Sulaymani

EN Texto em inglês Ainda não há artigo no seu idioma: trecho em inglês.

The Sulaymani branch of Tayyibi Isma'ilism is an Islamic community, of which around 200,000 members reside in Yemen and around 470,000 in Najran, Saudi Arabia, while a few thousand Sulaymani Bohras can be found in India. The Sulaymanis are sometimes headed by a Da'i al-Mutlaq from the Makrami family. It is not correct to assume that this branch is always headed by someone from the Makrami family, as the Da'i al Mutlaq could be from other families and communities. Examples: the first Da'i was Dhuayb Bin Mousa from the Banu Hamdan, Dawud Bin Ajab Shah was an Indian, Sulayman Bin Al Hassan was an Indian and some of his brothers and sons were Indians. It is true, however, that for the very recent Da'is they have came from the Makrami family, with the exception of the late Da'i Abdullah bin Mohammad, who was not from the Makrami family.
