This Persian calligraphy invokes prayers that are dedicated to our
Prophet Muhammed and Hazrat Ali. I think it reads: "O Allah Give your blessings
to our Prophet Muhammed and his great disciple Ali. (The Salwaat) Purify
our hearts and souls, bless us all, and group us with your virtuous children"

Dear Nina:THE NEW GENERATION: As the baby boom sinks into the middle-age
spread, the generatiomn so accustomed to throwing its weight around is
losing some of its clout. It's been given for four decades that the demographic
bulge of the post-war surge in birth rates would shape the face of North
American society. From rock music and blue jeans of our youth to the minivans
of maturity, they defined our culture. By virtue of their sheer numbers,
they swept aside the traditions of their parents' generations as they careened
through free-love and mindless liberalism. As they raised the families
of their own, they mandated what their parents could not- we imposed our
values, our tastes,our fashions on our children. Boomers dictated the movies
that would be watched, the books that would be read, the clothes that would
be worn. Our status symbols became, by default, the status quo. What they
didn't endorse was relegated to the fringes. Economic success meant catering
to boomers' tastes--entire industries rose and fell on our collective whims.

Dear Nina:TODAY WE ARE CELEBRATING GHADIRE KHUM:The Day when Prophet
of Islam declared Hazarat Ali as "He is Mawla of those whose Mawla I am.Hazarat
Ali, the son-in-law of the Prophet Muhammad was our first Imam and greatest
hero of Islam.Besides being a great warrior,he was also a great saint,
dedicated himself to the service of Islam,during the life time of the Prophet
and his own life time. He was also a great orator.His speeches and sermons
rank high in importance.The collection of these,known as "Nehjul Balagha"
was complied by the great scholar WSayyid Razi.The first collection was
the work of Abu Usman Umar bin Bahar Alijahiz Albasri who died in A.H.255.It
is called "Mait-i-Kalima".The second collection known as "Nasrul Loali"by
Sayyid Imam Ziauddin. The third known as "Ghurarul Hikam wa Darrarul Kilam"
by Abdul Wahid.This contains several thousand maxims.

Dear Nina: SINGING GINAN IN GLORY OF ALLAH AND IMAM: I once had to
stay in a strange town for few days and so in the evening I went to Jamatkahana.
The congragation was very small; but what astounded me was the beauty of
singing of Ginans. Then I made friend of one who had sung so melodiously
and asked him if he ever felt disheartened singing to such small congragation.
He replied, "No. You see, we sing to the glory of Allah and Imam, and not
to congragation". Perhaps this is why that few singers sang so beautifully.
Now wouldn't our lives be more beautiful, too, if whatever we do is always
done for the love of Allah and Imam.Say to renew friendship or do a voluntary
work.

Dear Nina:THE EXOTERIC EXPERIENCE OF NAVROZ ***********************
Sayyid Shamsi relates his quest for the Master which led to his meeting
with Hazrat Imam Shah Khalilullah (a.s.) and the fulfillment of his intense
yearning in stanzas one, (two three and seven-LACK OF SPACE) which will
be explained in this section: "Eji Navroz na din sohamna, Shah Ali Qayam
shikaar ramwa vann gaya, Sevak na mann thaya oodassi, Praan Ali charne
rahiya...............(1) On a beautifuI day of Navroz, Imam-e-Zaman had
gone to the woods to hunt. His murid became sad (for missing his Master)
as his soul was longing to be at the feet of the Imam (an expression of
respect and obedience for the Imam.) Navroz is a Persian word meaning 'new
year's day '(twenty-first March).This is the first day of spring, hence
the day is beautiful (sohamna). `Shah Ali Qayam refers to Imam-e-Zaman
because Noor-e-Imama is everpresent. Sevak is one who is ready to serve
or obey. In this case a disciple or a murid Praan means inner life or `soul'.

Dear Nina: NAURUZ IS UPON US.We Shias celebrate Nauruz with great pomp.
The tradition started in Iran,as thanks-giving for bounty of Allah.Ismailis
celebrate it in various ways.Besiedes being the beginning of spring, it
is joyous occasion to rededicate ourselves to renewal of life after ardous
journey through love and labor and be thankful for Allah's bountiness.But
March in this country is a fickle month.It promises Spring, but often gives
us a spell of cold and blustery weather. A friend was feeling Winter-weary
and asked his woman friend to fectch him a bottle of sunshine!If only she
could have--now, what a wonderful tonic that would be. So many things come
in tubes and packets these days, yet we are still at the mercy of the elements.
On reflection, I decided that this was not bad thing.Surely we appreciate
Spring for more when it finally arrives, than if it were immediately to
hand. A bottle of sunshine would be delightful, but,perhaps, that we all
really need is a packet of patience!.

Dear Nina: THE NEW TREND IN LOVING YOUR PARENTS:All cultures laud:"Honour
Thy Parents". Even Prophet of Islam said:"Paradise lies at the feet of
your mother".But recently in Canada many Canadian pareents living in poverty
have successfully sued their children for support and they have succeeded.
Apperantly in Canada there is 200 year-old British common law. I understand
there are many such cases before the court.Few parents pay regard to what
their children say.Old-fashioned respect is fast dying down between them

REPORTS: TAJIK PREMIER RECEIVES AGA KHAN'S SON BBC Monitoring Service -
United Kingdom ; 13-Mar-2000 12:00:00 am ; 168 words Text of report by
Tajik radio on 13th March Prime Minister Oqil Oqilov of Tajikistan received
the head of the Aga Khan Foundation, Prince Amin Aga Khan [son of Karim
Aga Khan IV, leader of the world Ismailis], today. During the talks, they
mostly touched upon and exchanged views on issues of mutually beneficial
cooperation with this foundation in Tajikistan. The prime minister said
that the agreements are being implemented which were signed during Prince
Karim Al Husayni's official visit to Tajikistan. Certainly, our listeners
know well that during the official visit of Prince Karim Al Husayni Aga
Khan IV to Tajikistan in 1995, an agreement was signed to open a cultural
centre and an international university [in Tajikistan]. The foundation
allocated money for this purpose. At present, a decision has been taken
to open the cultural centre and the international university for use. Further
cooperation issues were also discussed during the meeting. We recall that
the coordinator of the Aga Khan Fund in Tajikistan and a deputy prime minister,
Qozidavlat Qoimdodov, also had talks with Prince Amin. Source: Tajik Radio

Dear Nina:TEN-YEAR ISMAILI BOY RECITED EID NAMAZ: Today in Calgary,amidst
congragation of more than 500 people at Headquarters Khane,a young ismaili
boy of 10, recited perfect Eid Namaz., It proves how Ismaili Muslims take
their faith seriously. I remember an incident that happened in South Africa,
when our Ismaili Missionary gave a religious talk in Masjid,with audiance
of 2000 Muslims. During question period a man stood up to ask if Ismailis
say their Namaz.After our Missionary explaining how Ismaili Muslims say
their Namaz,asked the questioner wether he says his Namaz regularly and
if so to come up at the stage and say it. He answered back that he did
not know the Namaz. Then the missionary asked an Ismaili boy of 7 years
to say the Namaz(Dua). He said perfectly and Mullah who was present lauded
the community for their religious pursuit.

Dear Nina:PEARLS OF WISDOM:(1) It is a kind of happiness to know to
what extent we may be unhappy.(2)Ever one blames his neighbor what the
world blames in himself.(3)Fortunate people never correct themselves. They
always fancy they are in the right as long as fortune supports their ill
conduct.(4) Good taste springs more from judgement than from intellect.(5)We
should not judge of a man's merit by his good qualities, but by the use
he can make of them(6)When our hatred is too keen, it places us beneath
those who hate.(6)Why this lifting of the brow in depreciation of the present--this
pathos in reference to the past?

Dear Nina: CHILDREN'S RULES FOR ADULTS: When a third grade student
in a religious education class complained that there were so many rules
for children but none for grown-ups, the teacher reponded by asking the
classs to write down their own rules for adults. Accordingly most pupils
were concerned about gooliness, peace, fairness, honesty, and truthfulness.
ONE CHILD'S list read:(1), Do not be unfair. (2) Do not scold so much.(3)Give
us time(4)Do not always disturb us.(5)Do not laugh at us.(6) Do not force
us.(7)Admit that we are right once in a while.(8) Do not make your own
rules.(9)Get along with one another(10) Go to Jamatkhana yourselves, and
do not just send children.

Dear Nina: GLOOMY BABY BOOMERS: Did you notice this term:Baby Boomers,
is loosely used world over. Every aspect of life seems geared to cater
for their life style."Baby Boomers" is the term coined to describe people
born between the end of the the second world war and the beginning of the
1960s. During that period many countries on the winning side of the war
reported a marked population increase. A survey showed that baby boomers,
once carefree and optimistic about the future, now "feel insecure about
themselves and their children, and regard their old age with something
like dread." Why the gloom? "They are now confronted with a world which
they feel has gone too far in terms of individualism, materialism and lack
of self-control and good manners.

Dear Nina: HUMAN FREEDOM AND DIGNITY:FROM DIFFERENT SOURCES: We are
all born with an inherent need and desire for dignity and freedom..Kofi
Annan,UN Secretary-general, echoed feelings that are universal when he
asked:" Who can deny that we all seek lives free of fear, torture and discrimination?
When have you heard a free voice demand an end to freedom? When have you
heard a slave argue for slavery?" Dismissing the notion that some are born
to be slaves, first-century Roman philosopher Seneca, in his letters to
"Lucillius" wrote:"Please reflect that the man you call your slave was
born of the same seed, has the same good sky above him, breathes as you
do, lives as you do, dies as you do. HAZART ALI, revered as the first Imam
and as fourth caliph after Muhammad, said that all men are "equals in creation."
S'ADI, a thirteenth century Persian poet declared:"The children of Adam
are limbs of one another and their creation come from one substance. When
the world gives pain to one member, the other members find no rest."

Part I: Tawassul - Supplicating Allah through an Intermediary. The
Ahle-e-Muhammad (Panjtan Pak or Ahle Bayt), from the time of the Prophet
to this day, have been the means of approach in our prayers and invocations
of Allah. We regard them only as very pious people and the nearest ones
to Allah. Therefore, we consider them a means of our approach to Allah.
There is no disagreement among scholars(sunni & shias) that supplicating
Allah through an intermediary is, in principle, legally valid; the discussion
of it's details merely concerns derived rulings that involve inter-school
differences, unrelated to questions of belief or unbelief, monotheism or
associating partners with Allah (shirk). ALL Muslims agreed on this point
from the time of the Prophet (pbuh&hf) up to the present day, except
Wahabis, who contradict all Muslims with their new creed - condemned as
kufr by traditional Islam, yet, they (the Wahabis/Najdis/Salafis)) are
leaders of today’s Sunni Islam. If, tawassul is "shirk" then from from
the evidence available it seems that The Prophet (pbuh&hf) taught muslims
to commit "shirk" and, so did the Sunni Khalifa Uthman ibn Affan and, so
on.
Abdul Malick <Abdulmalick123@hotmail.com>
Toronto, Ontario, Canada - Saturday, March 11, 2000 at 10:23:38 (CST)
Part II: The Holy Quran supports intermediary for approaching toward
Allah where it states: "O' you who believe! Be mindful (of your duties)
to Allah, and seek the means of approaching toward Him." (Quran 5:35) When
we make Tawassul, it means that we seek the Mercy of Allah by resorting
to a connection who was more obedient toward Allah and, as a result, Allah
answers his/her prayers faster than us. "Who can intercede with Him except
the cases that He permits?" (Quran 2:255). "They (i.e., prophets and Imams)
do not say anything until He orders, and they act (in all things) by His
command. He knows what is before them and what is behind them and they
(i.e., those saints) offer no intercession except for anyone whom Allah
accepts, and they…….. are in awe and reverence of His (glory)." (Quran
21:27-28) The Shia Isna Asharis publications: Zadu'l-Ma'ad by Allama Majlisi
and Hidayatu'z-Za'irin by Sheikh Abbas Qummi - read the Du'a-e-Tawassul
(invocation of seeking nearness), and you’ll find that the Prophet's family
(Ahle Bayt) was part of the invocation. Everywhere they were mentioned
as means of approach to Allah. Finally, to recite an excerpt from our D’ua:
O Allah, forgive us our sins, and give us our bread, and have mercy upon
us, in the name of Thy closest Messengers and Thy holy Imams, and in the
name of our Lord and our Imam, Shah Karim al-Hussayni. Ameen!

Dear Nina:SHARP BRAINS BELONG TO THOSE OVER 60: If you meet these people
from different stations of life, you will be amazed at the zest of life
they have.Do we realise that many sharp brains in our country belong to
artists, writers,actors, and others who are over 60? It makes us to conclude
that all happy elderly people whether active, creative or "shut in", still
have a goal, a dream, amd an ambition in life, and are still working in
their own way to make it come true and make their wise contributions to
community and nations. It is wise, whatever our age, to know what we want
from life and where we are going- then to strive for it with all our might.Keep
counting Mawla's blessings.

Dear Nina: AN ARAB LADY OF OLDEN DAYS: Personal beauty,noble descent,
bright intelligence,cultivated taste and forceful character: these were
the virtues prized most by Arab ladies of olden days. And an embodiment
of these qualities was Ayesha, daughter of Talha and grand-daughter of
the Caliph Abu Bakr. Ayesha was the prettiest and proudest woman of her
time. She would never use the veil. Her husband Musab protested. She replied,"
On me Allah has set the seal of beauty and I rejoice when my beauty is
seen and the mercy of Allah is therein acknowledged." Never shall I cover
my face, for no flaw or fault finds a place in Allah's work. Musab went
to war. Ayesha anxiously awaited his arrival. When he returned, Ayesha
went out of her house to welcome him, and congratulating him, busied herself
in wiping the dust of his face and coat-of-mail. Musab said, "I was afraid
lest the smell of the rusty iron coat-of-mail and of the weapons be offensive
to you." Ayesha replied, " By Allah, this smell is sweeter and lovelier
to me than that of the musk."

Dear Nina:MOTHER'S WORTH:(a mother can look after nine children; but
nine children cannot look after one mother!): If you were to add up the
salaries for all the jobs that a mother performs throughout the year, how
much would her services be worth? According to a report in The Washington
Post, she would receive $508,700 a year! This figure is based on a study
of median salaries for occupation that mothers typically perform. These
are some of the 17 occupations included in the report, along with their
average annual salary: Child-care worker,$13,000; bus driver,$32,000; Psychologist,

Part II (Pls read Part I first): The Prophet said of Hazrat Ali (pbut&tf),
"This is my Brother, Successor, and Caliph over you," and once, "I am the
best of the prophets, while Ali is the best of the successors of the prophets
and the best man whom I leave behind (after my demise)." He also said,
"Ali is with the truth and the truth is with him," and "Ali is with the
Qur'an and the [knowledge of the] Qur'an is with him," and "I fought for
the sake of the revelation of the Qur'an while Ali will fight for [safeguarding]
its interpretation, and he is the one who will explain to my nation whatever
they differ about after me," and "Nobody pays my dues except Ali, and he
is the wali of every believer after me," and "Ali to me is like Aaron was
to Moses," and "Ali is of me and I am of him, and he is the gate of my
knowledge."[96]

Part I: All Praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds, for having
guided those whom He has chosen from His servants. If the Holy Qur'an,
which contains no contradictions, and which no falsehood can approach from
before it or from behind, needs someone to explain it, the Sunnah is in
a greater need than the Holy Qur'an for someone to explain it due to the
abundance of its contradictions which resulted from all the insinuations
and lies that crept into it. Such a need is quite natural, even a rational
necessity, that each Messenger should look after the Message with which
he is sent, so he appoints someone to succeed him in doing so. Such an
appointment of a successor and care-taker is done only through divine revelation
so that the Message may not die when he dies; it is for this reason that
each and every prophet had a successor. It is to meet such a pressing need
that the Messenger of Allah appointed his vizier and successor over his
nation to be Ali ibn Abu Talib whom he raised since his childhood to be
adorned with the conduct of prophethood. Continued in Part II….

The Ismaili community is one COOL Muslim community. I wish I was born
Ismaili. I started an email list that some of you might be interested in:
Desirelationships is a mailing-list for South Asians who are involved in,
or who desire to be involved in, inter-religious, inter-racial, inter-class,
inter-caste and inter-national relationships. It's open to those that are
seeking, dating and as well as those who are married. Non-South Asians
who are dating or married to South Asians are also welcome. The purpose
of the list is to support those that are involved in relationships that
are taboo (e.g. hindu-muslim marriage). Those of us that are involved in
such relationships often are faced with the challenge of breaking the news
to our parents and receiving their support. This mailing list is a space
where we can discuss our difficulties, support each other and find creative
solutions to the challenge of breaking down barriers that cause heartbreak.
To subscribe, send an email to desirelationships-subscribe@onelist.com.

Dear Nina:MEASURE OF SUCCESS IS NOT IN HOW MUCH YOU HAVE:BUT HOW MUCH
YOU CAN GIVE: Money,sympthy,love,friendship,happiness and fellow-feelings:
ONE of the many peoples of Papua New Guinea are the Trobriand Islanders.
Their group of islands is small, lying about a hundred miles south-east
of New Guinea, but their yardstick for measuring wealth,success and social
standing is admirable. They measure wealth and success not by how much
they have, but by how much they are able to give away to others. I understand
that visitors to the Trobriand Islands describe them as "Paradise" and
I am not surprised, when the spirit of giving is so prevalent. And as the
poet H.W.Longfellow once commented: "Give what you have. To someone it
may be better than you dare to think."

It amazes me that the claim of relevance of Ashtar Command to George
Van Tassel's transmissions from Ashtar. The original, authentic Ashtar
(through Van Tassel) was an authority, rather than one to ramble on of
metaphysical philosophy. The idea of love is one to be recognized, but
there is much more requirment for knowledge. The focus of Ashtar Command
is narrow minded, and only presents persons to be blank, or brainwashed.
Spiritaulity & Science are one, I do not see them working together
in this organization.

Dear Nina:PESSIMISM AND OPTIMISM: Despite technological progress, there
are areas of life where many a step, frustrations and disappointments dominate
our lives. Although with our religious attitude we can philosophise ills
of life; but in reality we have to face the situation.I remember a story
of two frongs.One was PESSIMIST and the othetr OPTIMIST. They fell in a
big bowl of cream. The Pessimist dialogued with himself and finally reached
to a conclusion that there was no escape from this bowl of cream. He didn't
make any efforts or even tried to get out.Finally he sank into it. But
the OPTIMIST didn't give up hope. He tied the ways of getting out. In this
process he kept on whirling around the cream. Finally the cream turned
into butter.He got on it and jumped out.
