List of massacres of Nizari Ismailis information


Numerous massacres are recorded against the minority Nizari Ismaili Shia Muslims, particularly during the Alamut Period.[1]

In many cases, the victims include non-Nizaris; such as supporters of the Nizaris, and people who are falsely accused and killed due to personal enmity.

The Nizari response was often the assassination of the leader behind the massacre.[1]
