Dawoodi Bohra Forum

No wonder most of the former posters have left this forum. Personal attacks and uncivil posts have brought this form to a pitiful level.

My reaction to the video of "Ya Hussein'
is concisely summed up in the following
Sher.

Teri baaton se aaj to waaiz
Woh jo thi khwaahish-e-najaat gai
- Firaq Gorakhpuri

(khwaahish-e-najaat: hope of salvation)


तेरी बातों से आज तो वाइज़
वह जो थी ख्वाहिश-इ-नजात गई

What is Ohbat?

Kakaji: Maula to filhaal Mombasa (Kenya) ma paisa no safayo kari rahya che. Ehna pase thi koi ummid na rakhjo.

Many years ago, Terry Fox, a Canadian cancer victim ran from the Atlantic to the Pacific coasts to raise funds for cancer research. I am sure such acts are replicated in other countries for various humanitarian causes. Did I miss that the tract by these two individuals is to raise awareness of some ...

Is anyone able to venture into forecasting the result of the case?!

Our Moula family is richer than this........AND STILL STOPPING TO COLLECT ALL THE ENVELOPES ON HIS 'PAGLA' VISITS TO BOHRA HOUSEHOLDS1

Perhaps the Imam did show up but was given a fat stipend and asked to disappear rather than upset the cash cow of MBS.

For the two suicide cases in my city, the mourners were forbidden to recite Sadaqallah, Fateha, etc. when they gathered at the house of the deceased's parents. They were told to partake in the Jaman, perform do no taziiat, and leave. However, both were buried, albeit in a far corner of the designate...

The story in the Guardian is nothing to be poo-poohed. It is a result of the relentless efforts by reformists to raise the issue of FGM, etc. Among the proponents of airing issues like social boycott, coercion and verbal and physical threats are stalwarts like Haki Kapasi. She is the author of a boo...

The following article appears in the Guardian Newspaper in England.

Media thrives on evolving and current political, social, or sports issues. In the broader picture, Dawoodi Bohras are an insignificant community; and the dissidents are barely above the lowest horizon. Haki's letter would not be even sniffed at by any London county tabloid. It would be interesting t...

Haki Kapasi is the author of the book "Life of a Reformist Bohra'.

Sceptical and juzer esmail: The reasons why Maula left Madagascar, and did not go to Myotte or Zanzibar are monetary. And it also could be that peripheral functions were lacking or sightseeing outings were not planned, or if you go to the extreme perhaps a Mercedes was not available; any number of r...

Brother AZ: Human's post was a rant about Kuwait Jamaat's ever increasing wajebaaat plus additional dues to be levied for fadhila raato. Furthermore, all to be paid in full before the start of the holy month. My reference to that post was that it was completely out to left field. A glaring example o...

Advice to Human_KW. Please pay up, participate fully to get your money's worth and Ramadhan Mubarak to you.

With apologies, to Human_KW's post is a glaring example of the infantile lack of understanding that his post should be under another topic. It has absolutely nothing to do with the subject matter under discussion here. Brother AZ; this is one of many such posts that have resulted in the stalwarts ea...

Welcome back Al Zulfiqar. This forum has been gradually receding into oblivion. We need to examine some of the reasons for it and we will find why the stalwarts have slid out of it. My observation is that the level of intellectual and factual input by the current slate of contributors is void of 'th...

Court case ma potana pag dagu dagu che ane STF ne wahi aawi ke tasbih, nasr-wal-mahaba, nazrul muqam, wagere pade to tena case ma safarta pamshe. Shu STF na camp ma koi wakil nathi ke STF ne samjhawe ke court na case ma 'thosh' sabut ane kagazato pesh kare toj koi baat banshe. Duao, dora dhagha, bag...

QutbiBohra: I am sure many on this forum, including me, do not have a clue as to who Moiz, Diwan, Yunus, Mohlem, Ibn Munaf, et al are. Please enlighten us as to their status, role, etc. Are you talking about the court case or seating arrangement at functions? I suggest writing in Gujarati or Urdu to...

SBM, please do not lose any sleep waiting for condemnation from the Dai or his ilk. From what I have read from the Indian media is that the extremists Hindutva leaders have openly praised past killings of Muslims, praising Nathuram Godse in the process. On stage were 14 to 20 speakers donned with sa...

If I were to pose a question as to why otherwise sane normal people would do such acts, I do not want to read explanations like blind faith, etc. From all you posters I want to hear how easily, quickly and with such momentum such adorations have crept into what used to be a faith we all love(d)?

મોજીસ વિશે સામાન્ય લોકોની વિચારસરણી અલગ અને ખોટી પણ છે. સામાન્ય રીતે મુશ્કેલ અથવા અશક્ય કાર્યની પૂર્ણતાને મોઝેક નામ આપવામાં આવે છે. ખરેખર, મોજીઝા પયગંબરો અને સંદેશવાહકો માટે ખાસ છે. પયગંબરોએ અલ્લાહના આદેશથી તેમના સદ્ગુણોને સાબિત કરવા અથવા હકનો ઇન્કાર કરનારાઓને પડકાર તરીકે દર્શાવ્યા છે. 'મોજીઝા' શબ્દ...

મોમીન ભાઈઓ અને બહેનો 51મા દાઈ થી કોમની જે મિલ્કતો હતી તેને વક્ફ એક્ટના જોરે હડપ કરી લીધી. મસ્જિદ ખ઼ુદા નુ ઘર છે પરંતુ મોમીનો ના મગજ મા એવું જડબેસ્લાક ઠસાવી દીધું કે તેને વક્ફ કર્યા સિવાય તેમાં નમાઝ પડાય નહિ એટલે કે અલ્લાહ ના ઘરના માલિક દાઈ જ ગણાય. મોમીનો મા કેટલી હદ સુધી અંધશ્રદ્ધા ઘુસી ગઈ છે કે દાઈ...

ilhamafief94: Is your Ilham (inspiration) enlightened now!

ilhamafief94 I am with neither! I am on this forum just to observe and, sometimes comment, on the dismemberment of what was once a very united community. The 'naubat' is before the courts figuring out who of the two is the 'nassed' Dai. The verdict will be like the one of a rich widow (community); e...

.....and more sad that such young innocent minds are being manipulated.....

Also, that he had hosted a ziafat for 53 the previous night.
He was in that position for over 50 years and did well for himself.
