Re: Tired

At the heart of all this is the fact that eventually everything comes down to each individual's own situation and choice in life. We are all accountable in front of the Almighty for our own deeds and no mortal human can claim to know what is in another's heart. Suffice to say that, as the saying goe...

I attend events that are meaningful to me at a spiritual level. Why should I have to leave to prove that I am against them? What has that achieved for the b...

Re: Esoteric sermons of Maulana Ali

Each time, Moses is exasperated by Khidr's actions, and finally Khidr tells Moses that they can no longer travel together, and that Moses must go his own way. The piece that you forgot to mention is that before khidr and Musa (as) part ways, khidr reveals the "taawil" of his actions to Mu...

Re: Esoteric sermons of Maulana Ali

https://ismailignosis.com/ - Biradar bhai what is your opinion about this website? I have read some articles there and I am guessing there is a lot in common with perhaps what gets told in sabaqs apart from what happened after the Nizar/Mustali split.

Wow Mr. Saif53 - you have resorted to gossiping now - and you make a completely made-up accusation that the article is inspired by some TV serial. I can only assume that you are a fan of this profanity filled TV serial for it to be in the forefront of your thoughts. Shame on you.
