I simply cannot figure out what "by an-nass of his ..father" means: "He succeeded to the throne of Dawat in the year 1385 AH (1965 AD) by an-nass of his illustrious father and predecessor. His Holiness Dr. Syedna
Taher Saifuddin (AQ) the 51st Dai al-Mutlaq."
Can anyone explain what an-nass means in English
Taher Saifuddin (AQ) the 51st Dai al-Mutlaq."

The obvious sense that can be understood from the text is "his father's will". Probably a particular name given to the volition, will or testament of the leader.
