New research in the field of history of ismailis and their historical sources, especially after the first decades of the twentieth century has experienced an upward trend that continues to this day. The discovery and identification of numerous collections of Ismaili sources exposed scholars in this field to a wide range of primitive manuscripts that required correction, research, and translation. Another stage of this development was the re-reading of the history of the Ismailis and the various political, social, economic, religious, jurisprudential and theological aspects of this sect, which had previously been written based on a relatively one-sided narration from Sunni sources; And now, by simultaneously referring to the numerous Ismaili sources, they were exposed to criticism and revision. Ismaili historiography, meanwhile, has been the subject of little independent research. New research in the field of Ismaili historiography is important in two respects: The first aspect is to identify, edit and introduce the Ismaili historiographical sources, and the second aspect is to use these sources in re-reading the Ismaili history. In the second aspect, little research has been done. In this article, by adopting a historical-interpretive method, we seek to answer the basic question: to what extent has the neglect of Ismaili historiographical sources been effective in presenting a false picture of the political-religious history of ismailis?
