Xaf, Congratulations to you for having made it to (virtually) all the Darbars around the world. What a great post! I hope that one day you can write up a descriptive account of your Darbar experience, and share your joy with millions of Murids around the world. Perhaps, xaf, you can create a blog if...

I think the designer's during Mawlana Sultan Muhammad's time were highly creative - the Juba's were vibrant and made a statement. I find the Golden Jubilee Juba somewhat on the dull side....where are our designer's...I thought we had one or two who were world class. As is so often the case, may be m...

Thank you very much Red, Greeen and Gold

The CN Tower looked even more majestic with the colours Red and Green that it was lit over the weekend.

Congratulations for taking this initiative to write to CN tower and for making your wish (and ours too) come true.

Karim Maherali, one of the longest serving contributors to this forum has just asked us to move forward and prepare ourselves for the upcoming momentous event. Thank you, Karim and also Rajishkhana. May I be permitted to submit the following poems from our history that may aid us in our preparatory ...

I think ADMIN has been pretty straightforward whenever he has known anything about the Darbar dates. It is a well known fact that locations across Canada were booked a while ago for the Darbar celebrations. The Darbar dates were probably not confirmed from LIF but there should have been an announcem...

For the past few days, and especially today as we continue to await the news of Mawlana Hazar Imam's visit to Canada and other places like Singapore and France, I feel very sad for the Jamat in Pakistan. The Imamat's (and I include our beloved 48th Imam in this) commitment and contribution to that c...

Thank you to the 2 witness accounts of the Didar in Syria. Regarding the discipline factor, some of the individuals who started leaving might very well have been members of the Jamat and not necessarily (all) non-Ismailis. Many of us have seen incidents of certain members of the Jamat not having the...

Admin, Thank you for your excellent all-round effort over the last several years. In my above post, I was specifically referring to theismaili.org, when I alluded to "the web site". It is time for the official community web site to facilitate a bottoms up approach where individuals and Jam...

With so much anticipation about the Syria Didar it is surprising that no reports or pictures of the Salamieh Didar have appeared anywhere including theismaili.org. Isn't it time that the official web site should have on-site reporters who can submit inspiring reports and photos within hours (if not ...

In response to Almas, I am sure arrangements would be made for those with severe disabilities and illnesses to be accomodated in a specia section, even if this means bringing such people in their hospital beds. I believe that this kind of an arrnagment was made in the USA. According to various repor...

With regard to the forthcoming visit to the U.K may I recommend the following to the UK leadership (1) A publication of a comprehensive booklet about the significance of the Didar. This booklet to to include guide to the Quranic verses, Ginans and Qasidas (and translations) which will be recited in ...

First of all heartiest Mubaraki to the UK Jamat and everyone under the UK jurisdication o&shy;n the announcement of Mawlana Hazar Imam's visit in just under 4 weeks. <BR><BR>In response to the official announcement statement issued by the LIF and the Councils, I refer the readers to my earlier p...

I have read with great interest the various reports, testimonials and photos of Mawlana Hazar Imam's Jubilee visits to East Africa and South Asia. I note that the Jamats in various countries were very much part of the festivities in welcoming Mawlana Hazar Imam at airports or at strategic locations ...
