Krishna was before Buddh Awatar. In the Asal Dua there was a genealogy of the Imams before Hazrat Ali going back to Adam and before Adam too. The Dua while giving the genealogy said "Buddh ma this Shish" which means the Imamat of Buddh was continued in Shish. The genealogy from Shish is t...

There is no million dollars question and I have already refuted your Hoodboy's allegations as not accurately depicting what the Imam said. Y ou know 7 languages but can not understand plain English? I also know 7 languages so what? Where I come from, many people know many languages. You don't even ...

Now refering to quote ' Ali rupe Hari aaviya ' means Ali came in shape or appearance of Hari. During his first visit after partition MSMS said to Waras Hud bhai first president of Ismailia Association Pakistan " Waras Ginan mey Hari ko Ali kardo". Past three decades, what ever publication...

TBH I have no access to this book but I have read about this story. It is true that some people are born with special capabilities but, what capabilities have to do with reincarnation? I am not criticizing her spiritual capabilities but in my view NDE is not equivalent to rebirth or reincarnation b...

I gave historical quotes and gave reference. You are mind set. Problem is if references goes in your favor you accept it and be happy, and if these references goes against your philosophy (and of those who have complaints about me) you start criticizing. There are more historical facts coming out ab...

The bedouins say, "We have believed." Say, "You have not [yet] believed; but say [instead], 'We have submitted,' for faith has not yet entered your hearts. And if you obey Allah and His Messenger, He will not deprive you from your deeds of anything. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merc...

A quote from Wikipedia article: On 8 September 1958, Pakistan purchased the Gwadar enclave from Oman for 5.5 billion Rupees (equivalent to US$1.1 billion). The Agreement had two important clauses: (1) All Balochistan would form a military recruitment source for Oman; as a result, Balochis constitute...

In this paragraph which you quoted from Memoirs, there is no mention of Prophets before Adam. What about Sri Ram and Sri Krishna? Was philosophy of lakh chourasi included in IIS teachings? Was there any special course on this subject like Quran or history? The ITREB guidance was for missionaries in...

I have not read the book but have read an article about her. The question is about recalling past. The quotation from Memoirs is not addressing question about past lives but is about immense love with who is above all else. Did Hafiz, Rumi, or Christ mentioned about their previous life stories? I s...

Even if you don't accept reincarnation, what is the entity that survives death and is reborn in the higher spheres as per MSMS? The NDE ( near death experiences) can not be equated with reincarnation. In NDE case a person is survived and revived in same body still soul staying in body and not left....

You quoted fro Memoirs," all Islamic schools of thought accept it is as fundamental principle that for CENTURIES for thousands of years before advent of Muhammad......". Please pay attention to word CENTURIES also, what do you mean by that...hundred thousands? I gave reference of Talmud a...

According yo Talmud and Ahadith, story of Adam is around 6000 years old. Islam started with Adam. Being Muslims Ismailis believe in all Prophets from Adam to Muhammad. That is what Imam mentioned about thousands of years of history.. Usually in a conversation, when one says thousands of years, it m...

Admin, I wanted to let you know that i've stopped reading and wanting to participate in a lot of these discussions because it seems that there are individuals who are intent on forcefully hammering their understanding (or lack thereof) of the faith and not willing to allow for multiple interpretati...

The term BIRTH can not be used for soul. Soul do not take birth. It is a creation of God and exists from primordial time. The soul is ordered by God to adopt a body according to His will. When soul leaves body after prescribed time can not come back on its own for fulfillment of left over desires. ...

[That particular farman has nothing to do with reincarnation or Dus Avtars. OK do you have Farmans which indicate that the Farman on Das Avtars is no more valid? On the contrary MHI has provided a Hidayat that our faith is based upon thousands of years of history. Where are the thousands of years h...

There is a book in Ismaili Tariqa having status of a Pir. Did Imam delegated some of his authority as a Pir to this book. Is this book walking talking entity? A book can serve as a vehicle of guidance just as a person. At that time how many converted knew Persian in subcontinent to get guidance fro...

It is wrong to say that Imamat and Piratan have merged now. This is inaccurate. Many Imams in the Past (at least a dozen times) were also Pir at the same time. I suggest you learn about the genealogy of the Pir so you can see where you have missed the boat. http://www.ismaili.net/histoire/chart7.ht...

As a rule of thumb or a general rule, when one Prophet is Avtar means his fellow brother Prophets should be Avtars. In a Hadith (some where I read) Prophhet Muhammad said, " we the Prophets of Allah are like brothers. We have the same mission". Let us take your opinion 'all Prophets are n...

[quote="Admin"] Many Farmans are made in such a way as a learned person would notice the Farman by the Imam and the Explanation by the PIr. Reply: What a strange explanation," Only learned persons would notice the Farman is made by Imam and explained by Pir". What about unlearned...
