Hutayb

Al-Hutayb lies among the mountains of Haraz west of Sanaa, in the highlands of Yemen. The village is associated with the Tayyibi Ismaili community and the tomb of Hatim ibn Ibrahim, its third da'i al-mutlaq, who died here in 1199. His resting place became a focus of devotion for followers whose religious ties connected Yemen with communities across the Indian Ocean.
