We establish the global existence and uniqueness of strong solutions to the initial boundary value problem for the incompressible MHD equations in bounded smooth domains of $\mathbb R^3$ under some suitable smallness conditions. The initial density is allowed to have vacuum, in particular, it can vanish in a set of positive Lebessgue measure. More precisely, under the assumption that the production of the quantities $\|\sqrt\rho_0u_0\|_{L^2(\Omega)}^2+\|H_0\|_{L^2(\Omega)}^2$ and $\|\nabla u_0\|_{L^2(\Omega)}^2+\|\nabla H_0\|_{L^2(\Omega)}^2$ is suitably small, with the smallness depending only on the bound of the initial density and the domain, we prove that there is a unique strong solution to the Dirichlet problem of the incompressible MHD system.

Keywords: Incompressible MHD, strong solutions., global existence and uniqueness.
