Accessing Majalis
Components
When
you click on desired Majlis Component, a new browser window
will start automatically. There are two predefined ways
to access Majalis Components.
a) Quick Selection
b) Custom Selection
a) Quick Selection
At the moment it is the default setting for Hadees-e-Kisa
and Ziarat. When you press Hadees-e-Kisa or Ziarat button,
no wizard will start. All existing entries of Hadees-e-Kisa
or Ziarat will be displayed one page at a time.
b) Custom Selection
This option is available for Mona'jaat, Man'qabat, Salam,
Souz, Mersiya, Ruba'ee, Speech and Noha. When you press
required majalis component button, a user-friendly wizard
will start that lets you choose some of the basic criteria
for majalis components. The wizard pages will run in the
following order:
Wizard's First Page: Gender
First decide which gender you would like to access. There
are two options:
1) Male
2) Female
By default "Male" is selected, It means that the list of
all male performers will be displayed for the selected component.
Wizard's Second Page: Language
Second page of wizard asks for the language in which you
would like to get the list. Only the available languages
for THAT component+gender will be displayed in combo box.
Tip:
If you would like to get majlis component in all languages
then do not select any language, just press Next button.
Wizard's Third Page: Country
This page lets you to select the country where the components
were performed. REMEMBER that this country does not mean
the country from which performer belongs, for example, Moulana
Sadiq Hasan belongs to Pakistan BUT he has delivered speeches
in Pakistan, UAE, UK, etc. If you select UK in country,
then only those majalis will be displayed that were performed
in UK only.
Thereofre we have "ALL" in default setting and we recommend
to use it.
Wizard's Fourth Page
This page has three main options, but you must have to select
ONLY ONE option, or leave these options as "ALL"
(however, it is not recommended), otherwise an error message
will be displayed. When you leave these options "ALL",
the entire list for that component is displayed from database
which may be in hundreds and may take long time to download.
For Speech Component, you must select EITHER Topic, OR Masaib,
OR Speaker.
For other Components, you must select EITHER Topic, OR Author,
OR Speaker.
Each
of the combo box will have the list of available data for
your selected Gender+Language+Country.
SPECIAL NOTE: We are extremely sorry for many omissions
and "unknown to us" entries, specifically in author
field. We tried our best to identify the names of actual
authors ( of Mersiya, Salam, Noha, etc.), but we were not
successful or sure for many entries. We apologies for any
inconvenience in this regard. Please tell us at Feedback@ImamBargah.com
for any information that we don't have.
TIP: If you did not see your required author, then try to
use "unknown to us" option in author combo box(if available).
You may identify your author by his work (for example the
first line of Stanza).
In any way, When you press next button, a list of selected
Gender+Language+Country+Topic(or Author or Speaker) will
be displayed. This list can contain upto 25 entries. If
your query returns more than 25 entries then you have to
move between pages of list by the buttons available at the
top and bottom of the list. If the query returns more than
10 pages (each of 25 entries, means over 250 entries) then
First, Last, Next and Previous buttons will also appear
for fast navigation between pages. Here you can either listen/watch
online or download for later listening. The Play button
indicates 'A' for audio and "V" for video contents.
REMEMBER that online listening may be disturbed by various
factors including speed of your computer, baud rate of your
MODEM, number of open browsers in your computer, services
of your telecommunication company, performance of your ISP,
Backbone connection of your ISP, and high traffic in our
server.

Religious
Photos
It is a large
archive of photos related to Islam and specific to Shia
Sect. There are main categories and sub-categories to choose.
After that a list of all available photographs will be displayed
in the form of Thumbnails with captions. To see Full/Large
photograph click on the required Thumbnail.
Even though these photographs are sufficiently good on monitor,
but may not produce good printouts, because they are scanned
at very low resolution, from 72DPI-300DPI, depending on
the quality and size of original photograph. Main reason
to scan at low resolution is the limited web space to store
these photographs. We may increase their resolution when
we will have more web space in future. However, you may
request us at info@ImamBargah.com
to obtain any particular photograph in a better quality,
we may arrange to send it to you via email.
