imam (Salwat ula alah) Bless us ,succeed us and remain his shelter in this world & in the spirtual world and accept the services of his spirtual children and give strenth to their souls.Its the time of more resposibility for every Shia Ismaili muslim to prove himselfe as an examplary follower of Noor-un-ala- Noor,because we must prepare our self for the time when religion and its values will be commonly discussed by the world , and every Shia Ismaili is the representative of IMAM-A-MUBEEN (Alayh-e-Salam). May Mawla help us and give us wisdom and courage to prepare our self for that time Ameen .

Please dear sisters and brothers do not forget the Ismaili Jamat of Afghanistan who are experiencing extreme poverty and uncertainity in your prayers.

Islam is all about humanity and the message of golden jubilee is to take care of humanity. but question is ” where is humanity???” Just feel it within…not outside, so take care of your families, societies, enviroments, neighbours, coleagues, poors, oldage people, children and all the creatures around you.

contribute, no matter how much, little or toooo much, but contribut, to make this world a peaceful place for everybody.

Ya Ali Madad,

This site is so full of inspirtion to all of us especially during the Golden Jubilee year of our Imam and it simply urges us to unite with our brethren all over the world to share being Members of one huge family on the Globe!

The Spirit and Life, or Din and Duniya Exhibition is now in Texas, I heard Professor William Chittick at SOAS, School of Oriental and African Studies at London University on Tuesday night, the scholar of Sufism. My special day out from Birmingham to London to her him was so fulfilling. Khayar!

146. A. Walli - October 18, 2007

^^ The Spirit and Life exhibition is actually not in Texas, rather, many of the pieces from that exhibition are currently in Paris at the Louvre.

If I’m not mistaken, the exhibition currently in Texas is one on the work of the Aga Khan Trust for Culture’s Historic Cities Programme.

147. Shemin - October 20, 2007

It is nice to see brothers and sisters looking united atleast at one front. I am not an Ismaili but during my self research I have not found any considerable material which can be used to know about Ismailis’. If anyone knows some URLs or any other source just let me know. This will create inter-firqa harmony amongst us Muslims.

I discovered this site when searching for House of Manji.
The late Madatally Manji of Kenya, East Africa was a close friend of my father who built the Baring Biscuit factory and to my knowledge the Manji family owned The White House Bakery.

I would appreciate if someone can put me in touch with the Manji family. Some old pictures and historical, sentimental documents I would like to share.

The K & A family in Nairobi was very close family friends. Namely Ahmedbhai, Samsubhai.

Deep sadness at the demise of Mr. Madatally Manji.

I have always admired the Imam and the entire Ismaili Community.

The Khoja khana in Nairobi on former Government Road, was designed by my uncle Mr. Khambhaita.

Heartiest congratulations once again to the Spirit and Life Blog of Ismaili Mail for reaching another milestone 30,000+ hits: 10,000+ new hits from all four corners of the globe within 6 weeks is another clear sign of success in the life of a young blog.

192. pamirtimes - April 2, 2008

I appreciate the ongoing, unconditional, support, that Ismailimail has rendered for other smaller, regional, blogs related to Ismaili communities. The case of Pamir News Blog is one of such.

Keep going. We are with you :)

197. X-tatic about IM - April 8, 2008

I know this is a pinch early, but you are on the verge …

Congratulations to the Ismaili Mail blog on the 1,000,000 hits milestone! It is a wonderful achievement to have accomplished during the Golden Jubilee year of Mowlana Hazar Imam.

Mubarakh!

This blog has become a personal favorite of mine for several reasons, and I wanted to share those with you:

* All of your posts are accompanied by references and links to credible sources.
* Your posts are not simply copy & pastes of entire articles, but you’ve taken the time in many cases to extract particular elements of interest, and encourage the reader to go to the original source if they are interested in the rest.
* Your posts often include audio and video, allowing visitors to gain a different level of appreciation for the diversity of culture and expression within a global context.
* You’ve supported the official web-sites instead of competing with them!
* By allowing comments, but taking the time to moderate them (IE they need approval before they show up), you proactively ensure appropriateness of what readers view on the blog.
* Last but certainly not least, Ismaili Mail in my mind is a successful role model of a civil society organization on the Internet – complimenting the work of the institutions towards common goals and aspirations.

Looking forward to the day when you can say, ‘billions served’!

“By its very nature, civil society is pluralist because it seeks to speak for the multiple interests not represented by the state. The meritocracy they represent is the very foundation of pluralism. And meritocracy is one of the principles of democracy itself.”

A business that I patronize is closing for a day to observe the visit of the Prince. I didn’t know anything about him until I found your website. Thanks for the information.

200. Easy Nash - April 8, 2008

I must tell you I could not have put it any better than “X-tatic about IM” in post 197 above. This is a fast-moving site that waits for no one and I find this aspect of it exciting as well. As IM gets very close to its momentous and landmark one millionth visitor, other aspiring news website creators would be well-advised to study its simple yet profound design.

As a regular contributor to and commentator on IM and its Spirit and Life Blog as well as creator of the now trademarked phrase “much-visited and wildly popular Ismaili Mail website”, I congratulate the creator of IM on setting up and maintaining a news site that reaches hundreds of thousands of people(maybe millions) from 6 continents on our terrestrial planet Earth.

201. Shemin - April 8, 2008

Congratulations, Ismaili Mail Blog, you will be reaching the million hits in a matter of hours. Its a wonderful achievement to have achieved this milestone in such a short span of time and especially more so, for attaining this mark during the GJ year!

An excellent and truly professional effort by Ismaili Mail Blog of capturing and highlighting all the news about the Imamat, the work of the Imamat Institutions, and the Ismaili Muslim Community worldwide. Post 197 above describes it best.

Congratulations once again, and best wishes for Ismail Mail Blog’s continued efforts!

I must say, once again, that your coverage of Mawlana Hazar Imam’s visit to the USA is shaping up to be as good as if not better than your coverage of the Dubai visit. Good going!
