The
ismaili sect of
Islam is a subset of the
Shia sect. However
Shias believe in the 12-descendant line of
Imams beginning with
Hazrat Ali[?], cousin of Prophet
Muhammad, and the Ismailis have faith in 6
Imams.
Modern spiritual leader of the Ismaili sect is the Agha Khan[?], who traces his ancestry from the 6th Imam.
