Re: Dawoodi Bohras who loves Ahl al Bait should read it
If one does tafakkur and tadabbur on this article one would realize much of what the author is suggesting is fiction and not in line with anything the prophet (saw) has taught. The author takes mighty leaps. Let me give you an example He recites an ayah of the Quran "Do they not think over the ...

Re: Stages in Leaving a Cultic System
Why are you interested in the women's faces? Their names are there which means they will be available at the conference for the women folk. It is time to move onto a full pant from a half Chaddi.

Re: Esoteric sermons of Maulana Ali
Personally, I do not agree there is any merit in judging one taawil against another but agree to a comparative study of all of them. Study them in the light of the Quran. That way you will save time and effort. The crap, like that from the bohra clergy about Dais being the rivers of honey and milk,...

Re: Please enlighten me about the whole story
You are right. No hard feelings. Whatever information I have gathered over the years has been because of people like Biradar and others. For example, I went back and bought the book he suggested. Most of the times to prove myself right but at the same time I started learning about Islam and Quran.

Re: Esoteric sermons of Maulana Ali
BTW: If you examine any complete tafsir of the Qur'an you will notice that every single verse is throughly explained. So, if the meaning of some verses was only with Allah, how come the interpreter who has composed the tafsir explained every single verse? There is a difference between tafseer and t...

Re: Esoteric sermons of Maulana Ali
And the reason bohra clergy refuses to put down the taawil in writing because they don't want to be called out on it. They have been fooling bohras with their taawil for decades. None of the bohras are actually firmly grounded in knowledge and hence it is really easy to fool them. For example, look ...

Re: Esoteric sermons of Maulana Ali
The meaning of "divine knowledge" here is that of knowledge which is deeper than the mere surface meanings of verses and external reality. Then do not refer to it as divine knowledge. Do you know the reason why you refer to it as divine knowledge? To make your own selves divine. That is u...

You forget that Christians have basically been burned out of the Middle East where it was born Which is a good sign. Those Christians converted to Islam and they are now on the right path. Even in the USA we are converting deserted unused churches into flourishing mosques. It is a good sign. The Ch...

However, the earlier video in this series did give a short explanation of part of another verse. i.e. Qur'an 21:30, where he explains the word "water" as divine knowledge and "life" as eternal life (i.e. in the hereafter). Hence, the interpretation that "we [Allah] have cre...
