ה'''זקרי''' (מערבית:ذكرى) הינה אמונה באיסלאם שמקורה במחוז מקראן שבבלוצ'יסטן. הזרם הזיקרי הוא זרם משני באיסלאם, וההערכה היא שכיום ישנם כ-800,000 מוסלמים זיקרים בעולם, מרביתם מרוכזים בדרום מחוז בלוצ'יסטן, חלקו בפקיסטן וחלקו באיראן.

==האמונה הזיקרית==
מקור השם '''זיקרי'' במילה הערבית "ד'יקר" (ערבית: ذکر, או "זיקר" בפרסית) היא מילה לתיאור האל בקוראן, ומשמש בין היתר ככינוי לזרם הסופי באיסלאם. האמונה מבוססת על משנתו של המהדי בן המאה ה-15 - סעיד מוחמד ג'אנפורי. 

===עיקרי האמונה===
הזיקרים נוהגים להתפלל, כמו מרבית המוסלמים, חמש פעמים ביום. התפילה מתקיימת בקבוצות ונערכת כאשר פניהם מכוונים לסוני ודבק בקוראן לפי מצוות המהדי.

===מצוות החאג'===
מאמיני הזרם הזיקרי אינם מקיימים את מצוות החאג' בדומה לאחיהם המוסלמים. במקום זאת הם מבצעים סוג של צלינות הנקרא זיארה. המקום הקדוש להם, שם הם מבצעים את הזיארה, הוא מקדש זיקרי שנקרא "קוה-א-מוראד" (בפרסית: كوه مراد. פירוש השם הוא "הר התשוקה"), ונמצא בעיר טורבאט שבפקיסטן. 

The '''Zikri''' (Arabic: ذكرى) faith is an offshoot of Balochistan (Pakistan and Iran).   
The name Zikri comes from the Arabic word ''dhikr'' (pronounced "Zikr" in South Asia). The word is commonly used to describe Sufi worship. 
==Prayer==
They are generally regarded as heretical by mainstream Muslims. Zikris, like mainstream Muslims, are religiously obligated to pray five times daily. However, the content of their prayers, which they call Zikr, differs from the orthodox practice of Salah. Although Mahdavi, the direct followers of Syed Mohammad Jaunpuri offer prayers according to the Sunnah and follow Sunnah which was practised and stressed by the saint. Syed Mohammed Jaunpuri would strictly adhere to the Sunnah of Prophet and accordingly the commandments in the Qur'an. The Mahdavis perform Hajj and even Umrah.
==Pilgrimage==
The Zikris, however, do not perform the standard Islamic Hajj, but instead make pilgrimage (Persian). The shrine is located in the  city of Balochistan. They do ziyarat on the 27th night of Ramadan. 
==Area==
Most Zikris live in Baluchistan, where they are the majority religious group in the district of Gwadar. There are also large groups of Zikris in the Pakistani city of Karachi, the Pakistani province of Sindh, and in Iran. Many of the other smaller groups live in Karachi and Makran, although the Zikris, for example, are predominantly in south-western Baluchistan where their spiritual center, Koh-i-Murad, is located. However, they are becoming less visible, fearing that they will also be designated a ‘minority’, against their will.

==Ethnicity==
The Zikris of Balochistan – a predominantly Baloch ethnic group in Makran and the adjoining areas – fear they will suffer the fate of the Ahmadis, as there are demands from certain groups for their designation as a non-Muslim minority. The Zikris are an under-researched community. However, many Baloch nationalist leaders and writers have expressed solidarity with the Zikris, considering them the ‘archetypal Baloch’.

==Mahdi==
Zikris believe in Syed Muhammad Jaunpuri (1443-1504), "but i as a Zekri my self say that we and all other Zekri believe in the 12th imam, Imam Mehdi the Akhir u Zaman" and we really believe that he has came into this world as our Shia brothers say in their books and some of the muslims belives in" But many don't, as the promised mehdi who emphasized on the purity and formalism in Islam. The faith stresses on abstinence, seclusion, contentment and invocation of divine names, or Zikir-i-Khatir.

Zikirs participate in their annual congregation at Turbat, at the end of the Ramzan (ramadan), every year. Some scholars consider this annual rite in Koh-i-Murad near Turbat, as the surviving remnant of daira system. It is, according to Zikirs, in no way a substitute for the Muslim annual pilgrimage to Kaaba, as their detractors claim.
