The leader of Alshabab is a somalilander, if anything he is working with Somaliland..tan kale somaliland qaska xamar ka socda faaido bay ku qabta.. anyways in aan ku danbaabo ma rabo shekadan wa ka baxay!..haku macanaato dhexna kuma jirtid you are biased but whatever works for you.. salaam

A khadar waan soomanahay qof islaaman ahay anigu warka uun baan soo tabiyey it is funny how your posts are biased and anti certain groups...dacad ma tihid waad ogtahay ee ilaahay ka cabso! Idinkaan ka daran oo XX wuxu so dhajiyaya ka comment gareenaya..Ignore this dude!! salaam

Koolkat, it makes perfect sense! I will give it a shot, so it is onion, hilib suqaar and that's it..all I have to do is fry and season it??! sounds so easy! there were days I used to love sanbuus, but those are gonnnne! I don't like it ..i guess wuu iga batay! Val check out that website I posted.. www.mysomalifood.com you can also look for tammy's somali home. She has plenty of recipes..I hope that helps!.. salam

^I used to be lazy..but alhamdulilah I have changed lol..now I do eat suxuur...but soor kama helo..soor waa shuuro somaha??..I would eat saren over it any day!..bt yeah thanks for the suggestion! It wouldn't hurt to try! salaam

^yesterday I didn't even bother making samosa, I know samosa is what makes ramadan ramadan..bt I think dadka hada wayba sanifayaan..maybe I will make it one of these days bt I guess it is no longer the every day ramadan food that u need to have at your table!... anyways ppl im gonna go thru this website...www.mysomalifood.com that was suggested to us on another thread by our lovely sister Blessed..hopefully I wil find something I can cook for Iftar today ..and if u guys have any other suggestions add to it salaam

^ oh coool...so kalaankal is the reer hamar way of saying suqaar. waan gartay..for a minute I thought it was a new dish I was excited so she ate at her mom's house suqaar iyo malawax iyo mango..afur wacan ba kugu dhacay Ms.Kool Kat maybe that's why you skipped suxuur LOL...these days i cant stand rice muchhhhhhh..or baasto..suqaar ba jeclahay!..im gonna make it today again inshallah... any other tips people..what do u guys cook? salaam

Poor you u shouldnt have skipped suxuur, BTW what is kalankaal?

^war shiekh xagey ku dhacdaa? it reminds me that song war shiiq by abduqadir Jubba! Oba how cute, my ayeeyo is also from buuhodle! who knows we might be long lost cousins salaam

To avoid heart burn stay clear of heavy foods & especially fried stuff which has too much herbs added to it. Ramadan is about self-restraint, that includes after you afur as well. Good Saxuur foods: Yogurt with a tea spoon of flaxseed Cereal/Weetbix with banana or berries Porrige with Agave nectar Toast / sandwich (light toppings) Pancake with dates (malawax from earlier on) Fruit with frozen yogurt or ice cream (it’s really hot at the moment) Slice of plain cake and milk Soup with a bun or slice of toast (if you’re very hungry) Or at least that’s what I would eat if I ever woke up for saxur, the prayer & cup of tea and a glass of water if there is time is usually enough. I am always astounded that people can eat full meals at that hour of the night. People eating heavy afur/saxur are doing themselves no favours. Lily, thank you walaal for your suggestions. Someone needs to advice these guys (ayoub and Ob iyo kuwa sidoodu kale bariis aroorti cuna)...acuudubilaah we eat bariis for suxuur iyo chicken kulahaa! Ayoub lol like lily said u are not doing yourself a favour ee walaal bal eat healthy ..follow Lily's advice..she gave couple of nice suggestions there even if u don't like sareen iyo borash iyo waxaas (aniga aad uma jecli borash ama sareen laakin wa iska cuna it is better to be healthy)..kolay bariis aroorti saa markay early u tahay maba cuni karo.. salaam P.s Lily u should wake up for suxur, to me it never makes sense to wake up for fajr but not for suxur! hada kolay saladi u kacasid oo ay khasab tahay in aa tukatid maxa cuntada uga boodi lol..bt I can understand wanting to sleep a bit more, maybe u should sleep a bit earlier than usual just a thought

oh subhanalah these kinda of pics always brought tears to my eyes.. caruur yaryar oo gaajo hayso hoyooyin silcaya meel dheer oo fog ayeey iga taabata alle ha u sahlo! Mr Duke I am glad that you didn't bother to post all these pics abt puntland celebrations and decided instead to post this...adiga puntland jacaylka u qabtid ismaba laheen ull overlook all the celebrations..I am so proud of you! and I am sincere walahi not trying to be funny.. Inshalah ilaahay haka dul qaado somali waxa haysta....somali aya somali maanta mesha xun dhigtay. Laakin ducada marnaba lama yareesto oo ilaahay inta xun meel hanaga mariyo...masaakintana ha u gargaaro.. salaam

^thanks walaal inshallah alle hanaga wada aqbalo! I will remember to make dua for the solers (ka awoow ka awoow baan tirinayey I forgot you folks lol).. salaam

Sugar_Man lol I haven't been to the UK, but I thought people in the UK were more somali than us and more somalinized (if that's even a word)..But, either way if you choose to move here you are more than welcome..laakin xafadaha somalidu ku badantahay faaido ma leh ka fogow (oh wait that was the very reason why u were moving here lol never mind bal ka war doon lol) Zack waryaa bal is jir..ma rabo tulada yar aa dagantahay in aan wax ka shegee LOL.. salaam

Just came back from tarawiix, walahi I'm getting used to standing a long time. Plus, I went to this pakistani mosque and the shiekh was reading quiet fast so it wasnt so bad Libaax, walaal never thought of eating sabayad for suxur, bt then again who has the energy to make sabayad after long hrs of praying tarawiix...I love making sabayad but its just hectic and time consuming ..anyways im sure ur wify wouldnt mind doing that for you lol..I was just saying!..sabayad with banana is always yummmy! Che shekada meel kale baad u qaaday..I never said that! I said you live alone so what excuse do u have to stay at home to pray tarawiix ma caruur yar yar baad seexsan mise hoyada oo wayeel ah baad haysa...intaad waqti freega haysatid ka faaideeso uun ula jeeday! lool Aaliyyah waa iska caadi waxaas amba hadda baris ii hilib aan ku saxuurtay. Oba, lol ma sareen yar dabka in aad saartaan ka wahsanasaaan..lazy Farahs! good night ppl! and my plan was to stay away from Sol bt seems im here even more often LOL..sad case walee! salaam

Ayoub it is not healthy to eat something heavy in the morning..but whatever works for you walaal. Ramadan Kariim to u too.. okey you all gotta fix the table for iftar, afur wacan for those of you in my neck of the woods salaam

^who eats bariis or chicken in the morning? Unless you mean baris cad oo caano lugu daray? and then I would have to ask whats with the chicken? .. suxurta waxay ku ficantahay borash ama sareen iyo wixi inta la mid ah wax jilicsan.. salaam

Taleex, it is sad that somalis are refugees in their own country..I really feel bad for those somalis..laakin insha'alah the south will settle and those ppl will go back to their cities insha'Allah khyr! BTW I have childhood pics of hargaisa....waan yaabay marku itusay bulcowsyo is dulsaaran (I was wondering where riyaale and co took all the money that was given to them by the international countries lol).. salaam

I am impressed that u guys know the cities by just seeing their pics? u guys been to all these cities..or just memorized the way they look from seeing pics online..either way good for you ..it is so sad that probably the only picture I knew of all these pics was my hometown laascaanod and thats not because I was ever there (simply I CAME across it before on facebook lol yup facebook saddd I know bt true).. anyways, why is there refugee camps outside of hargaisa lol? dadka magalada maso gali karaan miya? lol

^lol@ keene ba xasidsan..I don't think XX is necessarily xasid he just never makes much sense lol xasidnimo kama aha laakin baan is idhi..walahi his display pictures sums him up LOL.. anyways, taleexi you do have a point. But, at the same time it doesn't hurt for them to celeberate..halka hawshooda haka sii wataan! salaam

^I thought hargaisa was better looking than that. That's actually hargaisa?

check this out...u cant miss it!

Good article. My mother always makes juice from fresh fruits. I'm lazy though I prefer to buy juice from the store lol.. jazakalah for the post! salaam

Aaliyah ramadaan kariim and cafis sister and thanks for your comment Ramadan Kariim to you too walaal. in la is cafiyona wa la isku leeyahay meshana waaba forum oo ah hadal moye kolay ma wax kale la is yeelay suu dhoho NG it is only words on a screen..Hopefully most ppl know it is just words and wont take anything personal....n you are wlc...inshallah puntland waxan u rajaynaya guul iyo horuma..somaliwayn oo dhan sido kale. Alle qofkasta nabad iyo wanaag ha ku simo..somalina ha mideeyo..dagaalka qaxarka iyo gaajada somalida haysatana alle ha ka dul qaado oo ha u sahlo insha'allah...dhulkeeno oo nabad ahna ilaahy ha nugu celiyo, kuwaan dhalnona ilaahay haku simo nasiibka ee ku koran dhulkoda oo horumariyaan inshallah..ameen ameen salaam

Suxur is so important especially when afurad now is pretty late. So guys don't miss it...its part of the sunnah as well. Che why would u wanna pray tarawiix at home?? when I was younger my dad wuu na tujin jiray some of the days when we don't feel like going bt we were a big family. However, most of the days we would spend at the mosque. bt from what I gather you are just a guy who lives on his own marka maxa guriga ku fadhisinaya war orad masjidka iska xadiri ..Unless you are not feeling too well then it is fine u can pray at home or even u dnt have to pray wa sunnah farad ma aha hadaad kari karin..laakin way wacantahay.. Ramadan Kariim once again..and I need to stop posting on Sol this month and spend more time reading Quran..its been spending a lil more time on the shelves. Sad but true! salaam

One last song I promise

aww beautiful pics. Congrats to puntlanders wishing them all the best hana la is cafiyo inshallah...somali oo dhan wanag halala damco walaaltinimona halaga shaqeeyo salaam
