                    while in Najaf they met the Mujtahid of the time, Sheikh Zainul Aabedeen Mazandarani.
                    During their discussions they realised that there was a need for a teacher to come to
                    India to teach the community Islam. Soon after, at the behest of Sheikh Mazandarani, Mulla
                    Kader Hussein arrived in India and some Khoja families left the Ismaili sect and learnt
                    from Mulla Kader the principles of Shia Ithnaasheri faith.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.africafederation.org/newlook/official/aboutus.htm"><FONT color="#000000">From these few families the community has
                    now grown to well over 100,000 Khoja Shia Ithnaasheries. The overall number is still very
                    small when considering that there are an estimated 60 - 90 million Shia Ithnaasheries in
                    the world today. The Ismaili Khojas number over 270 thousand and there are still a handful
                    of Sunni Khojas.</FONT></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/283C7252-5E09-4143-8E72-3DCD81228864/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
