Ismaili Islam Explained: Conversion, Bay‘ah & Spiritual Commitment

Описание: How to Convert from Another Sect to the Ismaili Sect (Nizari Ismaili Shia)

If someone from another Islamic sect—such as Sunni, Twelver Shia, or any other tradition—wishes to join the Nizari Ismaili Shia sect, this is a deeply personal, spiritual, and lifelong decision.

This video explains the complete and authentic process of becoming Ismaili, based on official Ismaili principles, not rumors or sectarian claims.

🔑 Key Focus of Ismaili Conversion

Unlike general conversion to Islam, joining the Ismaili community is centered on bay‘ah—
a voluntary oath of allegiance to the living Imam, currently Prince Rahim Aga Khan.

Bay‘ah is:

A spiritual covenant, not a political act

A lifelong commitment, not a temporary step

Based on knowledge, consent, and sincerity, not coercion
