Re: Syedna's latest shikar

These pictures are not new. We have seen them before. Besides the first picture is of a wild bull not a baby elephant.

Re: Divorces among Bohras

I know of atleast two cases, one in NY and one in Chicago, where families had won the lottery to get the Nikah read by Sayedna himself. Both ended up in divorce soon after. So much for the blessing and happiness.

Re: Divorces among Bohras

Talking about divorces, one of the reasons is that the potential bride and the groom are not given sufficient time to get to know each other well. Often times, and especially when Sayedna is in town parents pressure their children to agree and rush to get the Nikah done in Sayedna's presence, which ...

Re: Egypt outlaws female circumcision-Would Bohras follow?

Sajid Zafar
Why it is your concern?

In any gatherings or functions when there are foreighn dignitaries present, Kothar and Co. make it a point to mention about how Sayedna teaches his followers to obey the rules of the land where they live. So the question is will Kothar instruct Bohras in ...

Re: Humble request to Daiz-Zaman

We should all start by cutting down our wajebats to Kothar and divert our giving to poor relatives. I know the pressure by Amils will be high, but \we should make a start. We can do this by refusing any increase in the wajebat to kothar,diverting the increase instead to any poor relatives or freinds ...

Re: RAZA

They only make the bohris call them Shehzadas and shehzadis. Outside of the Bohrah community no body calls them Pinces's opr Princesses. If they did, They 'd be be laughed out of the society.

Re: SYEDNA SAHEB'S 95TH BIRTHDAY
