Amusing article bhen but please remember that the restrictions that frustrate you so much are actually part and parcel of islam, so should be upheld.

Re: reformist have missed the golden opportunity!
Hello birader bhai, it was yours and matheist bhais posts which finally got me to join the forum! Although I agree with your previous posts, I must disagree with this one. Both progressive and traditional bohras dont come here because they simply arent bothered about the place. Like you said yourse...

Re: Maatam for mind control and subjugation..
Why do people like you come here when you dont believe in the progressive or traditional bohra faith? Nobody is forcing you to do matam, so why does it bother you so much if we do matam? The current 'Purjosh Matam' and matam at each and every occasion and matam for Khushi of Maula has NEVER been pa...

Re: Maatam for mind control and subjugation..
I agree, but unfortunately it seems most people here are not shia so they will have no respect. Does the Kothari Goons have any respect for Maatam. Did you see people shouting Ya Hussain at the train station. Do Amtes and Abdes have any respect for Maatam? All bohras respect matam as do most shias ...

Re: reformist have missed the golden opportunity!
The reach of this forum is actually more widespread than one would imagine from just the few prolific participants. One key thing, as GM pointed out, is that a lot of the posts here get spread like fire on Whatsapp and other SMS services. Also, probably a lot of Bohras come here to read the forums,...

Re: reformist have missed the golden opportunity!
Some reformists did try to intervene in the court case. They prepared a statement and hired a lawyer, but after much consultation the lawyer advised that they have no locus standi in this case. The refromists' angle was, I believe, to state that Nass is a dicey business and there have been disputes...

Re: Ashara 1436 Surat
Intriguing thread.
One person spreads a total lie, and another calls him out, using admittedly quite angry language.
The person who lied is not questioned, however the one who got angry about the lie is criticized.
What a sad state of affairs.
