It would be more better if they could provide concrete proof of Nass. Secondly, if they could manage to get a statement from Mazoon saheb.
The news cycle is over. This was done by Kothar late as they knew that HT is not going to publish it since this is old news and by sending this email to entire Bohras community all over the world, they want to show guillable Bohras that they did take action and it HT who refused to print their version. In few weeks this story will be history.ghulam muhammed wrote:It seems that HT has still not replied to the letters which means that they are not ready to take back their words, there seems to be no apology from the newspaper also because if any such apologies would have been issued then the same would be flashed on every Kothari website, every bohra masjid and every bohra roza right from raudat tahera to galiakot and burhanpur. There would have been one more 'Fateh Mubin' day !!

in other words he already has sucked up millions of dollars from community and already secured his family in America, Canada and UK.humanbeing wrote:Mazoon is too told to fight kothar, why would he stress his retirement at this juncture. He rather stay quiet and watch the show !
Mazoon saheb had vacated Saifee Mahal months before and he is not residing in it. This attached letter doesn`t mention his name for once. So, no reasons to believe for a patch up.Reporter wrote:Apparently Sayedna Saheb is back in Saifee Mahal and Mansoos and Mazun have patched up.
Here is the problem with you. In your effort to deliver low blows, you lose your credibility. QJ's mailing address in two countries and an email address is available in the letterhead to Hindustan Times. But I am sure you already knew that.I am writing this open letter as now-a-days your location is not known, whether use are in Saifee Mahal or Saifee hospital, Khandala or on foreign trip.
So it proves an unchallengeable fact that,S. Insaf wrote:An open Letter to Mr. Qaid Johar,
Dear Mr. Qaid Johar,
As-Salam Alekum,
I have gone through your letter to Hindustan Times dated 23rd April 2013 on internet regarding the article (Talk of rift among Bohras over Syedna’s successor).
You say that the article is replete with false information- in particular the following:-i)
“According to historical precedence, the Mazoon is next in line to take the position as leader of the community.”
ii) “While the Mazoon has declared on record that he is the Syedna’s successor, there is no clarity on how much support he has.”
These are completely false![/color]
Dear Mr, it is fascinating to know your knowledge about a Faith you are supposed to profess!
Ever since the high institution of Fatemi Dawat has become a personal asset of your royal family of Sultan and Shahzadas, all its basic principles, morality and spirituality have been lost. It has become a tool in your hand to twist, amend and negate the basic structure to suit your material interests.
Let me describe the history from authentic written books, in brief for refreshing your memory:
As against the tyrant and oppressive rules of Umayyad and Abbasid, the Fatimid Imams had a political agenda to show the Islamic world that good government is possible with strict observance of the doctrine of Islam and they showed it after forming their Fatimid sultanate which lasted only for less than 250 years.
According to Dawoodi Bohra history after down fall of the Fatimid sultanate the propaganda of faith was taken up by the propagandists known as Dais.
From first to twenty fourth Dai, Dais lived in Yemen. Though 14th Dai came down to India and stayed temporarily in Sidhpur. Then from 25th to 42nd Dais kept on moving to Ahmadabad, Jamnagar, Ujjain, Burhanpur as due to persecution by Sunni rulers they remained busy in protection.
But because of British rule in India, the persecution ended and Dawat’s head quarter was shifted to Surat where in 1785 our 43rd Dai, Syedna Abde Ali Saifuddin established “Saifee Daras” and collected on the line of Fatemi lodge, for esoteric teaching and training, Mullahs and Mashaikh.
1. Mullahs were trained to led prayers, perform last rites of dead and tech religion.
2. the degree of Shaikh was conferred on those student who proved to be prominent scholar, distinguished himself in piety, honesty and religious devoutness.
3. Successful and selected Shaikh first elevated to the post of Mukasir, then to the post of Mazoon and then to the exalted to the post of a Dai.
(This can also be confirmed from page no. 32 of Campbell’s Bombay Gazetteer)

Well, I don't either.
Phoenix a good point why did Imams or Dais you mention need to live in palaces ?pheonix wrote:Remember the mahals the Imams lived in.

Now this fool will teach imam (a.s) and dai (r.a) , how to live and where to liveBohra spring wrote:Phoenix a good point why did Imams or Dais you mention need to live in palaces ?pheonix wrote: Remember the mahals the Imams lived in. Maybe you won't know that
Prophet Issa SAW , Mohammad, SAW , Ali AS did not live in palaces yet Imams and Dais who preach live like Ali die like Husain , themselves do not want to live like their Masters ? They had a a choice not to live in palaces.
Note a fort is not a palace.
the imams who ruled over the fatimid empire were kings besides being religious figures. what kingdom or territory does the syedna have?? is he a king or emperor? if he thinks so, then the prophet and ali presided over a much larger muslim ummah! did they live in palaces and call themselves sultans and their kids as shezaadas and zaadis?pheonix wrote: Remember the mahals the Imams lived in.

I guess one of his brother or son as Mazoon and Badral Jamali as Mukasir...Bohra spring wrote:who will Mansoos make his mazoon ?
Please confirm, because its mansoos who was son in law of Mazoon saheb and then he had divorce his daughter.Grayson wrote:
Taha's wife is Mazoon's daughter, and thus his son-in-law.
