List of titles used by the followers of Ismailism, a branch of Shia Islam.

The titles are of Persian and Arabic origin.

Nizari Ismaili titles[edit]

The hierarchy (hudūd) of the organization of the Nizari Ismailis of the Alamut period was as follows:

  • Imām (امام), the descendants of Nizar
  • Dā'ī ad-Du'āt (داعی الدعات literally 'Da'i of the Da'is'), 'Chief Da'i'
  • Dā'ī kabīr (داعی کبیر) – 'Superior Da'i', 'Great Da'i'
  • Dā'ī (داعی, literally 'missionary') – 'Ordinary Da'i', 'Da'i'
  • Rafīq (رفیق, literally 'companion, assistance, fellow-traveler'), plural rafīqān (رفیقان)
  • Lāṣiq (لاصق, literally 'adherent'). Lasiqs had to swear a special oath of obedience to the Imam.
  • Fidā'ī (فدائی, literally 'self-sacrificer')

Imam and da'is were the elites, while the majority of the sect consisted of the last three grades who were peasants and artisans.[1]

Other titles include:

The titles Bābā (بابا; Persian equivalent of the Arabic Shaykh, 'Old Man') and Sayyidinā (Sayyidnā) (سیدنا; literally 'Our Lord' or 'Our Master') was used by the Nizaris to refer to Hassan-i Sabbah.[2]
