A branch of Musta士li Ismailis. Upon the death of the 20th Imam of the Musta士li Ismailis, the Fatimid Caliph al-膧mir bi-A岣膩m All膩h, the official Musta士li da士wa in Cairo, along with the majority of Musta士lian Ismailis in both Egypt and Syria, and some Musta士lians in Yemen, recognised al-膧mir鈥檚 cousin, al-岣つ乫i岷 as the next Imam-Caliph. These Musta士li Ismailis became known initially as the Majidiyya and then as the Hafiziyya or Hafizis. The Zurayids of Aden and some of the Hamdanids of Sana鈥檃 also supported the Hafizi da士wa. Hafizis seem to have disappeared soon after the demise of the Fatimid caliphate in 1171 CE.
