Muhammad ibn Hatim (Arabic: محمد بن حاتم, romanized: Muḥammad ibn Ḥātim) was the twelfth Tayyibi Isma'ili dāʿī al-muṭlaq in Yemen, in 1328–29.[1]
Muhammad ibn Hatim tenure was one of the shortest among the Yemeni dāʿīs.
He succeeded Ibrahim ibn al-Husayn, and was in turn succeeded by Ibrahim's son, Ali Shams al-Din I.[1]
Family edit
He was the grandson of the eighth dāʿī, al-Husayn ibn Ali. He had three sons, Ali, Abd al-Muttalib and Abbas.
Tomb edit
His grave, along with those of the 11th and 13th dāʿīs, were hidden and unknown until recently, when the archaeological authority of Yemen, along with Dawoodi Bohras living there, located them on Hisn Af'ida. On 25 November 2018, Mufaddal Saifuddin, the 53rd dāʿī al-muṭlaq, unveiled its existence.
