	The Institute of Ismaili Studies - The Ismaili Da'wa Outside the Fatimid dawla (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The new caliphate and dynasty came to be known as Fatimid (Fatimiyya), derived from the name of the Prophet’s daughter Fatima, to whom al-Mahdi and his successors traced their ancestry.
		It was in reaction to the success of the da‘wa in Iraq that the ‘Abbasid caliph al-Qadir (381-422/991-1031) launched a series of military campaigns against the refractories as well as an anti-Fatimid literary campaign, culminating in the Baghdad manifesto of 402/1011 denouncing the Fatimids and refuting their `Alid genealogy.
		That Ismailism survived at all the downfall of the Fatimid dynasty was, thus, mainly due to the astonishing record of success achieved by the Ismaili da‘wa of Fatimid times outside the confines of the Fatimid dawla.
