So it seems.
Another reason why one should not rely on the "truth that everyone knows"

Strange!!! Rather than take action on issues that are very clearcut (like arresting people violating the rule concerning keeping of beard, closing down bars and discos,preventing rape, stopping music, taking concrete actions on the the ban of alcohol, etc) the authorities decide to use their power i...

Here is a copy of the statement in reply to the above mentioned petition. However, I have also been informed by a brother that some of the information presented in this statement is wrong and misleading. Dear Brothers and Sisters, Re: Tanganyika Education Council (TEC) Properties. Salaam Alaikum. It...

Thank you for the insight and clarification. I still am under the impression that the wasila concept means that generally, I am asking through them. But then again, you are right when you say that when we are asking from them, we do so with the intention that them granting our duas is by the permiss...

This is just a tip of an iceberg. There are a lot more scandals done by the community leaders, and surprisingly it has been on the rise in the recent few years. One "well known" is the snatching of property belonging to one Ismaili (I need to confirm) some years ago for the extension/space behind th...

True. Intercession can easily be proved from the Quran and Ahadith.. But even in our daily lives we have examples of such concepts. One everyday life example we see is the beggars on the road. When they ask/beg from us, they definitely do not consider us their sustainer/god. They however believe tha...

and leave aside books which claim water existed in kerbala to flourish. As you will be aware, and so is the Muslim and Non muslim world, there are massive differences in acceptance of authentic history between muslims. You must also be aware about the process that the Jafari School of thought uses ...

Syedbaqir, perhaps you have misunderstood the point of discussion Yes, we shias understand nawhas are nawhas, meant to incite emotion and not a source of history. Thank you for clarifying. For a short while I was under the impression that some members have been led astray by listening to these nauh...

With regards to Marsia, Poems and Nauhas, NO ONE, atleast no true shia relies on them ONLY for history. Even when we are present when nauhas/marsias are being recited, we certainly do not put them in the same category of authenticity as the majlis that is recited between them. There are many nauhas ...

Re: SRSS and beard keeping by students

To the best of my knowledge, I did my A-levels there, and I never got a problem with it. Yes, the wahhabi style beards are definitly not allowed. The school administration has made it clear that it wants an official letter from the jamaat requesting its member students be allowed to keep their beard...

Qasr Prayers - Where is the Point of Tarakhkhus in Dar

Almost all of us have traveled at one time or another in our short lives. And most of these journeys are quite long, maybe going to another region altogether if not out of the country. However, there are times when we do make a long journey and can still come back from it in a day. eg kibaha,bagamoy...

Re: WOMEN looking at Men doing Zanjeer ????

1. Strange that the only time someone remembers hijab is when they want to use it against a deeply rooted religious practise. Where are all these "hijab police" all year round when non Islamic practises happen in our communities? 2. The question of women looking at men doing zanjeer is,i believe, fl...

HILARIOUS HIJABS!!!! The author of this article "Observations on Hijab" is unknown. It is however, thought to be written by a brother. Funny as it is, there are a number of lessons to be learnt... It has been my personal observation that some Muslim girls and women do not realise the significance o...

Coming back to the Zanjeer issue: Has anyone noticed that none of the great maraja have decreed zanjeer to be haraam. Before you ask, Ayatullah Khamenei has not said anything against zanjeer itself, but rather the circumstances surrounding it. Does it imply that once our 12th Imam reappears and the ...
