About BWA
Al Dai al Fatemi Syedna Mufaddal Saifuddin Saheb (TUS) is the spiritual and temporal leader of The Dawoodi Bohra community and leading the sublime mission of Dawat & Deen of Islam throughout the world. He guides the mumineen to keep them together in this modern world and also formulates organizations for the welfare and upliftment of all mumineen; men and women.
In 1391 H.(1971 AD), Syedna Mohammad Burhanuddin(Q.A) created the Burhani Women’s Association for the welfare of the Dawoodi Bohra women and appointed his Aqeela; al-Hurra al Fadela, Khalesat u Naib al-Ameer al Mumineen Aaisaheba Amatullah Aaisaheba (Q.A) as its Chief Patron. Her chaste personality, magnificent deeds and her inevitable passion to serve Syedna Mohammad Burhanuddin(Q.A) was no doubt a high ideal for every muminah. May Allah bless and venerate her heavenly abode.
After the sad demise of Aaisaheba, Syedna Mohammad Burhanuddin(Q.A) had appointed his daughter Shehzadi Batul Baisaheba as its Chief Patron. Today, this organization is proud to have Shehzadi Husaina Baisaheba as its Chief Patron. She is the daughter of Syedna Mohammad Burhanuddin (Q.A) and sister of Syedna Muffadal Saifuddin.(TUS).
On the auspicious occasion of Milad un Nabi in the year 1422 H, Syedna Mohammad Burhanuddin(Q.A) had graciously granted this association a new ‘ CONSTITUTION’ for better organization of their activities & actions.
Today this association has approximately 131 branches in India and 62 branches in foreign countries with the strength of approximately 6034 members in India and approximately 1878 members in foreign countries. This brings about the total number of its branches to 193 and approximately 7912 members being associated with it. It is indeed a great honor and privilege to be a member of this association.
Muminaat women over the age of 25 can enlist themselves in this association in their respective jamaat through their Aamil saheb ( local representative of Dawat).
We pray unto Allah Subhanahu to grant our Aqa Moula Syedna Mufaddal Saifuddin(TUS) a long and prosperous life for the betterment of mumineen all over the world.(Ameen).
