Why hide your real name?

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.

Why hide your real name?

My request is for friends like Anhar, Qiyam, Mumin110, Simon to write with your real name. It is because all of you are speaking for Sayedna Saheb and defending Kothar with sincerity. You are also convinced that there is no compulsion; no fear of social boycott and no harassment in the Dawat administration. A Noble administration headed by a person who is kind, Mushaffaq bap, and an “Ambassador of Peace” for the whole world.
I still wonder why Bohras are so much terrorized and afraid to talk, for or against, Sayedna Saheb’s establishment?
I keep on meeting various Amils, Shaikh Saheban and one son-in-law of Sayedna Saheb, who was with me for an advanced engineering course in Bajaj Institution. They meet me, talk to me on various issues, most of the time remain non-committal. But even these people while departing say “Aa apni apas ni wat chhe, makhfi rakhjo.” And I wonder why?

Dear Br.,
You have to understand the basics. The Bhori believes of things being done from behind a "PARDAH".
It is common for them to say something and do something else, mostly exactly the opposite. You will find them cursing and preaching behind closed doors ("purdah")
Be carefull of this your school friends. As you have stated they are non commiting.....

When we consider the LEVEL of "intelligence" displayed here by such an OBVIOUSLY authentic guy as dear "ponga" (hee, hee!), we wish we COULD throw a blanket over him & put him in "PARDAH" :D

Insaf

I don't use my real name because i choose not to. Whether you percieve there to be fear, compulsion or social boycott is not the issue. It is an individual's choice
