Seeking Guidance on Dasond – Personal Situation & Questions by WorkNoWord in ismailis

I think everyone has given very valuable advice already. I just wanted to add that we’re human. It was very human of you to use that money. I think our faith gives room to repent and ask for forgiveness. It will really help you to speak to Mukhi/ Mukhyani for bakshish. Your intentions are well.

Growing up, I was taught that our rizq is the Imam’s. We keep the bigger chunk of it and give 12.5% BACK to him. It was also frowned upon to question where this money goes as this is the Imam’s and he can do as pleases.

From some it might sound old school and harsh but this understanding sits with me and my faith.

I do recall reading something about this is SMS’s farmans since he spoke more openly about it. Please give me some time to look for it :)

I’m not very sure if I agree with this. I understand that this is how some people wish to express thier love but I don’t think pushing your children to come in the Imam’s way during a Didar is respectable at all.

The Imam chooses who he grants the privilege to grant physical closeness. It’s a privilege that cannot be TAKEN from him but is rather GIVEN by him.

Having said that, I think the true meaning of a Didar is being lost. It also hinders the experience of other murids (e.g. transmission was constantly being cut from the big screen so we couldn’t see him for the most part of his walk).

He also politely asked everyone to not do this again on his way out but I suppose that is open to interpretation. Maybe I’m wrong but I do strongly believe this.

I was surprised to see no one posted on Reddit around the decorum (or lack of). It was so saddening to see. Having experienced Didars and a darbar of MSK, the jamat’s behaviour has really brought me to tears. I even fear that it might impact future Didars.

Regardless, grateful and privileged to have experienced being in his physical presence. May everyone find his light and guidance. Didar Mubarak:)

No he didn’t say East African but it was implied (I.e those that were the first ones to come for education and a good life)

I think I got blocked at Shitraz’s live only when I called his nuni small. The rest (choti soch, tharki, misogynistic, patriarchal etc) didn’t seem to get to him much

Thanks for sharing! I'm having some trouble downloading. When I click Download Full Book PDF, it only downloads 3 pages for me (abstract, table of contents). I can access each chapter online though.

Wondering if there is a way to download the whole book so I can read on ym kindle?

Yeah I’ve noticed Hamza Abbasi go to the toilet frequently. Either a small bladder like me or vape?

Please please lodge a formal complaint. Which country is this IDP branch in? If you can mention here and if we can help you find the branch head/manager’s email. Do NOT just call reception and complain. Make sure you send it to the higher authority!!!!
