Bibliography

This book is about the beliefs of Ismailis. Two major sects within the
Ismailis are the Agha Khanis who believe in 49 Imams and the Bohras who
believe in 21 Imams. However both the Agha Khanis and the Bohras believe
Ismail as an Imam, who was the son of Imam al-Sadiq (as) and they reject
Musa al-Kadhim s/o Imam al-Sadiq (as). This book investigates the
authenticity of the Ismaili/Fatimid Imams whether they were really
divine.
