Ḥasan alā dhikrihi al-salām

The Qā’im and Qiyāma Doctrines in the Thought of Fāṭimid and Alamūt Ismāʿīlism: The Evolution of a Doctrine

in

This extraordinary narrative account vividly depicts a declaration proclaimed on 8th August 11642, during the Islamic month of Ramaḍān just after noon in the mountain fortresses of Alamūt. The orator of this quite unprecedented address was none other than the Nizārī Ismāʿīlī Imām Ḥasan II, designated by the Ismāʿīlīs with the honorific title of ʿalā dhikrihi al-salām („upon whose remembrance be peace‟).
