Besides the Quran, ask your Sunny freinds to read the event of Gadir-E-Khumm and they will deffinetly find that Prophet Mohammad declared Hazarat Ali as his succesor and "VASI" in the presence of many Muslims.

YAM,

I recently had a discussion with some Sunni Muslims, which only except the Quran and the Sunnah as the only Source of proof regarding that the Imam is the right successor. Is there any quranic source which can proof the existance. Also they believe, that of the Sura 3 ayat 7 no one else ...

Mowlana Sultan Mohammed Shah has said.....

Ya Ali Madad,

Can someone please explain what's the significance of Amber (The stuff that smells good) in Jama'at Khana?

Haroon,
It is true that, it is very hard to digest 'DAS AVTAAR" theory for those peoples, who do not have much knowledge about our religion and Hindu religion and do not have much knowledge about the evolution. First of all they get shock when they read or listen the Hindu names and strange ...

Mowlana and Shri are titles of honour. They have the same meaning....


That maybe. Then why in our Du'a it's mentioned as Mawlana , as apposed to Shri. I would stick with Mawlana since it's mentioned in our holly Du'a.[/i]

I am an Ismaili and I haven't heard the term Das Avatar before. Can you explain what is Das Avatar, please? Pardon my ignorance. You might very well know that Ismailis come from anywhere in the world and not only from India. I believe term Das Avatar is mainly in India, and I am not from India ...

Why the land of subcontinent ...

There's nothing to be illogical, pal! Tell us honestly; do you not want to argue, because you don't have anything meaningful to say? I thought so!

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…

Brother Maherali:

It's just a suggestion, and don't get it the wrong way.

If one wants to read NT Times, they can go to its website and read the news, I guess it will be more interesting if you put it in your own words and give your point of view. Wouldn't you agree?

It's actually "Aaq'ub'bat" Q is actually not an exact reperesentation of Arabic corresponding letter, which is here in this word. And it means "Future" "Fate", if you will.

Regarding the Circulation of Kalame Imam e Zaman

It goes without saying that you have been doing a tremindouse job in maintaining this site. I just had an idea:

Whatif the color of the border of the page(s) should be changed from RED+BLUE to RED+GREEN. That could symbolize the color of our flag?

It's just an idea and don't have to agree ...

ALL ABOUT 786
This story dates back to several thousand years ago when man used to count things or events on his fingers. The Latin word for finger is 'digiti.' That has given us the English word 'digit' for a numeral.

Then man learned to use symbols for each number he needed to represent.

786 is used for wirting 'Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem' .
'786' is also aggregation of the numbers of Hari Krishna'.

H(a)iri Kr(i)shna h-5, r-200, r-10, k-20, r-200, sh-300, n-50, a-1 = Aggregate of 786

Thus, the aggregate number of these letters (Hari Krishna) equals 786
