The article cites "According to Ṭayyibī Musta‘lid Isma‘ili Muslims, aṭ-Ṭayyib Abī l-Qāṣim ((lang-ar|الطيب أبي القاسم)) was the 21st and last Fatimid Imām". But actually he is not thought to be LAST Imam. He is considered to be in Occultation in which his sons after sons are also Imams. Ali Asgher (talk) 08:10, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

His fate was unknown

User:Cplakidas If his fate was unknown, then he could have died or he could have been killed or alternatively he could have lived on. You undid my revision removing the speculation of him having died. If you want to add speculations by historians, you can do so by explicitly saying that later in the article. In the said speculation, the article says:

In the ensuing power struggle, al-Tayyib's fate is unknown: he may have died or been killed by one of the rival strongmen.

I'm simply correcting it to:

Amidst the ensuing power struggle, the fate of al-Tayyib remains uncertain.

Which is a perfectly sound thing to do. DistributorScientiae (talk)
