Dawoodi Bohra Forum

Thank you for your enlightenment. I will stop making myself disgusting. What else do you have to preach to me, TalibBhai so we can move forward or move on. Self-respect is the foundation upon which everything else in life is built. It’s the first step toward personal growth, success, and true fulfi...

A friend of mine.

Holy men and their unholy deeds https://www.geo.tv/assets/uploads/updates/2017-09-24/159673_3862912_updates.JPG Bohras gather in Karachi to greet the Syedna Muharram is for mourning. The Shia whose hearts burn with the love of Imam Hussain consider this month holy and spend it in prayer and piety r...

Actually he is teaching you proper meaning of Kafir. Basic meaning of Kafir is one who does not believe in Allah. Lol, he's saying that is NOT the meaning! In any case, the point of my post was not about meaning. I'm just trying to say don't use it for non-Muslims, especially in a secular society. ...

Thank you anajmi for the correct translation

I hope the Sheikh saheb and Fatema Behn would pay heed.

Excellent analogy, Zinger! Fatema Behn, please try to understand that for the non-Muslim it doesn't matter how many times the word Kafir is in the Quran. It is a word of abuse and insult for them, whether created by the media or whoever is also beside the point. One should NOT go around calling peop...

Sheikh saheb, I know the meaning of the word Kafir and I'm not trying to debate it. The meaning here is not important. It is the perception of the word that is at issue here. Non-Muslims do not understand the meaning of Kafir, all they know is that it is a word of abuse. And let's be honest here, Mu...

Not sure how many here follows Indian politics but the recent statement by sankracharya against modi and in support of rahul clearly shows kafir sankracharya has more guts than bohra leader who calls him self all powerful. sankracharya isnt afraid of modi and his gov unlike muffy, sankracharya does...

This year, they asked us to fill out a form for the upcoming Ashara. The form specifically had two options: yes or no. The question was as obvious whether we would attend Moharram, whether we would be on time, and whether we would take leave from work, school, or business. It's serious that they ne...

Of course, it boils down to wakfs, trusts and properties. It has always been this way. The fight for the Daiship was the fight for wealth and property which belongs to the community--not to the sole trustee Dia ul Badluck (of Bohras). And poor, gullible Bohras are being gamed in the name of religion...

Not true. The judgement was right. It was not for the court to decide on this matter. You mentioned "it was not for the court to decide on this matter" whereas the judgment given by the Bombay High Court Judge did decide on this matter. It is quite dishonest of you to not even own up to y...

The court looked at the facts, and the Plaintiff failed to prove that the Nass was made on him, and also failed to disprove the instances of Nass defendant had presented. In the absence of sufficient evidence by the Plaintiff the court threw out the case (and rightly so). The court ruled on the evid...

The court did decide on this matter. Likelihood, probability, balance, preponderance, prudence. The Plaintiff fails on all counts. No sir, the Court dismissed the case -- that is its considered decision. It did not rule on who the rightful or legitimate Dai is. The court said it had no say in the m...

this case in US or UK would have concluded with some result.

Not true. The judgement was right. It was not for the court to decide on this matter.

Now it is all over. We all have been waiting for the verdict. Now it has been rendered and we still don't want to accept it. It is now a circus of people who have a lot of spare time and no serious considerations. Mufaddal Mowla is the right dai. You can go on waiting for the messiah like the Jews ...

If Haq exist then batil has to be present. Every Musa has to have his Firoun.

Correct, and Mufaddal is the Firaun!

You're right. Many of us have been lamenting this decline for quite some time. The way I see it, there are a few reasons for this. Social media: Especially WhatsApp has given people access to all the information and sharing of content (including audio and video), it is easy, convenient and accessibl...

Asalam Alikum Yesterday UK/Canada/USA got online didar opportunity. We all were called at 9 o'clock at night and waited around 4 hours but unfortunately our name was not presented to Mola because…no one from our city had presented enough money for ikraam/niyaaz/najwa/vajibat. Those who have money g...

Ramzan Mubarak! Let's hope all our prayers are answered!

His facts about the supreme court's judgement on the Babri masjid case are wrong. The court denied that the mosque was build by destroying a temple. See the image. Also he refers to KK Mohammed as providing the archeological findings to the court, this is not true. KKM was part of the investigation ...

Very interesting lecture

The general tenor of his lecture is okay but he has got a lot of facts wrong.

Biradar, The Iblis Toli will remain true to its character and agenda. You cannot expect it to do anything that is counter to its nature—meaning anything that is principled, credible and worthwhile. What the Iblis Toli has achieved among Bohras, the Hindutva Toli has achieved nationally. They are cut...

Good to see you again Biradar :-) Any old timer who pops up here gives a sense of relief -- that this forum is still not completely dead even though it is on its last gasps. To the point, the Kothar mafia and their glad-handing of those in power is not new. The iblis toli as you call them is only in...

Oh poor Bohras what are they going to do when they are not listening to enlightening waaz and eating well-catered jaman. Of course they are going to go shopping and sightseeing. Why not take advantage of foreign travel, and thanks a tonne to the Bohra administration for facilitating the visa. They h...

oh... i guess i was misinformed then.. i knew about the 8 categories however. when you say, you will be questioned, im assuming you mean questioned by Allah SWT, on the day of judgement? and for the last part, i somehow knew someone was going to say this. my response to this is that i REALLY dont t...

Jamia Milia doesn't care what ignoramus occupies the seat of chancellor so long as they get a fat donation. Otherwise, think for a moment, who in the right mind would make him even a school teacher!

Humsafar I expect better questions from a senior and aged person like you. The concept of Imamat is not limited to 600k Bohras, as I said not just Islam but even Hinduism has a concept of KALKI coming, which is not bound by time but as a faith, it is going to happen. widen your understanding and if...

the best example to prove that the current dai and his followers have nothing to do with Imam is that when their leader is abuse they jump to defend but when the Imam is abused they keep silent, this is a great example that they have abandoned the concept of Imam and now they are just worshiping mo...

Hello Biradar, Zinger and Humsafar, thank you for calling us half brained and changing the sex of one of us. I assume Biradar or one of you 3 is the moderator of this Forum. This explains why you back up each other and no one gets banned for insulting the imam in such horrible & filthy words an...

Hello people, calm down. Why are you guys shooting the messenger? Anyone with half a brain would conclude that there's something seriously wrong with this Imam business. Look at the these current contesting Dais, and all the other contesting Dais and contesting Imams of the past -- do you think all ...
