LOL

i do believe this has been discussed at length and a consensus has been that this is a hand-me-down of the local customs that mingled when Islam first came to India and it merely adds some local flavour and colour so there is no real harm in it!

Hope you got it!

Wondering if you have nothing else to do which is why you have raked up an old, dead, brow-beaten topic once again

If it is happening in your living room fine, if you are practicing it in Masjid may you burn in Hell.

i AM going too, given all the bad things i have done.

Hope i dont ever see you there. May you be blessed with Paradise.

He is one of the hundreds of zaadas named Abdultaiyab and just because he belongs to the mafia clan of Saifee Mahal he is given an undue importance. This Wadhavni/Aarti rasam has become so widespread that even toddlers belonging to this mafia group consider it to be an honour. Not only the zaadas but even the zaadis of Saifee Mahal indulge in this rasam and I have personally witnessed an old bohra lady doing wadhavni to a much younger zaadi and that too, hold your breadth..................... when the zaadi came for the fateha jaman of the lady's deceased husband !!!

Bro GM,

Sometimes I wonder if you are a fly living in Saifee Mahal, or a jinn that no one can see but it can see everything and everyone

most of new generation of SMB is dumb as rock, they know nothing about world affairs or even ISLAMIC world.

all they know is reading from same bayan which their grandfather readed some years back.

if they will be asked to talk on some critical subject without paper they will go quite.

@GM:
you are not here as a reformist but some news hunting journalist. Whats the use of putting up all this pic and mocking some body on personal level also.

[think]

nothing personal. Facts speak for themselves. Your comment is indicative that you feel awkward about this coconut circling rasam too.

[ghulam muhammed]

the use of putting up all this pic and mocking some body on personal level also.

There is nothing "Personal" when it comes to actions performed by someone who calls himself a spiritual guide and the Dai of Allah. His actions reflect on the community and Islam on the whole and the same are perceived as being Islamic as he claims to represent the rightful Islam. And BTW who is mocking whom ?? The Dai and his henchmen are making a mockery of themselves by indulging in practices alien to Islam and which is similar to idol worshippers !!
