The Ismāʿīlī (Urdu: اسماعیلی Ismāʿīlī, Arabic: الإسماعيليون al-Ismāʿīliyyūn; Persian: اسماعیلیان Esmāʿīliyān) branch of Islam is the second largest part of the Shī'a community, after the Twelvers (Ithnāʿashariyya). The Ismāʿīlī get their name from their acceptance of Ismāʿīl ibn Jaʿfar as the successor-Imām to Jaʿfar aṣ-Ṣādiq, wherein they differ from the Ithnāʿashariyya, who accept Musa al-Kazim, younger brother of Ismail, as their Imam.

Though there are several sub-groupings within the Ismailis, the term in today's vernacular generally refers to the Nizārī Ismāʿīlī community, who are followers of the Aga Khan and the largest group among the Ismailis.

Ismaili Muslims believe Ali (RA) was the “Amir-ul-mu'minin” (Leader of the Believers)

Ismailies display ridicule and contempt to the Prophet (SAW) and the Quran every day with their non-prophetic methods of prayer, fasting (without food or drink) during the month of Ramadan which many Ismailies do not feel obliged to do, and Pilgrimage to the Holy Mosque in Mecca, which is not obligatory for Ismailies, but is for all other Muslims. All these deeds are mentioned in the second chapter of the Quran, but are not enforced by the Ismaili Imam on his followers.

When Ismailies are in their mosque the leaders of the prayer face the congregation, not the Holy Ka’ba

Initially Ismailies say that they seek help from Allah alone, yet as the Du’a progresses they turn to Ali (RA) and then to the Hazar Imam for help also. All Muslims have undeniable proof that Ali (RA) was a righteously steadfast believer in Allah, however he is not alive today, and therefore cannot help any Ismaili or Non-Ismaili now. When Ismailies greet each other they say “Ya Ali Madad,” meaning “Oh Ali Bring Aid.” Within the first few verses of their Du’a, Ismailies declare their conviction to Allah ALONE, yet later on in their Du’a (and for the remainder of the day, they greet each other and) they ask for the aid of Ali (RA) and their Imam. Another practice of Ismailism, is the Urdu invocation which in English translates to be: “O Hussein, please wake up my sleeping destiny now.” This is essentially a prayer to the son of Ali (RA), whether an Ismaili admits it or not. Also, the Ismaili supplication “Nade Ali” recited in Arabic, translates as:

“Call Ali! Call Ali! Call aloud to Ali who is the manifestation of wonders. You shall surely find him helping in your troubles. All grief and anxiety will disappear By Your power and Authority! O Ali! O Ali! O Ali!”
