We are the followers of the 53rd Dai al-Mutlaq, His Holiness, Syedna AaliQadr Mufaddal Saifuddin Saheb (TUS) and the Shia-Fatemi Ismaili Tayyebi Dawoodi Bohras, known all over the world as Dawoodi Bohras. We profess Islam and adhere to our faith by entering the fold of Dawat-e-Hadiyah, the centuries old mission of Allah, whose Lord is the Fatemi Imam, a direct descendant of Prophet Mohammed al-Mustafa (SAW). During the seclusion of the Imam, the mission is carried on and conducted on his behalf by Al-Dai al-Mutlaq as the Imam’s vicegerent and representative. Al-Dai al-Mutlaq guides and leads his followers to practice their faith in accordance with the principles of Islam and the tenets of Dawat-e-Hadiyah.
The 53rd Dai al-Mutlaq is the pivot around which the Dawoodi Bohra Community flourishes. His serenity, inspired leadership and practical guidance have greatly influenced them to be staunch followers. His word is sacred to them who love and venerate him with unquestioning devotion. This has strengthened their bond of loyalty and dedication to Dawat-e-Hadiyah, has ensured the unity of faith amongst them throughout the world, has bound the community together as a single entity and preserved its identity. His Holiness, Syedna Mufaddal Saifuddin Saheb (TUS) has led the Dawoodi Bohra Community into an era of fresh vibrancy and renewed zeal by devoting his efforts to the preservation of Fatemi heritage. He has ushered in a spiritual reawakening by guiding his followers to adhere closely to Quranic injunctions in their everyday lives.
