i need pictures and proof if engineer has this allegation, otherwise the way I see it who can benifit from such a scandal? difenitely not engineer; it is the kothar that profits from such media hype and I would not be surprized if some under dogs were fed a bone by the kothar to spread this scandal.

brother Fateh; no hadiyat or mufsusiat is needed from nabi,imam, dai, preist etc, you pray directly to your Allah and ask others whoever they are to pray for you to Allah on your behalf. Allah clearly states to his creatures " ask me directly for your needs and wishes,I am there to answer your ...

brother Fateh; your name is Fateh, which means success, because of your solid faith and trust in your Allah . Moula Ali was known as fateh Ali for his success in war . The Rasul was not by his side to fight his wars. He was in the battle field all by himself with his Allah given gift of zulfiqar. ye...

zulfi; do you mean that with the dai intervention, he would have been led into jannat by the dai?no need for surgery.

not so. It depends on one's trust in Allah. miracles happen to me all the time without any intervention from any mullah or big mulla. I ask Allah for help and it is given to me, but in his time not mine. yes and yes I can surely say that a lot of miracles have happened to me . My Allah has taken car...

regarding houston mayor hype; let it be known that muffi moula wanted the mayor to recieve the dai at the airport. to this end huge moneies were collected from the abdes and even a fancy party was given. the mayor did no such thing. huge sums of monies were given by muffi to local government to make...

brother Fakhruddin; i know of an incident when a bohri was building a masjid. one fine day a zada came to him and took over the masjid project and this zada did not know abc of construction or design. The bohri got so frustrated with all the mistakes that were made by this zada and how he spent the ...

mumineen should help other mumineen, one on one basis. The money which is given to the local amil towards the betterment of the community actually goes to wards bettering himself and may be 10% goes towards the public interest. the rest goes in buying bentleys, lexus and etc, etc. money that is dona...

A.R big problems in u.s. and canada jamaats. huge amounts are taken for mosque,but no mosque. L.A. amil was in the red for money laundering and died in hospital in pain and suffering. Tampa amil caught in ponzy scheme, canada amil was barred from entering canada because of ridiculous fatwas and mone...

admin; assuming there are about a million bohris in the world to day; then do your figures reflect that about 10% of them visit this site?

sbm thanks for the info. things are bad even in the carolinas,since the new jamaat was established about a year back. now they have a permanent amil, to take care of. he enjoys all the darees, and wajebaats and salams. his statement; all he needs is a free place to stay in these united states and he...

tampa jamaat is full of such mentallly incapacitated people. i know of one who goes by the last name of gharialli. This guy is a mental case, be forewarned if you have a run in with him.

G.M. toilet ceremonies have been performed a number of times in the u.s. There was a time when some one said that there should be desi toilet in bohra bathrooms in the west. everytime an american toilet was changed to a desi one in a bohra home there was a grand opening ceremony.

brother Insaf; I fully agree. This is a good thing. It furthers the cause of the just and educated. The women have more time on their hands to read and explore and get themselves an education. after all it is the women that run into the majlises more than the men. The education of women should chang...

This is the result of illiteracy in the bohra community of Karachi. This Saleh masjid, if I recall correctly is off Lawrence road, in the not so well to do area of Karachi. Education will solve the problem.

atlanta is no different. fund for mosque were collected on three occasions and vanished as soon as the local amil was transferred. big wajebaats and wasteful spending is the cry and life story of nearly every bohri.

among the many religious leaders of the world like the Aga Khan, Dalai Lama, The Pope, Khomeni, The Imams of our time even The Rasul or moula Ali and right upto the 46th Dai; I have not read or heard of such pompous display of worldly wealth in celebration of a birthday. If anyone is aware of such a...

since the authority of the imam precedes the authority of the dai and since the agakhani imam is a direct descendant of moula Ali; then should the bohras pay homage to the imam aga Khan?

i hope atlanta jamaat has learned its lesson. This bhaisaheb was a very cunning guy.Good riddance. The guillable mumineen of atlanta were exploited to the fullest by this Bhaisaheb. they had to bear the expenses of the bhaisaheb his wife and two children. He made a lot of money by not only fleecing ...

it is sad that people are so blinded even in the u.s. that they are living on credit cards and dishing out huge sums towards sabil etc especially in new jersey and houston. on the first hand interest is haram and on the other hand they go in debt and pay interest on credit cards to pay sabil and oth...

can someone please post the noorani kalemat during dares salam trip. thanks

how about some acronym for Darees, since it is enforced so much. In the far east the amils want at least 5 or 6 darees in a year from each family.

A new Dai by the name of Dai Abdullah is born in Malasia. He already has a following of many.

now a days they are not even aware of how much money wealth they have, because some of it is siphoned off in the pockets of his cronies and chamchas who give them importance in the first place.

i know malik ul ashtar is no masoom. I am fully arare of his devious ways.

I think this is a scheme of the kothar to make certain that Amils and bhaisahebs ,specially in the west get free home cooked meal every day. What do you think?

it is shameful that these old bohris have lost all dignity. i wonder how their children and grand children would feel; to see their fathers and grandfather's dignity being snatched away by this 15 or so year old kid. The houston jamaat is surely nothing more than a bunch of -------

thank you Ghulam Mohammed for the explanation.
now a days I see many bohras residing in burma and Indonesia doing this on a regular basis. that is the first thing they do in the morning is set a side a few pennies for nazar muqaam before going to work etc. hence my enthsiasm to get the details .

can any one please explain the what, why and how of nazar muqaam.

Turab bhaisaheb,a long time amil for california also passed away due to brain fungus, but no news from the kothar . Although this guy made bountiful of greens milking the mumineen of california. i believe his son is still in california.
