  • Statement on Ashara
    August 17 2020 DAWOODI BOHRAS TO OBSERVE ASHARA MUBARAKA AT HOME IN 2020 About Ashara Mubaraka ● At the beginning of the Islamic year during the month of Muharram, the Dawoodi Bohra community - like millions of Muslims around the world - commemorates the martyrdom of SAW ​ Imam Husain ibn Ali, the grandson of Prophet Mohammed .​ ​ ​ ● For the Dawoodi Bohra community, this ten-day period, known as Ashara Mubaraka, is a ​ time of spiritual reflection and educational growth. Thousands of Dawoodi Bohras across the world travel to the city chosen for the central gathering by their leader, His Holiness Dr. Syedna Mufaddal Saifuddin to listen to his sermons. Those that do not ​ ​ ​ attend in person join their local congregations in which sermons are delivered by persons appointed by His Holiness. ● Starting on the 2nd day of the month of Muharram and delivered over nine days, the sermons explore themes of justice, sacrifice, brotherhood, forgiveness, kindness and piety - all qualities that manifest themselves in the tragedy that befell Imam Husain and his companions in Karbala, Iraq, which ultimately led to his martyrdom. ● This year, the Ashara Mubaraka sermons will take place between 19 and 28 August. ● Members close shops and businesses while professionals and students take leave during this nine-day period in order to participate fully and observe the sanctity of the occasion. Online Sermons due to COVID-19 ● In keeping with the government guidelines and instructions on social distancing due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this year, Dawoodi Bohra communities all over the world will instead observe Ashara Mubaraka at home with their families by following prayers and sermons online, just as they have done during Ramadan and other recent religious occasions.

Adams, Ph.D. WPI Project Advisor ABSTRACT The goal of this IQP is to inform the public about stem cell research and its potential to save lives, as well as provide some insight on the underlying ethical and legal issues involved with this controversial technology. By educating the public and dismissing many common misconceptions, this project enables the public to make more informed conclusions. To accomplish this task, the types and sources of the various stem cells were researched, as well as their current and potential uses to improve and save lives. The religious viewpoints of the world’s five major religions were provided as a reference for the ethical issues involved, and lastly the legalities of the use of stem cells use were researched. Throughout the project, many misconceptions were clarified with evidence to back up each point. Based on the research performed in this project, it is believed that stem cells offer great promise, and will play a major role in the future of medical treatment and research. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS Signature Page …………………………………………..…………………………….. 1 Abstract ………………………………………..………………………………………. 2 Table of Contents ………………………………..…………………………………….. 3 Project Objective ………………………………..………...…………………………… 4 Chapter-1: Stem Cell Types and Sources …………..………………………………… 5 Chapter-2: Stem Cell Applications ..…………..…………….……………………….. 22 Chapter-3: Stem Cell Ethics ………………………..………………………………… 32 Chapter-4: Stem Cell Legalities …………………..………….……………………….

  • Muslim Women and the Challenge of Religion in Contemporary Mumbai 323 Muslim Women and the Challenge of Religion in Contemporary Mumbai
    Muslim Women and the Challenge of Religion in Contemporary Mumbai 323 Muslim Women and the Challenge of Religion in Contemporary Mumbai QUDSIYA CONTRACTOR Religious freedom for Muslims in general, and the rights of Muslim women in particular, has been a matter of serious contention in post-colonial India. Although the right to religious freedom is enshrined in the Constitution, and India is signatory to several international conventions, it continues to be highly contested not just in the courts of law, but also in everyday life. The rights of women to equality of religious practice seems to throw up greater political challenges since the guardians of most religions are men, while religion itself is seen by many feminists as another institution that constitutes patriarchal power, to which Islam is no exception. Religious personal laws, for instance, have posed a major challenge to the career of secularism and one such debate has been the role of religious orthodoxy on the question of Muslim women’s autonomy in marital and family life. The Shah Bano case (1985–86) highlighted how the interests of women are particularly vulnerable to exploitation by an alliance of religious and secular interests (Pathak and Rajan 1989). Muslim women’s activism in India has been trying to challenge patriarchal interpretations of the Quran, calling for broader and more inclusive interpretations of women’s social and religious identity a longer version was within Islam; a perspective that has influenced change in other Published in The Economic and Political Weekly vol parts of the world (Mernissi 1991). Patriarchal interpretations of 52, issue no.
