Dawoodi Bohra Forum

About 5 days earlier there were several photos on the maulumaat.com website of the syedna standing over a bloodied lion - posing with rifle in hand.

these have been removed. any ideas as to why?

I think they would be interesting to send to the Times of India or mumbai samachar

Sajjad: He probably did 'pull the trigger'. What these goones (poachers) do in Tanzania is abosultely drug an animal the lion preys on. The lion feeds of it, gets doped itself on the poisoned flesh of its prey. Then it's easy pickings for happy holiday hunters like our burhanuddin. Some goonda chamc...

Some feedback & info.

following is an email from a dawoodibohras network. such twisting of deen and propagating shirk and lack of aql. "We mumineen, in our lives never face such a paralysis of decision, as we have a Maula to decide for us." ---------- DECISION PARALYSIS: Late in the night of 2nd August 1990, th...

I would certainly be interested in any information about these 9200 families.

I wonder how many of them are actually sub-families amongst the khotar themselves?

Probably all!

Muddai: In no way whatsoever would I trivialize what is happening in Iran and in no way do I say this is a "bohra issue". Research into this matter is not even the issue.I only linked the 2 in relation to an example of a struggle from within. Respect to Iranian dissidents is all I was sayi...

The recent protests seen in Iran against the tyrannical rule of that country's Govt and it's misuse of deen should surely be a wakeup call to all bohras. "Sitting or making individuals sit in the position of divine and absolute power is a clear heresy towards God and a clear affront to human di...

DEAR GHAZALA, I AM RE-RE-POSTING SOME INFORMATION PUT UP IN THE PAST WHICH INSHALLAH WILL BE HELPFUL TO YOU.

As a Muslim you are not forbidden to marry a christian. The Quran does state that for marraige, Ahle-Qitaab (people of the book ie: christians/ jews) are not haraam for marriage.

I don't have any specific quotes or sources of hand but will investigate. Perpahs others can help out and advise?

With the usual hype that surrounds Ashura for the bohras - more of whom seem to flovk to the Syedna wherever he is than those that go for Hajj, there is always the anticipation that the Syedna will at ashura appoint his successor. This year this was even more "expected" due to the recent t...

The figures listed in these charities (2.24 million pounds) is peanuts for these people.

There of course must be more and this is just a simple front.

Muslim First: Perhaps I wasn't clear in my post, or perhaps you misunderstood me. I say that these things, if out of pure "cultural tradition" - then there is nothhing wrong with them. All cultures/ nationalities/ races/villages/ townahips have there own little cultural tidbits However , i...

Sis Jinx: There is little, most likely no religius reason at all for the thal/coconut/beetle nut (a narcotic substance now banned in bombay) etc.... on pehli raat. (My assumption) This is just a cultural tradition upheld by our forefathers and I think it is fine so long as it is not put out of conte...

Br Qiyam: Did you goto perform Hajj? If so mubarak to you and alhamdulillah! Now that you are back I would like you to comment on these two posts please?

Br(s) Qiyam/ Simon/ Abde's

Where art thou?

Brother Khan: Yes I am bohra - in that my family is part of the bohra community. But I do not like to associate myself with what the bohra sect has become. Mas'shallah I wish to say I am part of the Muslim Ummah as well as a fatimis' ismaili believer. - And not a dweller on present khotar folklore a...

Brother Khan! I think your example proves that all we need is a little bit of "aql" and should have safety in Allah by remembering he has asked all Muslims to pray together. MUSLIMS (not sects/ bohras/ sunnis/ wahabbi's etc...) We are all part of the ummah in my personal opinion/ belieif a...

It seems that the Mazoon is spending his time with "ra-ees's" of Hon Kong and no dobt receiving royal treament that he would get (or used to get) from Saifee Mahl. This community must be a stronglhold for the Mazoon as he and his family of thugs are trying to winover the people of HK. Spli...

Brother Qiyam: " Oh beloved maula, we beseech you to forgive us our sins weather intentional" , ----Singapore Shabbab Jan 15 2003 Your silence on this matter quite frankly is not the least bit surprising as you seem to have no justification or argument on this clear case of SHIRK by your S...

Br MF Mulla Qiyam (paid for his mulla title no doubt) will say nothing. He has been told to "delete" such emails and internet propaganda. Heres more hillarious propaganda from DBNET --------------------------------- RESOLVE AND ACTION OF ABU DHABI MUMINEEN: All mumineen resolved to be aler...

This is absolutely disgusting. It seems that the masterminds of DBNET have already started 'spinning the wheels of propaganda'. WIth the Mazoon now a semi glorified Thug, there will no doubt be several cases of baraat issued. DBnet's Admin seem to have taken one of the first steps, in trying to actu...

Can anyone shed some light on the riots and fighting in the streets that occured during the recent khotar mass weddings?

I have heard there were brawls and rumbles involving followers of Mazoon but do not want to be spreading any rumours.

DOes anyone know what actually happened?

Br Simon, I cannot believe that Imam Jafar-as-Sadiq would have said such things about prayers. These is saying that prayers are unacceptable if not through him, and in effect giving him god-like status. Salvation is through Allah alone and not through any other means. I think this is one of the flaw...

Surti Bohras may well be educated in the sense that the Surti diaspora has amongst it's community some very qualified professionals. However there are a very major handful of them that are extremely pro-khotar to say the least. When asked to jump - they will respond "how high?". Mohd - I d...

Br Qiyam: The Dai may receive "...reports", however, by suggesting "...that he comes to know every little thing" is far fetched. If anything what is inferred is that a total 'BIG BROTHER' state of control and monitorring is in effect. Now what is the point of this in terms of Rel...
