The ismaili origin of the hindu cult of Rāmdeo Pīr The cult of the Hindu deity Rāmdeo is now very popular in Rajasthan, among devotees of all castes and creeds ; however it is traditionnally linked with certain untouchable communities. The numerous Muslim elements which are conspicuous in this tradition have generally been ascribed to vague Sufi influences. Rāmdeo was actually an Ismaili Pīr whose grand-father had been converted by the Nizari missionary Shams-al-din Sabzwari.
