One thought

  1. I have always admired Prince Amyn Aga Khan for his role in always standing by his brother our Beloved Imam and have never forgotten when The Aga Khan was appointed our Imam by his grandfather, Prince Amyn immediately bowed all the way down to The Aga Khans feet to give his full support throughout the Imamat. Have always admired him standing by our Imam at all times.
