FYI

I have the old dua in gujrati and will Inshallah have the old ghatpat dua pretty soon.

You see a desire arises in my heart and it becomes an obsession for him to fulfill. Here I am trying to leave JK in a hurry and I over hear someone talking about the old Dua. I stop for a second and it is someone I know and within a couple of minutes he agrees to get me a copy of it. Thursday he brings it to me.

The secret is to have patience and let Mowla do his work the way he always does, it at the right time.

So once again my Mowla follows through with fulfilling the wishes of his murid.
How do you thank him who never disappoints?
How do you appreciate him who fulfills wishes when all I ever do is keep trying to disappoint him?

How can I become one with him when I am a polar opposite of him?
He is most generous while I cannot see past my own nose.
He loves to give and I cant stop thinking about taking.
He does I do not.
He loves, I pretend to love.
He wants me to become like him but I am lolling in the muck of this world thinking I am having a good old time like a 2 year old.

He is everything and I keep thinking I am something.

When will I realize that I am nothing and he is absolutely everything?

Haji Bibi case

Post by shamsu »

Ya Aly Madad manjee,

The English translation of the old dua is a matter of Public Record as it was found by me in the Haji Bibi case transcripts on the internet spelt as doowa.

Our old dua is a masterpiece just as the new dua is. To understand Imam i.e. to reach marifat all you need to do is contemplate on the meaning of the dua.

Imams Deedar can be obtained by just saying the entire dua with complete understanding and without distraction.

Loose yourself in the dua and see where it takes you as the meanings become more and more clear day by day. I sincerely believe that if an Ismaili can say his Dua with complete concentration everyday Bandagi for him is no problem at all.

The foundation of our Faith of Farmanbardari is Dua and Dasond. If these two are perfect everything else falls into place effortlessly.

Pardon me for expressing my own thoughts here

I will be getting it in gujrati script I think

I hope there was a way to post non english scripts on these forums.

I will see if I can scan it and email it to people though I have never successfully scaned anything yet.

Its like a learning disability when it comes to scaning stuff I suppose. I have never learned to use the numerous scanners I have had through the years.

maybe this will be something that forces me to learn it.

Hey about the translation of the old dua in english i have a small question, but first read this:<BR>Ismailia Mission Conference 1945. <BR><BR>"Then when last in Bombay 8 years ago, many of our people came to me and requested me to add just o&shy;ne word in Dua, and then, they said everything was alright. I said, "What is that o&shy;ne word?" They said, "Instead of 'Ali Allah', say 'Ali-un-walli-Allah'." So I said, "You better drop the whole Dua if you want to alter that word. You are ignorant. It is your ignorance and not that "Ali Allah" is wrong." <BR><BR>Shouldnt the translation be Ali Allah then because at that time, the Imam was stating the old dua.<BR>

Ya Ali Madad,

Thank you so much for posting the translation of the Asal Dua. I was wondering if there was a copy available of the transliteration or gujarati version of this Dua. I would love to read it in its original context. Thanks so much.

The translation posted on this forum is quite different from the one posted on the "Haji Bibi Case" under doowa. Star_Munir where did you source this translation that you have posted from, as it is quite different.


This verse does not exist in the translation that you have provided. Please explain?

"True declaration--God is Holy. Thanks to God. Praise to God. There is no God but God. God is Great. There is no might or power except that of God, the High the Great, the Merciful, the Magnanimous, the Good, the Great Holy Providence (Who is) in the district of Chaldea, in Persia, in human form descended from the seventy-seven Patras (ancestors), and Who is the forty-eighth. Imam (Spiritual Chief) the tenth Naklanki Avtar, our Master, Aga Sultan Mahomed Shah, the Giver."
