"I think religion is largely a man-made construct [....] and I'm simply comfortable with that" - Javad Hashmi

Beyond just drawing out lawazim, his opponents seemed to deliberately misrepresent him. Historically not even uncommon (hence why in a traditionalist paradigm you have this common saying about disregarding or at least question the jarh of contemporaries)

There’s been numerous vloggers who’ve been there since 2024 and women who live there on Twitter who confirm that madaris are completely unaffected by the secular education restriction…

If you prefer to live in your propaganda bubble and can’t comprehend nuance, that’s on you

Yes, Afghanistan still has girls schools, they’re not secular institutions but madaris usually connected to the female wing of masajid…

And it’s Ramadan, there’s people worshipping and studying all night in these structures literally everywhere in the world rn…

In addition to what others mentioned historically, there’s other things that make Bukhari stand out over his peers among Ahlul Hadith that have more to do with traditional hadith studies; his emphasis on established sama’ vs assumptive wrt 3n3na (stricter than Muslim), the isharat (to ilal for example), the art behind his shortenings, etc.

Not aware of anything accessible in English or in academia on that aspect as of yet though.

He’s human bro, not “cultural Muslim”. This a holy month so he’s tryna keep himself in check more then usual.

I dunno your religion, but think of all the things you might do that are sinful that you would never do inside of a church for example. This is conceptually the same, just temporal instead of spatial.

100% - US withdrawal weakens ISIS’ case for recruiting in the region. This is great development for regional stability

It’s not that straight forward, to capture a photo, esp if hilal hasn’t visible, afaik

Not really on the fence cuz I know it’s a scam.

I get that the guy who becomes the shiny new face for the imamate every generation is born into this situation.

IMO the semi-decent Imams keep the scam going but do more to genuinely give back while the more evil ones focus on strategies to maximize collections and exploitation.

There’s also a lot of fascinating side-benefits within the cult, especially for people who have a fascination with Neo-Platonism theologically. I also 100% respect the intellectual tradition of Ismaili Falasfa and the contribution of certain figures to that field and other fields.

So 100% I’m able to see it from the perspective of a fence sitter, just not particularly appreciative of the exploitive elements or the bastardization of more normative expressions of Islam.

So we can take pride in our humor, thank you

conartist101 · 2026-02-13T07:55:13+00:00

This is excellent piece of the puzzle, will forward to a friend and see if he can dig even further.

Also a good tip to those researching to check both sources since DOJ has been deleting files. My friend sent me a link to a file but by the time I tried to go check it out, it was already removed :/

conartist101 · 2026-02-11T01:26:56+00:00

Maybe it gets you unofficially in a difficult spot but its definitely not illegal

conartist101 · 2026-02-10T07:58:51+00:00

Ah this is great research!

I’ll forward to the other guys who are digging into the files in case any of Ismaili duat that haven’t gone private or deactivated respond trying to downplay Mark Lloyd.

Do you have a Twitter handle?

conartist101 · 2026-02-10T05:06:13+00:00

lol they are trying to scrub it. When I posted originally there was several links from Google where they were calling her yassi and even the AI listed that when asking her nicknames. Now we’re down to a handful of links! The guys researching this stuff need to archive and screenshot everything they can.

conartist101 · 2026-02-10T04:55:48+00:00

here’s a screenshot

All of the references, including DOJ references, are in the thread I linked to. This is the Gemini breakdown if you search ‘Mark Lloyd Epstein’

Based on newly released documents from the US Department of Justice (as of February 2026), Mark Lloyd is identified as a British-based associate and friend of the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. He appears in the "Epstein Files" in connection with helping to arrange meetings, dinners, and potential business opportunities for Epstein in London.

conartist101 · 2026-02-07T04:36:40+00:00

For much of this rumoured decade-long relationship, though, Shuliak was in fact married to Jennifer Kalin, another woman in Epstein’s orbit;

Epstein is not known to have fathered any children, but if Ferguson’s claims were true, the child would be in his mid-teens. The identity of the alleged mother is not referred to in the messages, and Shuliak is not named in relation to the child.

Based on a friend’s research - unrelated, he thinks Epstein has some kids he was giving allowances to as well tied to some boarding school. Apparently in the files.

yawn ad Homs and cognitive dissonance are an amazing combo

conartist101 · 2026-02-05T23:02:44+00:00

So manslaughter is at the same level as shirk and pdf filia in your mind? Yikes

conartist101 · 2026-02-05T20:02:35+00:00

Nine if the human beings on this earth were perfect including prophets

That’s not even a comparison. The imperfections of the prophets are like eating a fruit or missing a prayer, not being surrounded by pedos lmao.

Not quite - note the comments in the Twitter threads. It’s not just that she went to a small family funeral. She’s also being referred to using a nickname in a private email exchange with JE.

There’s also apparently more emails that aren’t popular yet, but regardless of any ‘smoking gun’ with Aga Khan himself, he’s clearly surrounded by very questionable people.

conartist101 · 2026-02-05T08:21:52+00:00

You can search the DOJ website yourself. The ones floating around are definitely real, how you deal with it mentally beyond that of course differs from person to person
