Mohammad Ezzuddin

Mausoleum syedna Mohammad Ejuddin,Zabeed,Yemen

Syedna Mohammad Ezzuddin (died 1539 / 27th Safar, AH 946AH in Zabeed -Yemen) was the 23rd Dai of Dawoodi Bohra, a sub-sect of Shia Islam.[1] The Dawoodi Bohra trace their belief system back to Yemen, where it evolved from the Fatimid Caliphate and where they were persecuted due to their differences from mainstream Sunni Islam and Zaydi Shia Islam. Around 1530 CE, the Dawat was relocated to India.

He succeeded the 22nd Dai, Syedna Ali Shamshuddin, and conferred succession on Syedna Yusuf Najmuddin. Syedna Mohammed Izzuddin was the 17th Dai from Ale Waleed and the last of Duat Kiram from Yemen.
