Cision dans le mouvement Ismaelien: Naissance de la secte Druze a la mort de l'Imam Al-Hakim

Imam Zahir was born on the 10th of Ramazan, 395AH (1005AD) in Cairo.

Mowlana Imam Hakem bi Amrillah ascended the Throne of Imamate at the young age of eleven years. Many forces in the pursuit of power actively sought to undermine the security of the Fatimid Empire during his reign, including the Abbasid Caliph of Baghdad, Qadir Billah. The Imam left his palace, never to be seen again, on the 27th of Shawwal, 411AH (1021AD) - an event that would cause a few to split from the main branch of Ismailis in their belief that the Imam had ascended to heaven and would not return for a thousand years. This sect would come to be known as the Druzes.

The twenty-one year rule of Imam Aziz marks the height of the Fatimid rule, with the empire securing regions as far as Yemen, Damascus, and Palestine to the lands bordering on the Atlantic Ocean. Espousing a culture of religious freedom of practice, the resulting peace and prosperity attracted many non-Muslims and foreigners to make their home within the perimeters of the vast empire.

Mowlana Imam Aziz was born on the 14th of Muharram, 344AH (953AD), in Qairwan.

During his seven years of Imamate and Caliphate, Imam Mansoor as the third Fatimid Caliph, encountered many forces which were actively seeking to undermine the security of the Fatimid Empire, most notably the Kharijis, led by Abu-Yezid Khariji and later by his son Fazal, and the Umayyad ruler in Spain. Despite these pressures, the boundaries of the Fatimid territory were maintained and the Ismaili dawa, under the leadership of Pir Abdul Majid bin Pir Ghalibuddin, spread as far as Afghanistan (Aziz, 1974).

Imam Qaim succeeded his father to the Throne of Imamat at the age of 42 years, and his Imamate lasted for a period of 12 years in which he conquered Genoa, Sardinia, and Corsica in order to curb piracy at the Mediterranean Sea. He passed away in the city his father had founded, namely Mehdia (formerly known as Mehdavia), at the age of 54 on the 13th of Shawwal 334AH (946AD).

Imam Mansoor was born in 302AH (913AD) in Qairwan.

Imam Al-Mehdi founded the Fatimid Empire, named after the Holy Prophet's daughter Fatima, in the year 910AD in the city of Qayrawan. During his rule as the first Fatimid Caliph, the dynasty spread as far as Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Sicily, Italy and Southern Spain.

The demise of Imam Razi Abdullah in Salamiya in the year 876AD marks the end of the concealment period known in Ismaili historiography as the dawr al-satr.

Imam Razi Abdullah was born on the 12th of Shaban, 210AH (825AD), in Mahmoudabad (formerly, Muhammedabad), near Rey (now Tehran).

Imam Taqi Muhammed was born on the 12th of Rajab, 174AH (790AD), in Muhammedabad.
