Clarification of Confusion w.r.t Mehdavia Community in ongoing Socio Economic Survey by the GoK

Bangalore 12 April 2015: Dear Brothers & Sisters in Faith As salamu alaikum Rahmathullahi wa Barakatahu.  We were getting lots of queries w.r.t to the ongoing socio economic Survey which is been done by the Govt.

We had a quick telemeeting with Mrs. Balkhees Banu, Chairman- Karnataka State Minority Commission & Mr. SYM Masood Faujdar, Chairman, Karnataka Minority Development Corporation  to get a final clarification on this issue.  We also spoke to Wing Commander M Khan and got his version too.

After taking inputs from all the above and referring to the survey documents we arrived at the following final codes which needs to be entered in the survey forms.

Here are the final codes to enter in survey forms:
5: '02' (Islam)
6: '0821'(Mehdavi Muslim)
7: 'X' ( as there is no sub caste system in us)
Regards
8: 'X' (as we are not putting anything in Column No.7)
10: '03' (Urdu)

Please Note:This is the final and authentic coding, Please dont get confused, with any other messages.

It is heartening & shameful to note that few people are calling themselves 'Darvesh', 'Jhulas' etc just to take advantages of worldly affairs even though they have renounced worldly desires. This will negate the renouncement of world if they call themselves 'Darvesh', and they are answerable before Allah for this act. A Mehdavi should and must enter only Mehdavi if he is the follower of Hz. Syed Mohammed Mehdi Maud Juanpuri alaihis salam. Allahu Aalam.

Warm regards.
