He is the oldest son of Khuzaima Qutbuddin, the claimant to the position of 53rd Da'i al-Mutlaq. After the death of the 52nd Da'i al-Mutlaq, Mohammed Burhanuddin, due to the succession controversy two claimants emerged, Mufaddal Saifuddin and Khuzaima Qutbuddin. Followers of Qutbuddin regard Fakhruddin as a rightly appointed Da'i al-Mutlaq whereas followers of Mufaddal Saifuddin do not recognise him as the Da'i al-Mutlaq.

One of Taher Fakhruddin's first major decisions was regarding the burial arrangements of his father and predecessor in office, Khuzaima Qutbuddin, who died on 31 March 2016. It was decided to bring Qutbuddin's body to India for burial.[1]

Qutbuddin had filed a case at the Bombay High Court against Saifuddin in 2014 in order to determine which claimant had a received a valid appointment of succession from Burhanuddin.[2] It is expected that Fakhruddin will continue his father's efforts against Saifuddin at the Bombay High Court.[3]
