Yes... I think Br. Biradar is referring to this book as it contains quotes, certain short speeches and 100 idioms of Ali as recorded by a Sunni Qadi.

Can you glean for us from this esoteric knowledge actionable things in terms of how to live a better life?


Br DCP,

As I mentioned earlier esoteric knowledge (i.e. Taawil) is more of academics . It helps a reasoning mind understand why something is the way it is. (e.g. why 3 rakahs of Magrib ...

As a general note, all esoteric hair-splitting should be confined to scholarship in ivory towers and to private musings. As far as I can tell, none of its public preaching has benefitted common believers in any way.

Science has come a long way...Study of Taawil and Haqaiq literature ...

From what I heard from my friends in Bombay Mohalla, there was a scout band playing outside the Raudat Tahera on the next day of SKQ's death.

For the common bohras there was a diktat that they cant even accept taaziyat in masjid if they are not wearing full uniform (i.e. Saya, kurta, ijaar & topi).

I guess rules are different for masses and VIP's.
