panaromic view of ashura 1432

The one and only free public forum for Bohras. The focus of this forum is the reform movement, the Dawoodi Bohra faith and, of course, the corrupt priesthood. But the discussion is in no way restricted to the Bohras alone.

the mental enslavement of the bohras is complete. a prime example of mass hysteria and cultish behaviour. poor and simple middle class bohras, looking for salvation and relief from their daily miseries and problems have found their godman. the hindus have their fake sadhu charlatans and impostors, the muslims have their chamatkari babas and maulvis and the bohras have their syedna and his evil puppy zaadas..

duniya jhukti hai, jhukanewala chahiye. loot lo, bewaqoof bana lo, ayyashi kar lo, bahot gadhey bhare pade hai...

Did you note the namaskar like gesture? The sajda has already come, when is the sashtang namaskar coming?

It is amazing

90% of Bohra in picure are doing pranam to their demigod. There is no group in Islam where followers are so enslaved. Even Aga Khanis who are so devoted to aga khan do not show such slavishness. Simply amazing,

if he falls due to the rickety window plinth, or slips, he will be a shaheed bohra.

for that matter, most of the sheep herding around the windows are at risk of hurtling to their deaths below. the majority of buildings in the bohri mohalla are over 100 years old and in pretty ramshackle condition.

btw, has anyone noticed the temporary bridge made up of iron girders, spanning across the narrow street, ostensibly to carry the palkhi across? rather crude but ingenious, must be a building across saifee masjid with a lift, from where syedna can reach the 2nd floor and then be carried across. a whole bunch of city and ward officials must have been heavily bribed to look the other way, i'm sure.

If he falls and survives then it is classified as a Mojiza, if shaheed then he was standing there without Raza which is a no-no :)

He will fall and the chances are that he will survive. However, the same cannot be said about the person down below on whom he is going to fall. If you look below, you won't find an inch of concrete that he will land on. Soft bohra meat will cushion his fall.

True, at least we know that the bridge was built by the highest "bidder".

I am not familar with Mumbai, obviously this is a Bohra only area but based on its condition, is this where the low income Bohras live ?

from the recent articles I read that bohris live in waterpipes in bombay and many are very, very poor. what is the reason we see hoardes of them flocking to the asura waez ? It was amazing to see the large number of ladies all gathered in the street. Have these ladies lost their thought process? what is the reason that they gather in hoardes in these majlises and some even fly from distant places to attend this ashura waez. Some of the men I know of have even left their wives and children all by themselves themselves and rushed to bombay on the first available flight to attend ashura. . Can some one explain this madness?

Bro mumin,

There are quite a few reasons for the above, some attend to hear 'mola's' vayez which they are made to believe is 'noorani kalemat' although the bayan he does is prepared by some amil well in advance and he only recites it like a parrot, there are many learned amils who are also good orators and whose bayans are much more informative and gripping but bohras dont prefer to attend their vayez. The focul point is MOLA and not Imam Hussain (a.s.) and his shahadat nu bayan which is of prime importance, why else would they flock like a herd of sheep where the actual bayan is boring, lacks tempo and is most of the time off track as compared to other places where the bayan is much more interesting ? Some attend for free food. Some attend in order that their respective jamat members are kept aware of which acts a bonus point whilst getting safai chitthi. The rich NRI's have to attend bcoz the zaadas in their contacts keep a track of them. In short it zeroes down to signing a muster roll which adds to their points (like flying hours).
