Nuqtavi

Iranian Sufi mystic order in Shia Islam

The Nuqtavi movement was founded by Mahmoud Pasikhani when he proclaimed himself the Mahdi in 1397. The group is an offshoot of Hurufism, from which Pasīkhānī was expelled for arrogance. The group first arose in Anjudan near Kashan an area known for its Nizari Isma'ili Shia Islam. The group attempted to proclaim Tahmasp I as Mahdi after Pasikhani died.
