NASS CONFERRED
Re: NASS CONFERRED
I tend to agree with all those who have raised doubts about the way this latest episode of Nass has come to pass. Given the history of successions - and sects and divisions it has created - modern day leaders should make all attempts to make this process as transparent as possible.
The more learned amongst us can verify whether the process as described by Insaf saheb in another thread has been prescribed in our source books. But really, that is beside the point. The way the latest Nass has been conferred is exactly the way it should NOT be done - from the privacy of a hospital bed, by a Dai who has suffered a stroke, and among his sons as only witness. This looks like a last-minute, desperate deal - which is to be expected from a Dai and his sons who have made the Dawat their family fiefdom. There is not even a pretence at transparency, such is their arrogance. And why not. They know that abde sheep will accept whatever is thrown at them. Well, they will not only accept but go epileptic on being blessed with "magnificent mansoos". Talk of slaves enjoying their slavery!
But of course all doubts can be put rest if Sayedna saheb makes a public announcement. Let's hope our Imam will advise him to do so.

Bro humsafar,
You have aptly put everything in its right perspective. You have described the situation very well in a nutshell.

You are perfectly right as even I have got some news which cannot be made public at this time as it will unneccessarily create a furore and it will be very very difficult for many to digest the same. Hence, wait and watch. I will elaborate on the same at an appropriate time.
Re: NASS CONFERRED
every incident that has happened seems to be planned and doubtful. why no audio-video relay/clip of nass ?
secondly, testimony of all the witness of nass except one seems to be not eligible according to shariah ?
why no news about health condition of 52nd ?

They are not only well versed with religious knowledge but very educated in contemperory knowledge. When I said, that Imam's ilham is pre requisite for nass, I was quoting Syedna Saheb. I have heard him say that. Two years ago in mumbai waaz, he said that Dai will pass on dawat to next Dai with Imam's Ilham.
Dai will pass on dawat to next dai, keeping in view Imam's ilham and qualities laid out by previous dais. Dai again is in continuation of precedence before him. He is not dai in air. Though in imam's seclusion He yields his authoriy from precedence and literature left by dawat's pioneer.

Re: NASS CONFERRED
It is actually irrelevant if the da'i himself makes the announcement or does it through someone else. There is no particular requirement and choosing his successor is entirely his choice. Even in cases when the nass has been declared publicly there have been instances of disputes and schisms have occurred. Also, it is not unlikely that the nass was actually performed a long time ago and the sayedna has now chosen to make it public. Also, it is possible that he personally will make it public in a few days. After all, he is still sick and can not just hobble out to satisfy the skeptics.Humsafar wrote:I tend to agree with all those who have raised doubts about the way this latest episode of Nass has come to pass.

Anyway, as far as bohras are concerned, this is fait accompli. They have now someone else to worship for the rest of their lives. Things will just be as usual, nothing really will change. Perhaps da'i worship will get even stronger as a generation of those who knew otherwise is being swept aside. As you said, it is business as usual.

What is this important information you are not sharing? Yesterday somebody ask me what will happen if syedna passes away without proclaming the nass on audio or video , will the bohras except the nass based on the words of Qaid Joher? how will mazum sahed and his family react to this? There are many questions like this which needs to be answered very soon .....

Re: NASS CONFERRED
All of a sudden the tech savy Abdes have no live broadcast no audio
What could be more critical than nass unless this is a scam
Where were his mazuim and mukasir as witnesses or independent hudud
So until there is proper handover like 52 got from 51 where he publicly delegated authority and god forbid the next will always be questioned and future splits are on the horizon

Re: NASS CONFERRED
As I said, now they are saying it is nass jali. Though in Dawat e hadiya communique it did not say that Maula has done nass jali.
well like biradar said, it will be business as usual, But I do think that Syedi Muffadal Bhaisaheb will not have such strong grip over affairs, as Syedna Burhanuddin had. But for some time it will remain same.

Brother, please spell this is 'nass jalli' with two l's. jali (actually, jaali) means false in Urdu!accountability wrote:As I said, now they are saying it is nass jali.
Or did you really mean 'false'?
An e-mail forwarded to me from Jeddah:

"Aqa Maula (TUS) Ye Syedi Molai Mufaddal Bs Saifuddin Saheb Par 4th Rajab 1432H Ye Nas Farmavi (04/07/1432H = 4+7+1+4+3+2 = 21 ).
Ye Dalalat Kare Che Ke Imam U Zaman Na Dai Ye Imam U Zaman Na Ilham Si Nas Farmavi..."
Color added by me.
Re: NASS CONFERRED
Yes, that absolutely proves that the Imam has inspired this nass. Also, one must also notice that 04/07/1432 can be split as 4+7 = 11, 1+4 = 5 and 3+2 = 5. Then, we split 11 as 1+1 = 2. Then, we subtract this from 5 = 5-2 = 3. Then we put this together with 5 to get 53!!!porus wrote:"Aqa Maula (TUS) Ye Syedi Molai Mufaddal Bs Saifuddin Saheb Par 4th Rajab 1432H Ye Nas Farmavi (04/07/1432H = 4+7+1+4+3+2 = 21 ).

See the nirali shaan!! Even the date the nass was conferred was picked to say that the dai got ilham from the Imam (21) to appoint his mansoos (53). Please no more doubts, just accept this miraculous facts and fall on your knees and beseech both molas to forgive your sins and hold your hand and lead you into janaat.
Also notice that 53 - 2 (2 from 1+1) gives 51. Taher Saifuddin mola has predicted by writing on a notebook that Ali Qadar Muffadul would be the da'i after 52. Also, he is once credited to have said that "after Saifuddin there will be Saifuddin". See, all these signs were there for everyone to see. The ones having a veil over their eyes never saw the obvious, but of course all this was predestined, written in the Ummul Kitab.

Biradar,
That was absolutely brilliant! A smashing piece of analysis! I am convinced!!
Sort of Al Zulfiqaresque, wouldn't you say? And where is he? I do miss his comments.

Re: NASS CONFERRED
Nice. Now that I see the numbers I'm convinced too!
Re: NASS CONFERRED
04/07/1432
Let us create the formula
(4 multiply by 7) + (1)+ (4 multiply by 3 multiply by 2) equal 53 which is wow wow wow

Hello everyone,
I was referred to this site by my friend Jonah Blank. I am a doctoral student at Harvard working on the impacts of centralized leadership on perceptions and beliefs in monotheistic religions, particularly Islam and Christianity. I have been following the "nass" topic here, and I would like to ask you guys a few questions. Please acknowledge if that is O.K. with you guys.
Many thanks for your assistance.

Re: NASS CONFERRED
Welcome Ajnabi. You've come to the right place. It's more than OK with us if you ask questions. In fact, this is the only place in the "bohra universe" where one can ask questions without the fear of being rebuked and ex-communicated. Ironically, even adbes (the orthodox blind followers of Sayedna) come here to exercise their much denied freedom of speech. So, as anajmi says, fire away!!

I guess you should ask questions from a Dawoodi Bohra rather than these Munafiqs. They have no idea what Bohraism is about

That is why Jonah Blank referred him as he was not given free access to Syedna for his book Mullah on the mainframe. Jonah Blank knows very well and gave the right advice for the best information one can get at this forum rather that Kothari controlled websites

Ajnabi,
Let me add my support to those who have welcomed your questions. From this forum, you are most likely to get insights into the working of the Dawoodi Bohra centralized leadership and how they manage to steer religious beliefs of the Bohras, especially those related to Baatini interpretation of religious texts, to serve the interests of the ruling elite. In this, Bohras are similar to other 'cultish' organizations like the Ismailies (Aga Khanis) and the Druze. They may have views on other cults but, I suspect, not much knowledge of their internal working as they tend to be secretive.
I am assuming you are concentrating mainly, or only, on religious leadership, although it would be difficult to separate religious leadership from other types of leadership in Muslim countries.
As this thread is specifically for Nass, you may wish to start another thread with the subject you wish to discuss.

Re: NASS CONFERRED
I have to say this - while it's seems apparent that this whole issue of Burhanuddin's successor, etc.
was wholly fabricated by the zaadas, et al.. . . .I've noticed that many Bohris/Reformist Bohris are starting to ask questions
about Mufaddal and his qualifications, the reasons for the absence of Mazoon and Mukasir, etc.
I think that's a really good thing. People need to keep asking questions. I'm no expert on Sharia law, but I would bet
that having three/four "shahid gawa" with a conflict of interest may not be allowed.
