Ali Shams Al-Din II
Ali Shams al-Din () ( ar, ʿAlī Shams al-Dīn ibn ʿAbdallāh ibn al-Walīd) was the 18th Tayyibi Isma'ili '' Dāʿī al-Muṭlaq'' in Yemen. He succeeded his brother al-Hasan Badr al-Din I in 1418, and held the post until his death in 1428, when he was succeeded by his nephew (al-Hasan's son) Idris Imad al-Din. Life After the death of Hasan, Ali took up residence in the fortress of Dhu Marmar. But in 1426, the Zaydi imam of Sana'a, al-Mansur Ali (), captured Dhu Marmar after a siege, but allowed the ''Dāʿī'' with his family, followers, and possessions to leave the town and move to Haraz, which became the new base of the Tayyibi movement. The Tayyibis also lost a number of other fortresses to the Zaydis at this time, which were later recovered by Idris Imad al-Din. Ali then moved to Af'eda and then to Shibaam. It was during his tenure that there was a major split into Sunni Bohra led by Jafar bin Khwaja, a native of Patan, Gujarat in Gujarat, India. This split caused d ...

Tayyibi Isma'ilism
Tayyibi Isma'ilism is the only surviving sect of the Musta'li branch of Isma'ilism, the other being the extinct Hafizi branch. Followers of Tayyibi Isma'ilism are found in various Bohra communities: Dawoodi, Sulaymani, and Alavi. The Tayyibi originally split from the Fatimid Caliphate-supporting Hafizi branch by supporting the right of at-Tayyib Abu'l-Qasim to the Imamate. History Upon the death of the twentieth Imam, al-Amir bi-Ahkam Allah (d. ), his two-year-old child at-Tayyib Abu'l-Qasim (b. ) was appointed the twenty-first Imam. As he was not in a position to run the Dawah, Queen Arwa al-Sulayhi, the Da'i al-Mutlaq, acted as his regent. The Da'i had now been given absolute authority and made independent from political activity. Da'i Zoeb bin Moosa Da'i Zoeb bin Moosa used to live in and died in Hoos, Yemen.

15th-century Arabs
The 15th century was the century which spans the Julian dates from 1 January 1401 ( MCDI) to 31 December 1500 ( MD).

Burials In Yemen
Burial, also known as interment or inhumation, is a method of final disposition whereby a dead body is placed into the ground, sometimes with objects. This is usually accomplished by excavating a pit or trench, placing the deceased and objects in it, and covering it over. A funeral is a ceremony that accompanies the final disposition. Humans have been burying their dead since shortly after the origin of the species. Burial is often seen as indicating respect for the dead. It has been used to prevent the odor of decay, to give family members closure and prevent them from witnessing the decomposition of their loved ones, and in many cultures it has been seen as a necessary step for the deceased to enter the afterlife or to give back to the cycle of life. Methods of burial may be heavily ritualized and can include natural burial (sometimes called "green burial"); embalming or mummification; and the use of containers for the dead, such as shrouds, coffins, grave liners, and ...

Year Of Birth Unknown
A year or annus is the orbital period of a planetary body, for example, the Earth, moving in its orbit around the Sun. Due to the Earth's axial tilt, the course of a year sees the passing of the seasons, marked by change in weather, the hours of daylight, and, consequently, vegetation and soil fertility. In temperate and subpolar regions around the planet, four seasons are generally recognized: spring, summer, autumn and winter. In tropical and subtropical regions, several geographical sectors do not present defined seasons; but in the seasonal tropics, the annual wet and dry seasons are recognized and tracked. A calendar year is an approximation of the number of days of the Earth's orbital period, as counted in a given calendar. The Gregorian calendar, or modern calendar, presents its calendar year to be either a common year of 365 days or a leap year of 366 days, as do the Julian calendars. For the Gregorian calendar, the average length of the calendar year ( ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
