Re: Khassi Bakra

You're right to raise this concern. Islam strongly emphasizes mercy towards animals. Causing unnecessary pain, especially without anesthesia, goes against the principles of humane treatment taught in our faith. Ethical methods must always be considered.

Re: Sticky: Dawoodi Bohra's Succession of Dai Case in Mumbai High Court

Interesting details from the court proceedings. It’s clear the judge found the Mullaji’s claims unsupported by religious texts or historical precedent. The distinction between worldly and religious ownership is crucial here. Thanks for sharing this detailed account.
