assalamu alaykum,<BR><BR>I am 'akangmalik' and a brief introduction about my self ;I converted to islam 7 years ago. I have an interest in sufism and advaita vedanta.  Im trying to learn more about the ismaili  faith. My first encounter with ismailis was through friends.  So far I have read Farhad Daftar's The Ismailis and some stuff by Henri Corbin.   I want to learn more about the ismaili concept of imamate and how it differs from the ithna ashari views and also gnosis in ismaili faith.  I hope to meet knowledgeable people here.<BR><BR>
