Dawoodi Bohra Forum

Not sure if people here are aware but there is also a reddit space https://www.reddit.com/r/exBohra/ where, despite it saying exBohra, it does welcome everyone and is a safe space for venting and sharing.

I don't think they are implying that they know more. They are just stating that science does not acknowledge that there is a supernatural entity. That's the intent behind the statement "why these things happen". Religion says it is because of Allah, science does not.

There is a quote attributed to Imam Jafar Sadiq AS:

"Fasting on the day of Ghadeer is equivalent to fasting throughout the entire age of the world… It is the greatest festival of Allah. Allah has not sent any prophet but that he celebrated this day as Eid and was aware of its sanctity. It is known ...

Repeating my posting from another thread (I think it is more appropriate here):

Bro Biradar, regarding the whole concept of nass, in another thread - viewtopic.php?f=14&t=11267 - I shared a paper written by Paul E Walker. It made interesting reading and touched on this same question. It appeared to ...

However, a more fundamental question is: can an Imam change his mind about his successor? Are there other examples in the past? Or, given that on of key doctrines of Ismailism is that the Imam is infallible, one must assume by default that the nass once done won't be changed?


Bro Biradar ...

First of, shouldn't the above post be in the court case thread?

Secondly, is it really true that this is the argument presented by the SMS side - that nass can be changed and they have used the Imam Mustali/Nizar episode as evidence? I know on the website maintained by Saif53 they have made the ...

The UK trip did not happen and instead he went to Egypt and then Kenya - currently in Mombasa.

Hello Friends,

Its been long since my last post -

Recently I heard in Kuwait from Janaab who visited for Ramazan saying Our Dai is only the Imam and we people cant see it because of our Gunaah.

Hes from Panjatan as welll, How can he claim this ? can someone from Kuwait reconfirm all this ...

The irony is that they abused India, and their Mola resides in India. If they hate India so much why dont they find a community and molvi in pakistan and leave the dawoodi bohra community?


Don't quite get this. Why is Pakistanis cheering their nation's victory equal to abusing India? And why ...

Can anyone from UK highlight "Dawat -E- Haadiyah UK Trust" Who hold the cheque book for this account. I have heard along the grapevine. Each shezada, Shezadis have personal bank accounts and each accounts amount to 100 Crore ++ in each account. Saifee Mahal has Faucets and shower heads of pure ...

No one should force you to pay any amount. Decide how much you need to pay and state that as your final amount. Don't get into negotiations as this is not something to negotiate if you truly understand what zakaat means. If you need to understand how to calculate the amount then use this as ...

I stay in Nallasopara, near Mumbai. Here JAMAT COMMITTEE litterally force ppl to pay as per their toungue's demand to get MASJID ENTRY PASS & NIYAZ CARD. Demanded Amounts are in thousands of Rupees, e.g. 25000/-, 20000/- etc per annum. Previous all collection heads, like SABIL, HOOB etc are ...

Ok back to topic what does sabeel have to do with misaq.

No one commented if without misaq will the person be stopped from entering the centres or pray in saf.

What is Fetemi Dawaat ruling on misaq. Is it compulsory?


As far as I know, misaq is only used to classify someone as an adult so ...

Admin needs to be alert as it looks like the trolls are now getting their sexually starved kicks from this forum.

Case update:

Next Date:- 27/06/2017 Stage:- FOR DIRECTION [ORIGINAL SIDE MATTERS]

Don't read too much into going to Kenya. It was the official opening of Jamea there and it is logical to expect all madrasah teachers to go there to attend.

Can you please stop being a troll? The silence is also an answer. Grow up and accept it. Stop being a troll.

I specifically agree with you on this point. That rant he made in the Zikra waaz is a very clear sign of his lack of Dai qualities. The way he was ranting and making petty arguments suited a common lay person rather than a Dai getting inspiration from a hidden Imam. There did not look that there was ...

And this is the crux really that it is not something that even needs to be abolished. It never was the same as what the FGM movement is all about. All it needed was to explain what the procedure is and remove the secrecy shroud over it. How is it different from what happens to boys? It is even less ...

Bro Biradar that was a strongly worded write up. However, there is a part of me, in the light of the revelations that came after his demise via SKQ, that thinks he was himself a prisoner of this Kothari mafia. I would like to believe that he personally did not authorise what happened. That he was ...

To be honest the language you are using makes you a prime candidate for being follower of the Mufaddali dawat. Are you sure you are not a stooge planted here? Only someone who follows their doctrine can spout so much garbage and yet think they are God's gift to humanity.

This is from 2016 AJ, when they thought they had won the court case because SKQ passed away and they had burned his effigy to celebrate. Morons nevertheless! I just realized that the grand presentation was done by the philandering Mustafa Abdulhusein. What a bunch of low lifes MS has collected in ...

it is all the same which was practiced from last hundreds of years, even mufaddalis are not confused about it.

its just that now things are coming up in media and people are talking about it.


Who said there is confusion? The confusion is what SMS created by his hypocrisy. Making official ...

Given that the MS gag order (ITS message banning spread of information) made it on this forum and on whatsapp within moments, and given the uproar it has generated in both media, one wonders how many of those that get counted with MS, are actually supportive of him....

I feel like I am a member ...

This is the message that came through today:

Awliyaullah (AS) have always taught Mumineen that keeping Dawat’s information confidential is a part of our faith.

Syedna Mufaddal Saifuddin (TUS) states that:

The knowledge imparted by Awliyah Kiram (AS) to Mumineen in waaz, sabaq etc. is exclusive to ...

No zinger bhai - it totally varies and depends on the families. Apparently the official line, if one asks, is still quite rigid. No whatsapp, no mobiles, no TV, no pictures is the official line I have heard. Yes people do their own interpretation like everything else.

This is one of my bug-bears too. It really gets me when someone says the widow cannot even speak on the phone or look at a picture of a male!!!! I mean, how is looking at a man's picture got anything to do with the iddat? Am I missing something in our glorious taawil?
