Dawoodi Bohra Forum

The cottage industry of hating Muslims in India is converting into a high tech industry. Now they have tons of funding. They are using social media with all their power. I hope people will learn before they loose a lot.

Brother Salim, Ya Ali Madad, I had seen this article in August. I have been to Hama,( which is very close to Salamiyeh and Homs), where there are Alawis, Sunnis, Twelvers, Ismailis, etc. They all live in harmony.

My not taking sides of Pakistan or India, but one thing I learned that India media shows always anti-Pakistani propaganda and Pakistani media shows anti-India propaganda. While the truth is very different many times.

Pakistan was growing a lot faster than any of her neighbors. Pakistan started achieving the heights which is not easily seen in any 3rd world countries.

Tomorrow Hindus or Christians will rule, if they will be as evil as these wahabies, there w...

Hi AgnosticIndian, You can leave God but God may not leave you. God will attract your to him by the ways you may not imagine. While living in society, try to be just and truthful. Because that is what you can do from your side, and if there is God, he will attract you to himself. And being honest ca...

If you don't want to go to domes to pray to the mediator, you can go there to pray for the mediator.

In a few top colleges half of the Muslim population is ismaili. Can anyone verify this statement with factual statistics? I don't think you can find exact data anywhere.
