I Shut my Facebook Account ,, Targeted Shia Harassment

27 May 2018


As a Shia I am targeted even  by  Sufis

Sufism that  I promoted vigorously as a Malang ..


I have renounced my Malang status and Khilafatnama 

All because of a rogue Shia hater malang called Roushan Ali .

I have decided to give up Makanpur and my Khilafatnama

I have decided never to got to Makanpur at all I have decided to be what I am a a Shia born Muslim as one of the Malangs has been very insulting writing adverse remarks about my Shia faith on my Facebook post.

I spoke to Syed Masoom Ali Baba and Syed Rafiq Ali Malang that I do not want to be part of a Malang culture that insults other cultures I sent a message to Syed Zafar Mujeeb Madari his family are the custodians of Makanpur Dargah and the rogue abusive insulting Malang Roshan Ali belongs to their Order ,,

I have promoted Sufism I have promoted Hinduism as a photographer I dont think I can take this targeted harassment for being a Shia ..

I have already given up Ajmer for Good.

I think I am better of documenting Hinduism and other faiths at least they dont insult me ..I dont shoot or document diverse faiths for money I do it to show India as the only country that preaches Humanity above Religiosity and I am not talking about the fringe as they are not the representing the Hinduism that I shoot ,,

I am deeply hurt ... I did not become a Malang to be abused humiliated even during the Chadiyan the group of Madaris I walked with openly insulted me for being a Shia ..

And when I came to Ajmer or Makanpur I did not come as a Shia but as a person promoting the Sweetness of Sufism..


I have shut my Facebook Account tonight

The Malang shot by ace portrait artist Laurent Salesse

Laurent Salesse 
was fascinated 
with my Sufi 
personna
my turban 
my rings 
my pendants
that added to 
the intriguing 
nature of my 
Malang dress 
but he rebuked 
me for having 
cut of my long 
hair my flowing 
tress ..
Laurent shoots 
without stress 
every shot of his 
you will surely be
impressed we have 
been friends for 11 
long years ,,
shooting Makanpur 
shooting Khamakhya 
God Bless ..we are 
humble people 
photographers 
million light years 
from photographers 
of the press ,

The truth is lived, not taught.

Life is nothing
But inevitable
Moments of
Sharpness
On the periphery
Of Blur..
We are million
Light years
From What
We were
Walking Talking
Emoting soon
Time will come
To be conveniently
Interred.

Ashes to Ashes
Dust to Dust

Death will
Finally
Quench
Our Thirst

A bubble burst

The last cosmic ride
A corpse in a hearse

The Bawa In Chains

his body held captive
in iron chains , permanently
fused iron manacled immune
to the weight or pain
this way all his life he will
remain an ascetic a monk
completely sane a mystic
through this penance his
moksha attains .. the bawa
in chains travelling from shrine
to shrine from one urus to
the next ..follower of
ali his son hussain ..

a malang a mendicant
mind over matter heart
over brain...

Yeh Toh Khwajah Ka Karam Hai

from every corner they come
to holy saint khwajah garib nawazs
kingdom..a kingdom of humanity
everyone is welcome..the chadars
sandal the drums dancing damsels
painted faces ,the trinkets ..as kids
frolicking ecstatic with joy ..music
rhythm ..the beggars  lame blind
deformed cripple lepers ..invoking
the holy saints sanctum..
