Dawoodi Bohra Forum

Please don't charge me with your limited understanding. What I said is clear that a wife as long as is satisfies these duties is free to pursue any path she wants. SMS says she has to make rotis and learn stitching, not me.
Apology accepted, next time don't limit my words to your understanding.

DB- MUMBAIKAR............... Where do you get this from? I am from Afghanistan or a part of the religious clerics.
Wow first time being called an extremist, I must say i don't like it.
Read and re read my post, if you don't understand please ask and I will be more than happy to explain it to you in ...

According to Islam only 2 duties are assigned to a wife.
1: Have sex with the husband
2: Educate the children on being good Muslims.

If your wife makes rotis or does any household duties for you, be very grateful as its not her obligation but doing so voluntarily.
Divorce is a right of both the ...

my comment was directed towards you and who knows this zaharali might also be you because I have not met any person in this world who speaks like this about mother.

Only a mentally ill person can give such an unwanted description of a mother.

Its called freedom of speech, maybe you have heard of ...

As long as the Imam is not deciding, there are other ways to decide who gets what.
I recommend a cricket competition between Team SMS vs Team SKQ.

On a more serious note, wouldn't the Imam reveal himself to the true Dai, and that's how he shall know.
Shouldn't the true Dai tell us a revelation of ...

Can someone please answer a simple question?
Which of the two Dais is in contact with the last Imam who went purdah.
Correct me if I am wrong but, isn't the entire concept of Dai is that he acts according to the wishes and instructions received by ALLAH and the last Imam.

go, you have confessed yourself that you do all things that are not allowed in Islam, so now lets make things straight. This forum is not about opposing the tenets of Islam but to improve the wrong doings in our community. Since you don't look like a practicing muslim, do not comment here or oppose ...

In that case we are all doing what we are destined to do. That means everything that I am doing is already chosen on my behalf and I don't have any say in what happens to me.

My acceptance or rejection of sin is already decided for me. I cannot be blamed because GOD has not given me enough SAMAJ ...

Mere bhai, Faiyaz is my real name.

Your replies are not very encouraging,
I am in proper sense what the KOTHAR would call a muddai. I drink, I smoke, I have premarital sex and I speak against all the bullshit I see. I do it openly without the fear of any bohri watching me or complaining to the aamil sahab. I dont pay my bohri taxes ...

Dear Ammar,

Do you want my full name and address, even though I am born a dawoodi bohri. I dont attend your majlis where u praise your dai, instead of remembrance of IMAM HUSSAIN. Mai itna majboor nahi ki aapki ki free fund ki jamat ka khaana khao and if someone comes to my house to ask for my e ...

I understand what you say Think, and I m in total agreement with it.
But I am a little sentimental when it comes to my father and his fathers before. I would still prefer to rest my bones near my family.

jins are not devils. Jins is another form and a whole lot of them created from fire,

Your are right demons are an another life form, but iblees or the devil as we know him is a jinn as written. This is clear in every religion and every religious scripture. The hindus have DEV, DANAV and MANUSHYA ...

Hello everyone,
I have a very genuine question and I want everyone to try and help me with this huge problem.
My parents were born and practicing dawood bohris. My father passed away when I was quite young and was given a proper bohri burial.
Now in recent times I have recognized the backwardness of ...

suggestions, questions and comments are welcome

if u really smoke and drink as u have mentioned before, I will be surprised if some bohra will be willing to marry u at first place.

dont feel sorry for girls, they will get deserving candidates.

I really smoke and I really drink, and I am really rich and I can pay the money to get a fancy title ...

I appreciate this forum for being the voice of just people asking questions to the holders of faith.
But do you think we are asking the right question? We are questioning the unjust and unfair practices of KOTHAR and revered DAI, thats commendable but we fail of ask WHY? Why are people tolerating ...

Some bohris even voted for Narendra Modi in the elections following Godhra Massacre

You are right Grayson love and compatibility are the true tests.
I was really unaware of such practices. But I would still not like to touch these tainted souls.

Not because I find them unworthy but because i fear that I might cause more damage. Its like a poor child is molested in the younger ...

The examples of bohri people trapped in the self righteous well are too many.

Only bohri people are allowed in a bohri masjid. I dont understand how can one refuse anyone from entering the house of GOD, it is for worship for one and all.

Bohri community needs money for the burial of the dead ...

QURAAN kahe che

"hame ghana logo ne ewa paida kidha che je logo aazmaish maate che, and jhannam ni aag naa idhan (fuel) che"

so those who accepts sins openly are from those categories.

In that case we are all doing what we are destined to do. That means everything that I am doing is already ...

Ghetthoism is a harsh reality that I m aware of, but living in these conditions and being used to them and looking for ghettos for security is another thing altogether. Bohris choose to do business with bohris, and this ghetto mentality is so ingrained in the people that most bohris choose to work ...

I have a fair idea why they are so meek and stupid. There are many reasons to it but I will list a few important ones.

1) Its been a long standing Idea amongsts bohri that the other muslims are below standard and barbaric then they detest interacting with other muslims.

2) Due to difference in ...

Welcome to the forum, and sorry but I have to admonish you.

If that's a reason for you not wanting to marry a Bohra girl it's a rather foolish one. These young girls didn't ask for this to happen to them. Your protest is unfair.

If indeed you do marry a Bohra girl and are gifted with a daughter ...

Then there are also people like me who have seen the nonsense going on within bohri community and decided these idiots dont have the answers to guide anyone on a proper religious path let alone spiritual enlightenment.

Its better to be atheist and spiritual, follow good karma. Rather than hope that ...

I am so shocked at this barbarism, I really want to ask my mother and my aunts and my cousins what they went through but sadly I cant.

This makes me not want to marry a Dawoodi Bohra girl,

and I take this decision not to marry a Dawoodi bohra in protest.
