This article seems to have been written from a biased POV. I don't think Nizar was a caliph as he raised an unsuccessful rebellion against his exclusion and died in prison - although there are ancillary details on the Nizari sect. Can anyone add more relevant details?--AssegaiAli (talk) 09:24, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

POV June 2014

There are no sources provided. Article is written purely from Nizari Ismaili point of view. The majority of historians contest Nizar did not even have a son, as I understand it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.84.231.100 (talk) 20:05, 2 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
