Ibn Hani the Shia poet of Andalus has imported Ismailia beliefs to his poems and defended them. One of these beliefs is that the holy religious history is periodic. According to this theory, human history is formed of 7 periods, and each period is recognized by an orator, executer and 7 Imams. The orators of 7 periods are the following prophets: Adam, Noah, Ibrahim, Moses, Jesus, Mohammad and Qayyim al Qiyamah; and each has a special period. The first 6 orators are Ulul’Azm and each one has brought a Sharia which transformed the former orator’s Sharia. They are called As’habSharayi. Ibn Hani in his poem book mentions that Mu'izz li-Din Allah - the FatimiKhalifa – is continuant of former prophets and he has the duty of interpretation. Other branches which has been brought up in Ibn Hani’s poems arediscussions about Ahd, Vasi and Imamat.
