Drawing extensively on the testimony of the Persian historians of the seventh-eighth hijri centuries (corresponding to the thirteen-fourteenth centuries of the Christian era), this article sketches a detailed picture of several personalities involved in founding the nascent Ismaili state centred at Alamūt in the fifth/eleventh century.

His Highness Prince Karim, the fourth Aga Khan, has been the spiritual leader of 15 million Shia Ismaili Muslims, building a hugely effective global development network. In Chantilly, home to France’s most prestigious horse race, James Reginato explores how the press-shy, Harvard-educated prince, at 76, fuses two worlds.

It is from Islam that we in the West can extend a lot of gratitude towards, for preserving works of antiquity from being completely lost to us. This is not something to be passed over lightly, as so many people might tend to do, when considering the past. The implications here are great. Outside of the surviving schools of the Thebaid brethren, and the Jewish schools in France, Spain, and Southern Germany, intellectual culture did not exist, in the West during the so-called Dark Ages. The degradation brought upon society by the Church lasted until...

BUJE MARAG PIR SADARDIN KERA,
JO HAY SADA KABUL;
SAB NABIYO KA SARDAR HAY,
SO DULLE NABI RASUL.

O momin, the rue path shown by Pir Sadardin
Is the path accepted by the almighty ALLAH, the 'NOOR-EN-ALLAH-NOOR.' Hazrat Muhammad Mustafa Rasul S.AS. Is the 'SHANSHAH.' The 'NOORANI' crown, the head of all the PAYGAMBERS - O momins say the holy salwat: ALLAHUMA SALI ALA MUHAMMADIN WA AALE MUHAMMAD.

The ocean of Maya is extraordinarily deep and unfathomable; it could be swum in the event an ant could swim across the vast ocean! But it is possible to overcome Maya (ILLUSION) with 'THE GINAN,' with deep love and devotion to the 'NOOR-EN-ALLAH NOOR HAZER IMAM. Mowla Ali Hazer Imam -alone can shower his divine blessings, divine grace, by which the incredibly powerful Maya can be combated.
WHAT IS MAYA? AND HOW IS IT POSSIBLE TO SWIM THE OCEAN OF MAYA?

HISTORY OF RAJA GOVERCHAND
FROM PIR SHAMS' 'RAJA GOVERCHAND AKHYAN'

A RULER OF BENGAL RENUNCIATES HIS GADI (ROYAL THRONE) IN THE SEARCH OF SPIRITUAL HAPPINESS AND ELEVATION

After having attended to all the Royal court's daily affairs, Raja Goverchand retired to his royal palace. Upon arrival Rajaji's beloved, beautiful queens and maids received Rajaji at the entrance and gave him great affection, love and respect. Thereafter Rajaji was requested to sit on the golden Bajot (Seat), before the queens could give him a sponge bath, perfume his charming body and refresh him.

There was a king UGARSEN of MATHURA in India. He had both an over ambitious son, KANS, and a pious daughter, DEKVI. At the time of DEVKI'S marriage to another king VASUDEVJI, during the ceremony, there was an amazing and mysterious sound from the sky, 'O KANS there will be born a child (it will be the EIGHTH child) to DEVKI who will be your killer.'

SATI DRUPATI'S PRAYER TO HERBELOVED LORD SHRI KRISHNA

AN INCREDIBLE, AMAZING EFFECT OF HER
MOST SINCERE AND HUMBLE PRAYER

SATI DRUPATI was spiritually most intimate and close to her beloved SHRI KRISHNA - The Eighth Carnation of SHRI VISHNU (THE ALI). At time of distress and difficulty, whether material or spiritual, SATI DRUPATI prayed to her beloved LORD KRISHNA from the depth of her heart and soul. She prayed with unshaken faith that her beloved SHRI KRISHNA would do everything for her-she had deep faith that nothing was impossible for SHRI KRISHNA, the Lord Of The Age.

The supreme divinity's (PAR BRAHAM'S) MAYA (illusion) is undoubtedly unfathomable - even the ASHAT CROR BRAHMAS (Prophets) have not been able to fathom his MAYA it is not in the least surprising.

Immediately, there occurred friction with the PANDIT BRAHMINS, the BRAHMINS expressed their dislike of SHRI BUDHA himself has come to our door. When he was in KRISHNA AVTAR he made a specific Firman to us not to engage in any YAGNA ceremony. Now the significance of YAGNA does not stand in the least.'

KHUDAI 'NOOR' as the NINTH INCARNATION of SHRI VISHNU- Lord SHRI BUDHA or Adam (approximately 4050 BC), became manifest in HAZARAT SHISH (SETH) ALEHISALAAM. Through HAZARAT SHISH it descended through the unbroken divine line of 'NOOR' bearers shown below. ( some important and familiar prophets with the 'NOOR-E-ALI'S' Manifestation of the time are also shown.)

THE DASMO NAKLANKI AVTAR,
MOWLA SHAH MURTAZA ALI (A.S.)

Hazarat MOWLA MURTAZA ALI was born in Macca at Kaa'ba Shariff, the holiest place in Arabia, the House Of God. Mowla Murtaza Ali's mother was Mata Bibi Zuleikha, and father HASHAMI ABU TALIB. When Mowla Murtaza Ali was born, our beloved Holy prophet Muhammad S.A.S was thirty years of age; and prophet Muhammad was revealed as THE NABI at the time Mowla Ali was ten years old.

During the lifetime of Mowla Ali's father, Hazarat Abu Talib's, the KAFFIRS, although creating a lot of difficulties for Prophet Muhammad in his preaching of Islam, were not able to go very far with their plans. But in the eleventh year of Prophet hood, Hazarat Abu Talib passed away from this world, and the KAFFIRS planned to kill the Prophet S.A.S.
Our Holy Prophet Muhammad decided not to stay in Macca any longer and to move to Medina. Mowla Murtaza Ali and Prophet Muhammmad also advised the faithful momins to migrate from Mecca to Medina.
