The Daudi Bohra

On the 10th day of Ramadan we look at a people group called the Daudi Bohra. They are mainly located in India.

Country of Focus: 🇮🇳India

Excerpt from 30DayofPrayer.com:

“There are over a million Bohra worldwide. The majority live in India, though there are significant populations in the USA, Europe, and East Africa.

For the Bohra, guidance and blessing from the Dai represent the path of success in this world and the next.”
