Re: Taher Fakhrudin and related topics

I don't think they are implying that they know more. They are just stating that science does not acknowledge that there is a supernatural entity. That's the intent behind the statement "why these things happen". Religion says it is because of Allah, science does not.

Re: Ghadeer a khum

There is a quote attributed to Imam Jafar Sadiq AS: "Fasting on the day of Ghadeer is equivalent to fasting throughout the entire age of the world… It is the greatest festival of Allah. Allah has not sent any prophet but that he celebrated this day as Eid and was aware of its sanctity. It is kn...

Re: Mufaddal Saifuddin (and related topics) - 2015

However, a more fundamental question is: can an Imam change his mind about his successor? Are there other examples in the past? Or, given that on of key doctrines of Ismailism is that the Imam is infallible, one must assume by default that the nass once done won't be changed? Bro Biradar, regarding...

First of, shouldn't the above post be in the court case thread? Secondly, is it really true that this is the argument presented by the SMS side - that nass can be changed and they have used the Imam Mustali/Nizar episode as evidence? I know on the website maintained by Saif53 they have made the argu...

No one should force you to pay any amount. Decide how much you need to pay and state that as your final amount.

To be honest the language you are using makes you a prime candidate for being follower of the Mufaddali dawat. Are you sure you are not a stooge planted here? Only someone who follows their doctrine can spout so much garbage and yet think they are God's gift to humanity.
