He succeeded the 14th Dai Syedna Abdul Muttalib to the religious post and was the 10th Dai from the lineage of al-Waleed.

Life

Abbas ibn Muhammad became Da'i al-Mutlaq in 746 AH^[2]/1354 AD. His period of Dawat was from 746–779 AH/1354–1377 AD for about twenty-three years.

Syedna Abbas greatly stressed on obligatory prayers, those who showed laxity or negligence were deprived of his audience. He also ordered that no one be allowed to study Ta'awil until they were well versed in Zahir (Islam) of Sharia.

He entrusted Syedna Abdallah Fakhr al-Din to administer the territory of Haraaz.
