 | | The Bohras - Religion and Spirituality ( http://www.dawoodi-bohras.com/issues/rel_spirit.htm) by | | | The ordinary Bohra is highly conscious of his identity and this is especially demonstrated at religious and traditional occasions by the appearance and attire of the participants. | | | The Dawoodi Bohras are a very closely-knit community which seeks advice from the high priest ( da'i) in both spiritual and temporal aspects. |

| | The Bohras, like other Shi‘i Muslims, were periodically persecuted in South Asia, and many converted to Sunni Islam, the religion of the Muslim rulers of Gujarat and elsewhere. | | | In 1785 the headquarters of the da‘wa organization of the Da‘udi Bohras were transferred to Surat, still a centre of traditional Islamic and Ismaili learning for the Da‘udi Bohras. | | | Early in the sixteenth century the headship of the Musta‘li Ismailis passed to an Indian from Sidhpur, and later the headquarters of this Ismaili community were transferred permanently from Yemen to Ahmadabad, where the da‘i could generally count on the religious tolerance of the Mughal emperors. |

| | About Bohras |
| | The Dawoodi Bohra community traces its spiritual heritage from Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his vasi Amirul Momineen Moulana Ali (AS), son-in-law of the Prophet, and continuing through their successors, the Imams, who functioning first from Madinah, spread over to North Africa and Egypt in succeeding centuries. | | | The Dawoodi Bohras further believe, that so long as the Imam should remain in seclusion, his appointed representative, the Dai al-Mutlaq, conducts on behalf of the Imam his mission (Dawat) and administers and receives from the faithful an oath of allegiance. | | | The Dawoodi Bohras further believe that the Dai al-Mulaq as the representative and the vicegerent of the Imam on earth in seclusion, enjoys and exercises all the powers and authority of the Imam. |

| | Nothing was done, however, about the Nathwani Commission's recommendations and to this day reformist Bohras cannot be married by their priests, cannot have their family members buried in the community's burial grounds and suffer direct and indirect attacks just for questioning the validity of a structure which to them seems an anachronism. | | | This oath of allegiance to a living human being and the concept of a priestly class marks the Bohras as apart from the rest of Islam. | | | These are just some of the facts that give a lie to the orthodox Bohra stand that they object to the bank giving interest and have no other ulterior motives. |

| | Social mobility had dispersed the Bohra community throughout the world and caused the faithful to lose touch with their spiritual touchstone and widespread losses in the matters of orthodoxy. | | | While Bohra roots in commerce may have helped them in self empowerment on socio-political level, the spiritual leadership of Syedna binds them in a compact entity with time-tested credentials in ensuring solidarity. | | | Dai’s role is to serve as a bridge between hidden imam and the faithful. |

| | The Bohra High Priest and his oppressive taxation system |
| | A Bohra has to pay to the high priest even before he is born and continues to pay until after he is dead. | | | This is unique to the Bohras and is not found in any other Muslim community, nor has it anything to do with the teachings of Islam as such. | | | He regularly exhorts the Bohras not to insure themselves or their business as the same is haram (prohibited) in Islam. |

| | Dawoodi Bohras - Anjuman-e-Najmi |
| | The Shia Fatimi Ismaili Taiyebi Dawoodi Bohras are a denomination of Islam with a distinct identity, culture and ethos. | | | In common with all Muslims, we affirm the oneness of Allah, believe that the Prophet Mohammed al-Mustafa (S.A.) was the last prophet in a chain of prophets from Allah and revere the holy Qur'an, as the final revelation of Allah. | | | It is an article of faith for the Bohras, that whilst the Imam chooses to remain in seclusion his mission is headed by his representative called al-Dai al-Mutlaq, meaning "absolute caller to the faith". |

| | MWU!: Comment on Asghar ‘Ali Engineer's Quest for an Islamic Theology of Peace and Religious Pluralism |
| | Bohra, taken as the sole religious paradigm, is not a form of Islam (for many of the reasons you listed, the chief being the primacy of the priesthood - islam theoretically has no priests, at least not in the hereditary supreme leader sense, something I recall mentioned often in the quran. | | | Bohras are also considered as Ismailis, as they follow the "Mustaali(an)" interpretation/lineage/line of the Shia Ismaili Muslims. | | | I think the reason that bohras from the "occasional" group seem to blend in so effectively is that they have effectively separated their muslim faith from bohra orthodoxy. |

| | Bohras |
| | The word Bohra (also spelled Bohara or Vohra) is derived from the Gujarati vohorvu or vyavahar, meaning "to trade." This has sometimes caused Hindus, Jains, and Muslims of trading communities other than those related to the Tayyibi Ismailis to list themselves on census forms as Bohras. | | | Pilgrimages to the shrines of the saints are an important part of the devotional life of Bohras, for the facilitation of which resthouses and assisting organizations have been set up. | | | The Bohras follow the Fatimid school of jurisprudence, which recognizes seven pillars of Islam. |

| | H-Net Review: Rehana Ghadially on Mullahs on the Mainframe: Islam and Modernity Among the Daudi ... |
| | Jonah Blank's book on the Daudi Bohra sect of the Ismaili branch of Shi'a Muslims is a welcome addition to the scarce literature on both the Ismaili sect of Shi'ism as opposed to the Ithna-Ashari or Twelver branch of Shi'ism, and on South Asian Muslims compared to Middle Eastern Muslim communities and societies. | | | The author describes and analyses its critical markers, namely the traditions as embodied in the figure of their spiritual head, da'i-al-mutlaq, and his neo-traditionalist reform program launched in the 1970s which includes elements of cultural revival and a forward movement in the world of technology and Western pedagogy. | | | The pervasive, central authority of the da'i extending in both religious and temporal matters is unique only to the Bohras and the Agha Khanis (a sister Ismaili sect) on the Indian sub-continent. |

| | What the Bohras have done, Blank concludes, is to "break down the false dichotomy between modernity and tradition, to let members of the community revel in both." This brilliant study is both academically rigorous and a welcome introduction to the real success of this Islamic community in the modern world. | | | This is a groundbreaking work for two reasons: it is the first full description of a community never before studied from outside, and it demonstrates that an orthodox Islamic community can also embrace Western ideas and technology by adopting all aspects of modern culture that are not forbidden to it. | | | Combining orthodox Muslim prayer, dress, and practice with secular education, relative gender equality, and Internet use, this community serves as a surprising reminder that the central values of "modernity" are hardly limited to the West. |

| | The Bohras uphold orthodox Muslim practices as faithfully as any Wahhabi pietist could wish: in all matters of prayer, dress, and even avoidance of financial interest, they are highly conservative. | | | As the first outsider to gain entry to the Daudi Bohra community (a unique Shia denomination numbering one million, concentrated in South Asia but spread throughout the world), Blank provides a firsthand account of a society that sees no contradiction between Islamic tradition and full-fledged modernity. | | | At the same time, they eagerly adopt any aspects of modern culture not in direct conflict with their core beliefs. |
