Blessed is He who made

Constellations in the skies,

And placed therein a Lamp

And a Moon giving light.

And it is He who made

The Night and the Day

To follow each other:

For such as have the will

To celebrate His praises

Or to show their gratitude.

The children of Adam,

created of the self-same clay,

are members of one body.

When one member suffers, all

members suffer, likewise. O

Thou, who art indifferent to

the suffering of the fellow,

thou art unworthy to be

called a man.

Of thy Lord with wisdom

And beautiful preaching:

And argue with them

In ways that are best

And most gracious:

For thy Lord knoweth best,

Who have strayed from His

Path,

And who receive guidance.

And hold fast

All together, by the Rope

Which God (stretches for

you), and be not divided

Among yourselves:

And remember with gratitude

God’s favour on you:

For ye were enemies

And He joined your hearts

In love, so that by His Grace,

Ye became brethren:

And ye were on the brink

Of the Pit of Fire

And he saved you from it.

Thus doth God make

His Signs clear to you:

That ye may be guided.

Holy Quran 3:103

“…. my responsibilities as spiritual leader and interpreter of the faith are coupled with a deep commitment to improving the quality of life. These activities are not limited to the Ismaili community but extend to those who share their lives, whether on a local, national or international scale. Our duty is to try to free people from poverty. And to me, poverty means being without shelter, without protection, without access to healthcare, education, or credit, and without hope of ever controlling one’s own destiny.” Mawlana Hazar Imam Antananarivo, Madagascar November 27, 2007

O ye who believe!

Celebrate the praises of God,

And do this often:

And glorify Him

Morning and evening.

He it is Who sends

Blessings on you, as do

His angels. That He may

Bring you out from the depths

Of Darkness into Light:

And He is full of mercy

To the Believers.

“...the ethic of exploration and interconnectedness is one that is deeply shared by the Ismaili community. It is an ethic, in fact, that is firmly rooted in our faith — a value system which grows from deeply spiritual roots. It understands that human diversity is itself a gift of Allah — that pluralism is not a threat but a blessing. It sees the desire to explore and connect as a way to learn and grow…. This ethic emanates ultimately from a relationship to the Divine which inspires a deep sense of personal humility — and a relationship to humankind which is infused with a spirit of generous service and mutual respect.” Mawlana Hazar Imam Inauguration of The Ismaili Centre, Dubai March 26, 2008

“Pluralism means not only accepting, but embracing human difference. It sees the world’s variety as a blessing rather than a burden,

regarding encounters with the “Other” as opportunities rather than as threats.

Pluralism does not mean homogenization - denying what is different to seek

superficial accommodation ….Pluralism means

reconciling what is unique in our individual traditions with a profound sense of what

connects us to all of humankind.”
