Dawoodi Bohra Forum

I am surprised PDB does not think politically, if they have behind the scenes so be it, to support Mazoom to force the rift. He needs solid support of thousands and a delegation has to visit him to plead that he steps up his claim. If he has not then we need to convince him for the sake o f our fut...

The alternative, though difficult and trouble some, is desist in paying these officials. Start asking questions. Do not succumb to thier pressurizing antics. No one will provide you an alternative, unless you develop one yourself. When these "huge-number-who-dont-supprt" start asking those...

How many mosques have the progressive built for the bohras where a bohra who is annoyed by the jamaat can come and pray, secondly from where this website is getting funded from why isnt the accounts and source of funds made public.

Dr Bazaat Tahera Qutbuddin, Daughter of Mazoon e Dawat, is associate professor of arabic studies at U of chicago. She apparently has published few articles and written a book on syedi moyyed shirazi. She holds a PhD in Arabic studies from Harvard and has taught in Yale. http://nelc.uchicago.edu/facu...

What logic can be expected from some one, who consider Prophet as ruler and Islam as asset.

I think what Nafisa wants to know/discuss that why do we Bohra call ourself "bohris or bori". Answer probably is that it has its origin in mumbai, where due to amalgamation with gujrati/marathi speaking crowd, it has rudimented to Bori. The mohalla, which has a large concentration of DBs, ...

Neither does your thoughts is official stand of Bohra Youth or Dawoodi Bohra Jamaat. No one has to tell me any thing, i know iit as i am part of reformist dawoodi bohra jamaat. We beleive in equality, not in relegious superiority. As far as the site is concerned, it is a commendable effort made by a...

Simplicity and Tenacity are the two traits, which defines Mr Engineer in true manner. He doggedly fought aganist regime of Royal Clergy, without any one's support. My deepest condolences to his bereaved family and prayers for his departed soul. Admin- Can we please have Badrijanab et al be asked to...

There is a chance a small group will split and reformist congregate around the new group . Qutbi provides the continuation of Dawoodi Bohra ideology , without radical change. It is like a change of guards yet the core remains. It is convenient and safe to back Qutbi. Bohra Spring, Why would (and fo...

I completely agreed what Zulfikar said here but still what will happen next ? I wish that i can explain to my brother , sister father and mother....i can not say any single word against mansoos in front of them.. This is really very difficult to change their faith.

Ammar This is a free anonymous forum and is run by Progressive/Reformist minded Dawoodi Bohras. We do not ask any one's identity, be it orthodox(mainstream, if you like) or reformist minded.

The Inside Story Revealed They(the senior reformists) believe this hilarious and most childish rumour mill (and branding this as hilarious and childish is by the reformist themselves who know that this entire conspiracy theory is only a imaginative fantasy of some idiots) being circulated is actual...

How does it matter, even if Syedana knew what he is doing. He clearly didnt do appoint a successor till very late, because of political situation at hand. He would have surely known, if he had appointed any one, there would be in-fightings. Even if, he had appointed some one else (for that matter, M...

I agree that most of the posts in this forum turns into Shia-Sunni debates or unnecessary mine-is-better-than-yours kind of narratives. This is not the first time that readers of the forum has objected to such mudslinging. But every time, this verbal diarrhea stops for sometime and then it starts ag...

What are these so-called-reliable-sources about Progressive approaching Alavi Jamaats. Any backups or just heard a rumour?
Why would they choose Alevi Jamaat? Why not the we-are-the-most-pure-dawoodi-bohras. DB Jamaat would any day accept any progressive joining thier camp.

Incredibe, no one was kicked out they went on their own, and as profastian has replied that it really does not matter in financial terms or for numbers sake if reformists come back to the fold, they hardly number around a couple of thousand. Br Aqs, Small correction, No one went on thier own. Read ...

Everything is ok, as long as you pay your dues(Read Wajebat) on time. In God They Trust, Rest all must pay Cash.

aligns, Your reply awaited. Before I answer ur question, can you answer the question I asked in the very first post of this thread? For ur reference, quoted below: ........

Br. OzMujahid,

My only request was that no one should ask any one to leave this board. I hope this clarifies.

I am very sorry to say this but this forum SUCKS. The recent threads on this forum will piss off any dawoodi bohra who is interested in any reforms whatsoever. The month of Muharram is extermely important from bohra stand point. Any bohra visiting this forum will be thouroughly disappointed with th...

What Agakhan does is none of my concern, no offense intended. We are not here to discuss (nor am i interested in) or compare syedana vs any one else. No please, there is a section called " islam today" , please spare us "dim-witted less grey matter containing bohris.

This moron is trying to divert the attention from the topic with his so-called scholarly preaching. He can not fool other by his disclaimer. It was his hidden faith for which he was expecting some support. Having failed to get support, the coward has backed from his original position. My question s...

Incredible, Salim, MuslimFirst,

May i request you to continue Ismaili vs non ismaili debates in ISLAM TODAY section.
