Allama Naseer Hunzai passes away
In a tweet, his son Izhar Hunzai said the body of his father was being brought from Austin, US, for burial in his native town of Hunza. https://twitter.com/IzharH/status/820551115322363905 It may be noted that a couple of years ago, the government of Pakistan banned Khana-e-Farhang of Allama Hunzai and froze its accounts. Allama Hunzai wrote hundreds of books on Islam, especially the Ismailism, besides research work on the Brushashki language of Gilgit-Baltistan.]]>

A few corrections on the news story.
1. Although he was born an Ismaili but he was more a sufi poet and theophilosopher. Every sufi poet of his time, be it Molana Rum, Shams Tabrez, Mansoor Hllaj, Bullhay shah, Rahman Baba etc has been controversial thanks to Mullah power in the street.
2. His authored books mostly covered Sufism and esoterism than on purely Ismaili tariqa
3. His writings were not endorsed by the Ismaili Tariqa board due to repressive coercion by the state and its Mullah deobandi alliance despite the fact that Quran explicitly says; “There is no COMPULSION in religion”!
