Are Khojas Muslim, Hindu, or Something Else? The Truth Will Shock You

🕌 "You Don’t Know the Beliefs of the Khoja Community – Are They Muslim or Something Else?"

The Khoja community is one of the most unique and misunderstood groups in South Asia. Their origins are deeply rooted in history, culture, and spiritual transformation. In this in-depth video, we uncover the mystery of Khoja beliefs — a community that has long sparked debate: Are they truly Muslim, or is their faith something far more complex?

Originating in Gujarat, India, during the 14th century, the Khojas were once Hindu traders who converted to Ismaili Islam under the guidance of Pir Sadardin. But their spiritual path didn’t end there. Over centuries, their beliefs evolved, blending elements of Shia Islam, Sufism, and South Asian cultural practices — resulting in a unique identity that many people still struggle to categorize.

This documentary explores:

The early history and conversion of the Khoja community

Their connection with the Ismaili Imams and the Aga Khan

The division between Khoja Ismailis and Khoja Ithna Asharis (Twelvers)

Their rituals, traditions, and cultural symbols

And the modern-day identity crisis: Are Khojas still Muslim in the traditional sense?


Through historical references, interviews, and community insights, this video provides a rare window into a community that has preserved its beliefs against all odds — yet continues to evolve with time.
