In the early 10th century, a group of Berbers from Algeria braved the desert heat and set out on a pilgrimage to Mecca. There, they met an Ismaili dai and were so impressed by his knowlege and erudition, that they invited him back to North Africa with them to set up the conditions for an Ismaili state. This state was named after Hazrat Bibi Fatima, beloved daughter of Prophet Muhammad and his wife Khadija (peace be upon them and their progeny). As Dr Shainool Jiwa explains in the latest episode of Muslim Footprints, this is the start of a remarkable story.
