All non-Bohras are not following the command of 2:184 and other similar verses of Quran. So all non-Bohras are deprived from the blessings of the Eid-al-Fitr and Laylatul Qadr - This is miracle of Allah that all non-believers of walayat of Ameer al Mumineen Mola Ali a.s. and his progeny of Fatimi Ismaili Imams are punished by Allah - that these non-believers are deprived the blessings to cheer/pray on these occasions on the correct day/night of these occasions.

Alhamdolillah.

Since the prophet (saw) was also a non-bohra, Alhumdulillah, I would prefer to be with the prophet (saw) and not you.

This is a speech being delivered by Ayatollah Modarresi at the shrine of Imam Hussein in response to the slanderous comment made by the top Wahhabi cleric in Saudi Arabia.. Keep watching to see the fury of the audience..

One would think that after almost 14 centuries, the mission of Imam Hussein and the pristine nature of his message is transparently clear. On the same token, one would also think that the demonic nature of Yazeed and his cohorts is also as abundantly obvious.

For how could anyone exploit people's ignorance of the hard historical facts and justify the barbaric murder of Imam Hussein? How can anyone conceivably explain the vicious slaughtering of the 6 month old infant and the starving of women and children to death? And after all the atrocities committed by Yazeed's army, how can anyone brand his authority as"legitimate" or even go as far as to have the audacity to blame Imam Hussein for the crimes committed on Ashura 61 A.H.?!

And if an ignorant individual were to be found who is blind to the manifest truth, they might be dismissed as illiterate or simply insane, but when a the top ranking, government appointed cleric makes those outrageous assertions, it reveals deeply rooted malice and venomous scorn towards every divine ideal and every ethical standard. It speaks of far ranging moral dilemmas and a seriously flawed and perverted sense of judgment.

The attached video shows one such individual. He is Abdul Aziz Aal Al Sheikh, the grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia, and the direct grandson of Bin Abdul Wahhab, the founder of the Wahhabi religion which is responsible for every atrocity, and every act of terror around the world. The video also includes footage from people's reaction to the comments and the utter outrage at the shrine of Imam Hussein in the holy city of Karbala and the historic speech by one of Iraq's leading Shia scholars, Ayatollah Sayed Hadi Al Modarresi, in which he emphatically denounced the comments by the Wahhabi cleric and challenged him to reveal his true intentions during the Arba'een processions.

I agree with the shia speaker 100% in his argument that if bayah for Yazeed is legitimate, then Bayah for firaun is also legitimate and bayah for Namrood is also legitimate. If the Sunni mufti is unable to figure out the difference between what is wrong and what is right, then he shouldn't be the mufti in the first place. I completely disagree with his claim that whoever is in authority needs to be followed without question. There is no doubt he will say something like that. Remember, all Saudi clerics are paid and regulated by the Saudi monarchy. A paid mufti is not allowed to say it is ok to rise up against leadership that is wrong, otherwise, the Saudi Zaadas will be out on the streets. Sudais, whose recitation of the Quran is pretty famous, was thrown in Jail for speaking out against the Saudi leadership.

If the bayah for Yazeed, nominated by Caliph Muawiyah, is not legitimate, why is bayah for all previous Caliphs (except Ali who was nominated by Prophet himself) legitimate? After all, our resident Wahhabi maintains that these Caliphs were in place because Allah Himself wanted it. (Otherwise Allah would not have allowed it!)

Wahhabis always claim that they kiss Hajar al-Aswad because Prophet kissed it and there is merit in it because of that. Yet Husain's head was Prophet's 'bosa gah' (مكان التقبيل = بوسہ گاہ ). And these Wahhabis would pray to invoke Allah's pleasure on Yazeed!! Yazeed who denied Prophethood and disrepected Husain's head.

You perceive Prophet Mohammed s.a.w.w. was like you a Wahabi /Sunni?

Fatimi Dawat (Bohras) = Islam. Proof: Bohras and Prophet s.a.w.w. both observe fix number of days of fast during Ramadan.

You, Wahabi, Sunni and Ithna Asheri do not follow the Sunnat of Mohammed s.a.w.w. nor the Quran (2:184). It seems because of non-compliance of this (2:184) command of Quran by all non-mumineen i.e. non-Bohras Prophet Mohammed s.a.w.w. prophesied that all sects will go to hell except for one sect (Bohra Maslaq).

[anajmi]

(except Ali who was nominated by Prophet himself)

This has been discussed on this board many times before. No such nomination exists. It is an erroneous interpretation of a statement made by the prophet (saw).

You cannot have it both ways. You want Wahhabis to support Yazeed to justify your own idol worship. If all Wahhabis were to reject Yazeed tomorrow for being an evil figure, porus will probably be more disappointed than Yazeed himself!!

badrijanab,

The prophet (saw) was a non-bohra and did not follow the bohra interpretation of 2:184. In fact, even Daimul Islam does not support the bohra interpretation of 2:184. Besides, badrijanab's own interpretation of 2:184 has changed after he got hammered. Previously, only the dawoodi bohra sect was following 2:184 correctly, now he has decided to include all bohra sects and changed the name of the sect to "Bohra Maslaq".

This is always amazing & common to see... denigrate Science whenever it remotely contradicts any religious beliefs. But at the same time constantly try to rationalize and justify religious beliefs using Science, and mooch off on the credibility and respect that comes along with it. If you are fasting because of your faith, why care finding scientific reasons for doing it? You surely don't reject or change your beliefs based on new knowledge anyway.

[anajmi]

Mustansir,

I apologize for all religious folks. Apparently, science to tere baap ka maal hai!!
