There is a difference between asking for intercession, and worshipping the Imam.

Ismailis don't pray with intercession aka saying something like "Beloved God please do (insert blank) for the jamat in the name of hazir imam" instead we directly pray to the Aga Khan.

​

We maybe recite 2 ginans a day with AM JK.

No Quran? Why? Also these Ginans say Ali is an incarnate of Allah and other ridiculous stuff which you said doesn't exemplify Ismailis.

​

How did the prophet do it?

Notice how the Quran verses say to ask Muhammad for intercession and not aga khan?
