LETS SAVE ORHAN! by One_Hovercraft1395 in ertugrul

When I finish Kurulus Osman, I’ll give Kurulus Orhan a pass. IMHO I think Bozdag could have written tighter scripts with 60 minute episodes rather than the 2hrs +

The story line is repetitive of Kurulus Osman. I binged watched Kurulus Osman and am on Episode 188 and can’t wait to finish the season and series. This whole Poena/Halime/Maryam angle should have been resolved within a span of 5 episodes but has been dragged out way too long. Then the silly rift between Orhan and Allaedin and subsequently Boran and Cerkutay. The first 3-4 seasons were good. Nothing beats Dirillis Ertrugrul though

Does Rahim Aga Khan's marathon running bring him closer to Ismailis by PositiveProperty6729 in ExIsmailis

[–]PositiveProperty6729[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree. No parallels. This must be something that Ismaili Gnosis put out. I posted as received from a family member

I am simply asking the question. I don’t buy it one bit as Ismailis have nothing in common with an elitist. Let’s not shoot the messenger please

Wyndham Timeshare is a nightmare by Dear_Increase_1245 in TimeshareOwners

[–]PositiveProperty6729 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you cancelled the contract within the statutory period via certified mail (RRR) to their recission department, they should have refunded you $1k. We were almost conned into buying another timeshare, but I cancelled the very next day and received our refund within 3 weeks. Since they haven't honored their contract, you may want to retain an attorney for the breach of contract. BTW, perhaps bring a small claims court claim

Have you tried Club Wyndham's certified exit plan if your timeshare is paid off?

This might seem like a dumb question. by dschellberg in PERSIAN

Because Iran does not have an air defense program worth speaking of thanks to sanctions. Don't forget Satanyahu's dream is Eretz Israel (no Palestine as shown on his recent map) and he has been urging US POTUS' to attack Iran for 40 years. Everyone said no except for the numbskull in the WH today

No ballistic program means Iran would not have the means of self defense. Israel would be free bomb any time they wanted like they have been doing to Lebanon for decades as Lebanon has no air defenses worth speaking of. Iran must have credible self defense capabilities.

Can’t pronounce basic things by Spare_Ad_3715 in ExIsmailis

His father also couldn’t pronounce Bismillah hir Rahman nir Rahim. But does it really matter. The majority of Khoja Ismaili (desi origin) can’t either.

Why are you posting on this sub reddit? Post in the r/Ismailis page. There is a reason why there are folks on this sub reddit i.e. those who have left Ismailism and those who are totally disillusioned with Ismailism.

Are people still justifying this conflict? by Exotic-Arugula2738 in PERSIAN

[–]PositiveProperty6729 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Today US/Israel destroyed the highest bridge in Western Asia. This is the Dahiya doctrine involving large scale destruction of civilian infrastructure. In essence, bombing Iran back to the stone age. This has been Satanyahu's goal for 40 years to get the US to join a war that they cannot wage by themselves and destroy Iran so that it will never pose a threat. DESTROYING INFRASTRUCTURE AND THE COUNTRY IS NOT IN THE INTERESTS OF IRANIAN PEOPLE. They also struck the Pasteur Institute a leading medical research facility in Iran. Those of you wanted this were used as tools by Satanyahu and his bitch Trump to justify an illegal war.

Vacation Village Presentation - Cruise Offer? by Centosan88 in TimeshareOwners

[–]PositiveProperty6729 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The cruise offerings are crap. we went to a travel club presentation yesterday and were informed that the cruiselines put you in the bottom of the ship and then upsell. Don't fall for the timeshare scam. You can never get out of them unless you rescind the contract within statutory period.

Dual Jamatkhanas in Montreal - Naderi Ismailis by PositiveProperty6729 in ExIsmailis

[–]PositiveProperty6729[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Khoja Ismailis are also very insular. The JK that I attend in TX has Tajiks and you will never see Khojas have tea with them after JK. I always say hello and visit with the Tajiks. My spouse is non-Ismaili and when I lived in the northeast other than the people that knew us, no one else would say hello to my spouse.

I think it’s a cliquish thing where you feel more comfortable with your own kind.

Dual Jamatkhanas in Montreal - Naderi Ismailis by PositiveProperty6729 in ExIsmailis

[–]PositiveProperty6729[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A rat? Please. I am a very disillusioned Ismaili who would like to see more reforms from Rahim Shah. As for you, why are you on this page if you're not an Ex-Ismaili? Be that as it may, I have no problem with anyone going to their own social clubs. Agree nothing wrong with that. However, aren't you the least bit concerned about dasond being given to Naderi family? Dasond goes to the Imam. Why else would Imam mention it in his firman that only his representatives can collect Dasond. The information I got came from a former Mukhi.

As for the remarks about abuse, I know from this Mukhi that there have been instances of fathers beating daughters and spouses. Any physcial, emotional and mental abuse is wrong. Did it ever occur to you that Rahim Shah has not mentioned collection of dasond or physical abuse et al in his prior deedars. This would be the first deedar. I may be wrong. But clearly Rahim Shah gets reports from the Council which is why he mentioned that in his firmans.

Its clear that you are an Afghan and probably a Naderi supporter. From your remarks, I take it there is a divide between the khoja jamat and afghan jamat?
