^ protection the nation from terrorists did you say???indha adeeg qayra caadi ah.! the only terrorists we see that are terrorizing innocent people are the somaliland militia! Bilan, you are right hun. Alle ha garab galo dadka dhulkoda u dagalamaya! xaqooda uun bay radinayaan salaam

^ I don't see what this girl is gaining by marrying an old man against her wishes...and dnt bring that excuse of oh her family will be provided! risiqooda alla haya....I am sure they have survived with her for 19 years, and they can still survive.

Haret said her mother, Kusa Onle, spent three days planning the ceremony with the groom's family, before Haret was even told what was going on. Over the course of just 11 days, Haret said, her dream of studying sociology at a local university was dashed. Now, she said, her biggest worry is how she will manage a marriage to a 46-year-old cleric who lives in Canada. Pathetic. These old men need to be reported walahi I am serious..it is one thing for a girl to want to marry a guy from abroad as long as she chooses to...but forcing upon her? That I completely disagree with!... Chocolate yes they are ..hoyooyinkood waa greedy old farts as you put it lol..risiqooda meel kale bay ka raadsan kareen. They have no rights to sell their daughters to some old men oo dhali kara akhas. !..bottom line, it is the ultimate choice of their daughters, if that daughter chose to marry someone from abroad double her age. I careless. But, mothers to sell them and proceed with the wedding without even letting the girls know is just ridiculous and u cant make excuses for the mothers.. salaam

Ina Cali Warsame ROCKS! MANSHA'ALLAH!!! She is an ICON!!! Yeah Koolkat she does rock!..mashalah Saado Cali Warsame deserves this award and much more!.. Can't wait to meet her ...counting the days!.. salaam

The way I understood it is that he was implying that their mother is more beautiful than them.... that they dnt match up to their mother's beauty?..I am sure they love their mother but it is still rude comment lol...it is one thing to say hoyada way quruxbadantahay it is another to say ..hoyadood ma raacin. do u see the difference!... n if someone does say ur son is more handsome than u that would prolly be something u would be proud of ..the opposite wouldnt hold marka la dhoho sida abihi he isnt handsome lol..u get me! salaam

lol@ maybe he was implying that your mother is a very beautiful woman....it is so cute the way u are trying to explain what he means! I mean that is exactly how she understood it LOL

I mean like someone has to communicate with their spouse and u know say what they expect from the marriage, slapping her wont get him somewhere..and if he is not happy with her he can divorce her. He doesn't need to get physical..dats basically what I meant the second part.. Arinta kale aad so qortayna dabcan ma aha wax wanagsan ilaahay aya kala xisaabtami doona. Laakin dadka somalia jogana yaga ka daran, nin ba u imanaya gursaday markasay dan ka galeen oo gabdhohoda ku darayaan yagoo halka risiq ka raadsanaya..bari haduu ka tagona dee reerka gabadhu ka dhalatay iyo gabadhuba they have their share of the blame. And, those men who are taking advantage of the situation those families find themselves in they are to blame too. Neither of them are innocent so im not really feeling sorry for those girls... salaam

^ Dadka waxa kaga shekeeyey wanaag kuma wadaan. EE meel daran ayeey rabaan in ay ka turaan..Somali waxay ku maahmaahda gacmii dhowrshe ayaa amaan hela (okey I made up that maahmaah but it makes sense somaha lol).. Inshallah communicate with people, that is the only way to get your point across. And, if you are not liking what you see..albaabka ka bax...ha is dhibin! aduunka khasab ma yaaal.. salaam

@aaliyyah, imagine, gabdha qaar hadaan xogeey layara jilcinin, nolal uma ahan. Calashan dilka ayaa qabana, weeybo kushaqeeyaan. hadaan laadilin, they say, ninkeeyga wuu xumaaday,lol. Dilkaa qabana camal nooh, and she is happ that way. Hahha. Ala dumarku nocya badnayeeeeey. Lol Sidan hadad aminsantahay meel fiican kuma socotid..lol@ dilka qabanaya!!...ogow taad tishid gabadhaad dhashid ayeey ka go'antahay what goes around comes around. Wax xun ha saadsan salaam

^Personally, I am against the concept of "divorcing" and I believe a person have to try every single solution out there before they walk away from their spouse. Laakin marka silic dhahdid? if you mean she is being physically abused or shit like that waxaas ma aminsani a girl needs to take it..hal dhirbaaxa xita? who is he to slap her? gabadha saso kale I would advice them to kick him out then and there!..When a marriage gets physical I dont think there is a solution for it, anything else someone can try to fix! bt if a man slaps you? thats a big no-no..How dare he? lol...no sister needs to put up with him! As somalis say "somali been been kuma maahmaahdo"..so I agree with that proverb. Minus the "sodon" lol lets say two or three ...three tries haday gabadhi wax ku wayday yada wax ka siyihin. Even thou personally I don't believe a sister should remarry if she has kids...she can raise her kids and thats it but then again it is personal choice. salaam

^Odey Somali well said. Che loool

aaliyyah you forgot tha salaam, lol. Miyaad yaraha mood eheed? Lol lol next time I wont forget Thats right. Lakiin its next to impossibility keeping a video tape to yourself. By the way, are there conditions for men and women to mix? Yup it is hard I doubt most ppl keep videos to themselves, one way or the other it will find its way to other relatives..and the conditions of women n men mixing, well of course i guess you cant have have them dancing together in the same dance floor?? that is if u were following islamic teachings....and that kinda takes the whole fun out..dad mesha is dawanaya lol.. So people just gotta have only girls party! it is more fun...amadee sida somalida u can have mix wedding and everyone dancing lol Lakiin naag waxaa oogu xun mida ninkeeda kadawa jaqjaq-leeso. Micnihi aanan waxbo kamaqal oo ku-afceliso. Taas camal, talow hadii dharbaaxo afka lagooyo, sow ciilka kaama dageen??? Lol it is not good to get physical. If a guy aint happy with his wife, or a girl isn't happy with her husband. It is good to just walk out...even thou I dont really advice people to rush to get a divorce its better than hitting one another? what is the point?.. P.s. Our generation of somalis malaha anshaxa ayaa naga xun. Siduu nin ufuraa gabadhi abtigiis macaan? Walee waa yaab. Don't get involved with your cousin to begin with lol.. salaam

loool we aint talking abt me here so that question is irrelevant!

Showqi you speak dutch. That is cool!

looool good one! but somalis are judgmental that is a fact..not all but many of them

^aroos laga tumo wax ka qaldan ma arko...dadka qaar ma aha diinta in ay dhinac kale ka rogan lol..laakin arooska laga tunto in la duubo ama mixed noqdo wa sheeko kale. If some one wants a mix wedding it better meet islamic conditions..bt if u wanna have fun I guess its gonna be only girls...and they have the right to dance and whatever. But, video taping is clearly unislamic unless the girl is keepin the video just to herself! bt thats kinda hard..

ouch@hooyadeed maraacin....! what a heartless comment!..Ms moons Somalis are too judgmental... salaam

Blame the media for encouraging one image..you gotta be light tall slim blah blah..everyone wants to meet that perspective. Nin baa somalia aaday ba layidhi wuxu yidhi gabadhahn is cadeeya ma rabo..he found out those back home also use those creams to make themselves look light LOL.. salaam

I agree with Juxa if you are seeing a guy u shouldnt request too much of him he isnt your husband. It is just a matter of making sure he meets all those conditions (As juxa said my list is so damn long! LOL) Genius is right many girls do ask a lot while they are seeing guys, waxaas saqajaanimo u aqaana aniga. I mean maxaad u dhibatay when he is giving u all those gifts... (err I guess there is a catch there!! and some girls cant have it both ways give me plenty of gifts badan halkana fadhi if u know what i mean) salaam

^heard all this songs minus the last one. Heesta kowaad aad post gareesayna wa hees qiima badan.....waa riwayad aduunku laguma raago..lovely lyrics!
