Hahahaha...this time, North Americans and the West Europeans are f***d big time, not just the middle easterners…remember the early days of bush thugministration…within two weeks in the office, the greatest tragedy was hatched behind the closed doors by that motherf***g Dick Cheney and the rest of th...

If mistakes were made...so that’s past, and can be remedied sooner or later to a degree and can be used to learn from… In most of the developing countries, there is always a threat from internal sources such as corporate and political corruption with cultural and social degradation but also from ext...

If I may suggest…I think one of the best way to know more about any religion or anything is to read reputable and recognized books about it…from different sources. Also communicate or approach to people in person if possible or other private settings like emails, who are some sort of authority or sp...

When I read about this book here, my first reaction was like…who is publishing and distributing this book? Is it from any Jamati institution or the national council and if so, which is that? Because, I personally think that the idea of gathering pretty much all of the Hazar Imam’s Farmans, Taliqas a...

In last few years or maybe a decade or so, I observed that, there has a been a trend which is surfacing or appearing on a mainstream social lifestyles in North America where straights and homosexuals are much more comfortable and enjoying each others’ companies in a much open and welcoming spirits. ...

As a Pakistani and a fair amount of time spent observing Pakistani affairs…I think Pakistan’s leadership did make couple of mistakes right at Pakistan’s birth and after that such as national language issue and regional and international alignment mishap but what happened on July 5th, 1977 was the ki...

Hmm…Well, I read somewhere that Hazar Imam visited Iran…or possibly Iraq in 1990 and met important Ayatollahs (not necessarily from the ruling elites) and discussed geo-religious and political situation in the area…and these figures pledged their allegiance to Hazar Imam and received His blessings… ...

Does anybody know here with certainty when the last time was that His Highness the Aga Khan visited Iran, officially or un-officially? I would appreciate the information.

There is little talk of something that could drastically reduce healthcare prices in U.S. : Health. Current numbers vary from 23.6 million to 24 million of U.S. citizens with diabetes, depending on which study you read. From 2007 to 2009, the number has increased by 15%. Most studies predict that in...

Hey amigo, are you sure you didn’t just forget v between r and e in your last name, like Pervez…or you’re really an amigo? Anyways, I’ve been to Durango, Mexico once, about 10 years ago… with a relative who is in some mining business down there…I was hoping to find someone like Salma Hayak …but man,...

It feels kind of paradoxical that Pakistan did not have an official Golden Jubilee visit of Hazir Imam…but I woud say that He knows best.

man, you are being so illogical, judgmental and off the topic here...so, I'm not gonna argue.

Agakhani, I am not sure how else I can say or explain that. I guess, it’s simple enough. I’m also not sure what you mean by... It seems to me that you are not respect our Imams and compare them with other Muslims, that make me uncertain about your faith in Ismailisam. Correct me if I am wrong, but d...

You have 2 questions from me? Hmmm…I don’t recall asking you for anything…

Anyways, Ismailism is like peanuts for me…and yes, I am a believer. I believe in myself because I AM THE GOD…HA HA HA…

THE SPEECH THAT STARTED THE WAR AGAINST IRAQ... “…The country that exerts the greatest influence on the Arab Gulf and its oil will consolidate its superiority as an unrivaled superpower.

I see that a lot of people tend to depend on ‘predictions’ and prophecies and quick answers like that from some intelligent and authoritative entities…and, to me, that really seems against the very basics of human relationship with Almighty and the Universe that He created…I believe that He has give...

Shiraz, my wife and I are learning new recipes of Biryani and other Mutton Dishes…just the other day around a frozen lake in Gatineau Park with some friends; we were roasting a whole Goat dipped in Mughalai Masala. Some local people around us were inquiring so hungrily... Man, food sometimes makes m...

As for as Santa…it’s just a fairy tale for kids, just like in any culture there is something…to mesmerize them with magical feelings of Holiday Season and winter…I think, nobody is pushing him onto them.

North America and Europe is predominantly Christian while Muslim, Jews or other non Christians are minorities.

Hello Everyone,

Merry Christmas…and Happy New Year!

Nanwalla, I will try to look into that and try to understand myself and explain my thought on it if I can sometimes week after next…school’s finals are starting tomorrow and I will be really busy for a week… By the way, picking and choosing (interpretation) what suits best depending upon time is wha...

I would suggest reading the entire post before replying. I said: "You do not need to interpret it literally, however there is meaning to be derived from it." I do not interpret it literally because I do not believe that every non-Isma'ili is destined for hell fire. However, there is meani...

tariqa is a way of doing something. the way I define tariqa, in our context, is a "way of practicing religion." Hence, a way of practicing Islam. Since a preamble is required in order to define tariqa, that is why I identify religion first. You identify based on the preamble, fine. Howeve...

Shiraz, what a wonderful video link you provided... I'm sure lots princesses had their eyes on Hazar Imam those days...very impressive video quality.

Thanks.

Pardesi, This discussion is just leading to a dead end…like most others. You didn’t explain those numbers or anything else with any evidence or logic, you pretty much only said the same things in different words and made some assumptions about those numbers and repeated same old “myths”... …we all h...
