mashallah thank you guys all for the links. another beautiful video to check out, The happiness Solution-Imam Siraj Wahhaj

wearing khamees definitely is much better than baggy clothes that guys nowadays are accustomed to wearing. and no am not gullible I think green suit would suit any somali dude. try it salaam

are u gonna dress like that on eid day?..mashallah. I usually see arab guys all dressed up and somali guys..well I can not generalize but for the most part baggy jeans with big tshirts....they must have missed it was eid day salaam

why would you be thinking abt eid clothes right now...its too early for that. Focus on the last 10 days of ramadan inshallah and make the most of it. and no I did not shop, I usually shop a day or two days before Eid. I like to buy it the last minute. salaam

nop never. Your body is not yours , ilaahay ba ku siiyey..and anything that harms your body is haraam. salaam

He made me laugh,he said "she wont sleep until I sleep,she wont eat until I have eaten"..Now is there such a xalimo out there? [big Grin] [Razz] I guess not. I want to be fed first..

I would luv to meet let me seee...well i have more in mind bt since i have to narrow down to three..they are, Malika,koolkat, and Ibtisam... as for the guys? now I can't give that away..its confidential lol salaam

wrong thread ..sry!

I came across this buraanbur clip that was promoting peace and Somalinimo.It just left me speechless and in tears! Buraanbur Duco

I respect your choice walaal.inshallah May allah swt assist us in having good pious kids that don't fail our efforts. Inshallah good luck to those of you who are raising kids in the west. It is not an easy task. But, all will be well with Allah's help. salaam

You seem to be insisting to make your kids date at such a young age to the person of your choosing. Just out of curiosity what happens when you allow your kids to date "yeah kid you can date am in no way going to stop you from dating thats old school" and the kid goes " no daddy am seeing this cadaan kid at school this somali guy wont do"....oh I forgot you already answered that on your other post, something along the lines of screaming lol.... Hopefully I did not come across as I was poking fun of your opinion. I truly was not I was just trying to make a point rather. Like you are getting ahead of yourself and by matching them you are actually letting them get comfortable with the idea of dating at such a young age, and they shouldn't. I believe that a parent should be strict with their children. And, that means no dating..i do not care abt who..no cadan/chinese/somali /japanese..it is straight no. Your kids might not be grateful today, but they will be..count on that walaal! salaam

Actually a friend of mine's cousin is married to a Somali guy and she's indian. But, she converted and last I heard they were happy. am not sure if the meher had anything to do with it. I doubt it. Even though it's awesome to marry people who have your culture, language so that way it is easy for him/her to communicate well with your grandparents and family. For some it works to marry outside their race and they find that happiness with ppl of other races. so who are we to judge... salaam

I guess we will have to agree to disagree walaal, each on his own as they say. am sure your intentions are good, hopefully it will work out. salaam

If i have daughters, then around the age of 15 to 19 i will pick some good looking Somali boys from the neighbourhood I disagree with your comment walaal. I think you should stop focusing on dating so much and pushing them to date somalis at such a young age. You don't push them to somali guys as soon as they turn 15 just cuz you think they will go with other races. its possible that you actually might be making a bigger chaos by trying to fix a problem that does not even exist. Make sure till the age of 18 you do not allow your girls to date rather get them to focus on studies and hang out with their friends and have fun. But, no dating that is the key point here walaal. At least make that your rule and what happens behind your back you can not control lol bt am sure if you talk to your kids and be upfront inshallah nothing unwanted will take place. I think it all boils down to trust? do your kids trust you? if they trust you then they will come to you and share their personal issues and what not. Inshallah Teach them there is more to life than dating? its this age that we live in where if you are not dating then you aint cool enough. I mean jack and farah and faxiya what abt me? lol..make sure they are smarter than that. Ensure them with patience better things will wait for them. Patience is a virtue. Inshallah once they finish high school and start university and they are mature they can go and find that suitable man if they are ready to settle. I hope that helps, I was just in the preaching mode ... salaam

Marx brother focus on your Ibadah and increase your supplications. We are in a blessed month alhmadulilah. who knows maybe your duca will be answered and some one worth it will come by in time. Just have faith. salaam

^Ukhti,it's the thought and the gesture of gift-giving.And not the actual gift.We easily forget and take for granted our loved ones.Simple gestures like gifts ,little notes and telling your loved ones 'how you feel' can act as reminders to why they are so important. I was answering her post sis and she said he didn't give her gifts. So I was actually referring to actual gifts. However, its another to not be caring? why would she be with someone who does not care about her? you have to be caring, loving and nice spouse who always asks after the well being of his/her family.Cuz if that doesn't exist of course that marriage is not gonna work. But, when you talk about actual tangible gifts? am not really sure it means a whole lot? it means something but it doesn't necessarily means the person cares, every once in a while after work the guy can grab something expensive without it really expressing his real feelings. However, it is essential and the foundation of marriage to be caring, loving and expressing that through actions and words. When I say actions it means your spouse actually going out of his way to spend time with you, to help you care for your child. Things that no money out there can buy... But of course don't get me wrong gifts are awesome too...so yeah if your friend is into perfumes, little dazzling things she should not fall out of love? cuz love is not based on things its more than that..as already said after few years of marriage people take each other for granted. So, who knows maybe she doesn't do the little things she used to do that used to get her that smile or gifts...or maybe if the man is just nin wax fahmeen hadal cad lagu dhoho waryaa hadiyadeed keen or albaabkaas kama furayo.. ok guys I woke up for my suxuur and am going back to my sleep...inshallah I made sense..and if not then I was half asleep.lol salaam

lol @We also have drive thru grocery stores... now that's taking laziness to a whole new level!

I believe that if the couple have children together regardless of the situation they should stick together and work things out. Try to make it work is my advice to ur friend...but if it all comes to worse at least make sure that child has good relationship with her/his father. he only bought her a gift few times I must have missed this part ...gifts did you say? shes gonna divorce him and make her child fatherless cuz he doesnt give her gifts? lol...ok if i was in her shoes I would want gifts too but it wouldn't be the end of the world if he doesnt get it..am sure she can just go to the mall and buy herself all that she wants..and who knows talk to him abt how she feels.. seriously I can not imagine a life without my father and I would not want anyone out there to be raised without one. Talk to your friend and make her realize gifts are important but its not enough excuse to make her marriage end and leave her child without a father figure in his/her life. inshallah all will work out. salaam

LOL ibti...it's open now. Feel free to msg me. salaam
