— NEW: Aga Khan IV, Prince Karim Al-Husseini, the 49th 'Imam' of Nizari Ismaeli Shiites, has passed away at age 88.

Nizari Ismaeli Shiites believe that he was their 49th infallible Imam, a physical representative of God on earth, descending directly from the Prophet Muhammad ‎ﷺ. He was born in Geneva in 1936, and ascended to the Imamate in 1957.

With an estimated net worth of over $15 Billion USD, Agha Khan IV was one of the richest faith leaders in the entire world.

Ismaeli Shiites make up less than 1% of the Shiite population, the other 99% being the Twelvers ('Imamis', found mostly in Iran, Iraq, Bahrain, etc.) and Seveners ('Zaidis', found mostly in Yemen). These two groups consider Ismaelis to be disbelievers, as they have omitted several pillars of Islam over the years.

Among other things, Ismaeli Shiites do not believe in prayer being obligatory, and they do not believe in fasting during Ramadan. They also believe the Quran was time-bound, and that it is irrelevant today. Their 'Imam' has been seen dancing with women and consuming alcohol.
