In what language MSMS at age of 8 delivered his very first Farman / Khutba, was that Arabic, Persian, English, or Hindi/Urdu. Also who wrote that Khutba.

[In Amman Jordon Ummah conference Imam declared that Ismailis follow Fiqa' i Jafferia. Imam Jafar Sadiq's hadith is, there are 7 pillars of Islam and FASTING is one of them. Now in that back ground look at the Farman made by MSMS. Fasting is to acquire Taqwa. 29/30 days fasting is not a goal but to...

. The phrase 'NOT ONLY' insists to fast in the month of Ramadhan. Would you enlighten us as to how many days of his life our Holy Prophet (PBUH) fasted (in the meaning of to abstain from food.) You will be surprised and will feel quite ignorant yourself when you find out the reply. Especially for s...

...youths are wandering today for answers. Ya Aly Madad everyone. I want to take a moment to thank from those that I am getting great feedback from "kmaherali", "nuseri", "mazharshah", "admin" and many more. I came to this forum to learn a better way to educa...

You people say Ali is Allah, by keeping this assertion of yours in mind, my question is; Was God helpless because of opposition? Then tell me why Allah created Iblees, Yazeed , Kans, Ravan, Satan, Lucifer and all the evil forces, if Allah want to make things clear then every organism got Asal ma Wa...

Mowla Ali was Khalifatul Muslimeen, all power full. He was not a king of small territory or a governor of some province. Mowla Ali had his own hand written Quran with him and he should had verified with famous and respected COMPANIONS OF PROPHET alive at that time. Also there were thousands of Hafi...

For benefit of Ummah, for benefit of coming generations, to stop future conflicts between shias and sunnis ( and arguments amongst Ismailis ) he should had given Quran as revealed. And would you please mind explaining who you are to say our Imam should have done this or that? Would you have more wi...

To zznoor: Ya Ali Madad. Nice to see you around. Kissing xyz a book,did anybody See what content was inside the outside cover ? Kissing is not admission or acceptance but an acknowledgement. A child is shown kissing his new mother on his father remarriage, he dislikes his step mother but forced to ...

You are well aware of that particular farman quoted quite few times in this forum. MSMS said; Haqiqati Momin NOT ONLY fast in the month of Ramadhan for him 360 days are always like fasting... ( KIM Oct 21, 1903, Rajkot) I have noted that the missionaries during waiz or lecture disappear the words, ...

Yes we got refreshments after the end of the Beej ceremony and fast. Thank you.

Indian and Pakistani jamaits are not rich in coparison to USA and Canada jamaits. Our refreshments were the blessed word KHANAWADAN.

Technically 12.5% called Dasond is wrong. In out terminology Dasond means 10% or DHA YAK in Persian.It is true 10% had been religious obligation from time of Prophet Adam. In Wajhu Din Nasir Khusraw has mentiond Dha Yak means 10% in chapter Zakat. In Pandiyat i Jawanmardi, translated by Ivanow on pa...

Ya Ali madad. When the words Not only is used, it there is something else or option. One can reread in analogy. Not only you get free dinner card for going hungry for 30 day ,for haqaqti club member it like 365 days of free dinner cards without going hungry. Simple option is told to Jamat what they...

From which book you grabbed that anecdote. I have heard that anecdote from a missionary, when he was asked ABOUT THE VALIDITY OF THAT MEHMANI STORY HE WAS CLUELESS. Do you expect this kind of information to be published? Much of our tradition is passed orally. So are you suggesting that this story ...

Ya Ali Madad. Yesterday I attended JK,guess what.a qasida of Rumi was recited and also its translation in Gujarati. I heard with interest, It looks like he was praying to Imam Shamsuddin and using the name Of Shams Tabrizi as a front or cover name in it. Close look may be needed to know it but not ...

Ya ALI Madad. The cosmology of number will stand true if ten Surahs are missing then 114+10=124=7. This makes it almost 8 % of the book.it we take 8% off of 1600 year ,it comes to almost 1472 years from compleatation. HELL WILL BREAK LOOSE ON ALI HATERS N SUSPETETORS .NO MERCY WILL WILL BE THERE. t...

Farmans from MSMS mentioned in same book Kalam e Imam e Mubin (one about Quran and other about fasting) but a deaf and dumb is accepting one and rejecting other because that other Farman is not serving his purpose. Please can you quote the Farman on fasting? thanks You are well aware of that partic...

How can you explain if a poor person has 7 kids to support and he hardly makes his both ends meet, can't spare money for Dasond is not eligible for constant presence of Imam though he is regular in his Dua/Bandagi. MSMS made the statement below in his Memoirs: "Our religion is our religion, yo...

My humble question; After hazrat Usman Mowla Ali was caliph for almost 5 years, why not he corrected the alterations made in Quran, still 70% suhaba were alive to verify with them and rewrite the Quran in original form. Why not succeeding Imams corrected the Quran if there were discrepancies. Hazar...

This person in one of his post to TRET claimed he knows Gujrati well. Now he is accepting that he can not read and write Gujrati. He has ruined his credibility. What about the credibility of previous quotations of Farmans and Ginans which he translated from Gujrati into English on this forum. Well ...

Yes I have that Farman, its written in gujarati book of Farman of Imam Sultan Mohammad Shah, I cant read and right gujarati so right now I cant give you the reference but I will give you by translating it from my uncle. BTW Farman was like. " KHALIFA USMAN K ZAMANEY MA QURAN MA KAI PHER BADAL ...

If your assertion is that paying dasond is a path to salvation then why we built JK's spending crores of rupees/ millions of dollars and paying huge utility bills. Just pay dasond and you are a free soul. No need of rights and rituals, religious practices, Dua bandagi, BK and majlis system, why to ...

We should not follow what Imam do, but we should follow what Imam say in his Farmans. Those who are defending their point by saying that Imam observe fasting in Ramzan so its our duty to follow whatever Imam do, those people are actually deaf and dumb. Because they are treating Imam as ordinary hum...

I am here to learn and I would appreciate if you can direct me to the farman where Imam Sultan Mohammad Shah has said that the book is corrupted. I believe you are referring here to the book as the Qur'an, right? The following is the Firman fo Mowlana Sultan Muhammad Shah suggesting that the Quran ...

Ya ALI madad. Fasting is an act to get into physical discipline .it may have in past supplemented value to prayers.there are 7 more ayats followed with options if one does not or able to fast.there is ayat that God says he wants to make religion easy. 1400 year back ,people did not travel 2 hours t...

Based upon your logic - you should wear shoes inside JK. As Hazar Imam wears his shoes inside JK. Shams. Shams, you really need to start respecting fellow Ismaili brothers and sisters beliefs. I have read your responses and often you come across to ridicule our brothers and sisters. I have not seen...

There is verse of Anant Akhado (Ashaji) which states: Aashaajee Paanch-mee baaree dasond-nee kaheeyen te sahu thee mottee jaanno jee te maanhe tame raho husheeyaar to rahesho Gur-Nar ne saath.............Haree anant..256 Oh Lord The fifth gateway is created by observance of the tithe know it as the...

Being an Ismaili I fast because; 1. Quran says." 0 ye who believe, fasting is prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you, so that you acquire Taqwa. (al Baqara 2/183 ) 2. MSMS said, " Haqiqati Mo'min NOT ONLY fast in the month of Ramadhan but for him 360 days are like fa...

It is Edward Gibbon, in The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire Vol 6 page 254 and in Philip Aziz in les Sectes de l'Islam. I am sure in many more, not to mention Imam Sultan Muhammad Shah's own handwritten affidavit in Court on Das Avatar being the tenet of faith for Ismailis: http://www.ismaili....
