asalaamu alaikum, walaalayaal one thing you all need to understand you can find all kinda ppl wearing hijaab, and all kinda ppl not dressed the way Allah had command them to dress but yet are good in many other ways. So not every girl who wears hijaab follows what Allah expects of her. I saw this somali girl with hijab having this african american guy hugging her and slapping her behind with hijab on! Modest so are u saying perhaps since she is with a black guy den she shouldnt wear hijaab? if your intentions are good den perhaps u should approach that sister and tell her that it is masha-allah that she wears the hijab, bt perhaps she should work on all other aspects of her life, and shouldnt just limit her relegion on hijab. Yacni qof fiicnaan yar sameeyay qaladkiisa uun lama arko, hijaab way xidhantahay wa wax wanagsan lakin waa la waniya dadka. and just cuz u seen one sister conducting herself in such a manner doesnt mean u need to generalize. wa salaaam

asalaamu alaikum, wrote by ibti: You know what i don't like, empty discussions and debates. Somali and Arab people debate till they are blue in the face with no end product, no action, no improvement, maaxad iska xiijin in that case, just shoosh and amus Ibtisaam I agree with you sis, which is why I barely discuss nowadays somali politics, I can debate all day long, but there is no point to it since at the end of the day none of us are going to make any actions, we just gonna proceed w/ our daily lives school work etc...and not only that somalia is not going to change, everytime you think oh this time its gonna be different, things just get worst. I gave up walahi, bt ofcourse I do make du'a for things to get better,,,and lets just wait and see how things turn out. But, lets not bother with all these debates as there is end to it, and certainly we can do more productive things w/ our time. As for females and males discussing politics...there is nothing wrong w. that...I use to discuss politics w/ my father and older bros all the time..and still do from time to time, so we cant say all somali guys hate discussing politics with the ladies ... I do recall actually this one incident where a guy told me " gabadh maxaan uga shega siyasad" so yeh some could be conservative wa salaam

Asalaamu alaikum, First of all I gota thank Allah swt for everything that he had given me for the past 20 yrs, and secondley gota thank him for giving me a family and relatives who care so much abt me, and last bt not least for all my friends. wa salaamu alaikum

Asalaamu alaikum, I wanted to point out that Islam allows us to celebrate birth days, as long as it is an expression of gratitude to Allah, and we are thanking him for all the blessing that he had blessed us with. For instance, the prophet use to fast on Mondays and when he was asked the reason behind it, he said that it was the day he was born. So whoever wants to celebrate birthdays that is fine, just make sure that you don’t imitate non-believers, and do not make so much fuss about it, as in making it big occasion inviting tons of ppl and partying all night long, that is considered bidca, therefore we should all refrain from it. So basically what I am trying to say is there is nothing wrong with celebrating birthdays as long as it is not included haram practices. Wa salaam

Asalaamu alaikum, Thierry you know how Japanese ppl are perhaps she wasnt doing well in school and life in general that she decided to take her life away. Japanese ppl for the most part expect perfection, they are so presssured. Not that justifies the fact they commit suicide ....... Allah swt said in his Koran: "O ye who believe!... [do not] kill yourselves, for truly Allah has been to you Most Merciful. If any do that in rancour and injustice, soon shall We cast him into the Fire..." (Qur'an 4:29-30). Suicide is forbidden in Islam, so who ever thinks that they have failed in every aspect of life, you have to remember that our purpose to live is to worship Allah swt. Whenever you are going through hard times, remember Allah swt is just testing yr patience....so ye all be strong and Allah swt will reward you in time. May allah guide us all to the right path. wa salaam

asalaamu alaikum, I wasnt aware that guys were not allowed to wear bright colors, I barely c guys wearing bright colors though. but, seen few times guys wearing bright shirts to wedding parties and it makes dem stand out masha-allah. I know I seen this one guy the other day I was like masha-allah couldnt take my eyes off him hahah, so unless u guys have a real daliil ....dont bother ... wa salaamu alaikum

lol u'r all nuts ...shaqa la'aanti aa niga badatay .. wa salaam

Asalaamu alaikum, Yesterday I attended this muxadaro and masha-allah it was so informative and it sort of made me think again, you know how when you dont attend that many islamic lectures your heart just deviates from all the right things, not saying I am bad lol just u know u sorta get too involved in this dunya. Anyways, just wanted to share this story ... so the lady told us that a man was told taste the 1st thing you see, bury the second thing you c , and I guess reach out for the third thing. So the 1st thing he saw was some sort of food, I dont recall what it was bt it seemed so tasteless at 1st, bt soon he found that it was actually sweet. The second thing he found was an egg he kept burying bt every time he tries to leave ,,,,it gets out ,,,and he did this consistently, when he couldnt bury it he just left it.So the third thing he saw was a beautifull woman, and he kept trying to reach out bt wasnt able to get hold of her, the man didnt understand the meaning behind all this so he went to someone who would translate for him ..he was told the food that he tasted bitter at 1st bt later on become sweet....was sabr (patience) the more u endure the better yr reward would be from Allah subhanalaah....the second thing was other ppl's wealth...and if u borrow from someone , u gota pay yr debts ..no matter how hard u try to hide or what nt ...you will pay it back sooner or later The third thing was dunya .....dunya is a beautifu thing that we all trying to reach out , bt never get satisfied of it....I hope this makes many of u look again at yr deeds, and perhaps strive to become better muslims...insha-allah wa salaamu alaikum

loooooooool @ thats because u are 31 ouch...... good one walahi Hungri, thanks for sharing. wa salaamu alaikum

subahanalaah what have u posted dabshid ??? this pics are disgrace to us somali girls. At least those of us who know how much we worth. There is no doubt that we somali girls are pretty alhmadulilaah we gota be greatful, bt there is no need to show it all. Besides, as some one commented most of these pics have been taking from HI5, and it is haraam that you just posted it. wa salaamu alaikum

wrote by cynical : he then tried getting my attention by touching my leg now that made me take my umbrella and wacking him with it he started swearing at me ... i just told him to ffff off i then stood up and told the bus driver that am being harassed and if he could call the police for me.. It is true lota somali guys would approach u just on the streets. All you gota do is either be upfront that you aint interested I remember this one time i did that and the guy started speaking somali to me " nin xun miyaan ahay" I was like " maku aqaano so ma garanayo waxa tahay ". Or perhaps a better more civilized way would be to let them know that u gota man and that u r happy with yr relationship works for the most time. However, cynical lol this guy u met wasnt typical somali, he must have had sum mental issues why would he try touch yr leg to get yr attention, he should have just left as soon as u said u were not interested in him. But, serves him right that you wached him with yr umbrella...... but hun lol next time watch what u do, I mean control yrself u neva know he could be plotting a revenge now , watch yr back from now on ..... wa salaamu alaikum p.s. as for xalwad yeah it is good to just eat it as few times as possible (like eid day etc), as it not good for yr health, it would cause things like heart attacks and so on, since it has so much oil and what nt.

This indian guy gets caught cheating on his wife......it was really hilarious I couldnt stop laughing and thought hey why not share with my fellow Sol members. http://www.betterloverseminar.com/desi_wife_catches_husband.php wa salaamu alaikum

When Qaalib wrote an article supporting Somali unity Red sea started a smear campaign to discredit Qaalib What can this tell us about red sea character? he is someone that has very dark history nonetheless. He is a highly educated millitary general hence how powerful his writing is. He joined the SNM in mid 1980s and fought fiercely against the Barre regime. Later when dictator Siad Barre was toppled, he was one of the key members that anounced the UDI (unilateral declation of independence), although some people say he really never believed the whole seccesion thing, nevertheless, he was part and parcell of that situation. in addition, being former police commander of Somalia, and being a member of the SNM isn't the the problems here, although some of you might have slight of different opinion on this, but he was consider the biggest reason that caused the civil war that occured within the I.S.Q. tribe in mid 1990s. He was the one who single handlely took the hand of his tribe or sub clan and dragged them to fight head on against the Cigal adminstration. some of you might ask why? well let say it wasn't for the sake of unitary, however, he was upset about Cigal who hailed from different sub-clan of being the leader. He wanted to be in that position to being the head of the state, hence if he was given that position, I am sure he would be just Riyale Kahin today of being the head of Somaliland and claiming to being a different country and his writing would be vis versa. The truth is, Gen. Ghalib doesn't have much of face, it doesn't really matter how much he writes about the importance of unity and what is good for the Somali people, since he was the reason that hundreds of civilians from Hargeisa, Burco, Berbera, and Salaxley lost their lives after clan warfare that he himself fueled. So, before he starts to put a pen on a paper, he needs to be asked why and why was he the root of the problems that as a direct result caused the deaths and displacement of thousands of innocent civilians from their homes in Hargiesa, Burco and Berbera which were the places that the fighting took place? After he fueled the fire, what did he do? He did what any naftiise usheqayste would, which is run to western country and take Welfare checks. While taking welfare, he continue to utter rubish and nothhing that would benefit anyone anywhere except yes he himself, because of the money that he will gather from the prints of his books. In conclusion, I say this man is utter useless big headed gacan ku dhiigleh iyo dira diraaleh ah. He has no face whatsoever in Somaliland and the rest of Somali peninsula except with few of those who are always in support of any negativity that is being said against the I.S.Q tribe. We need to look at the individual and what he is , and further we need to look at his dark past. because I know that he doesn't mean anything to Somaliweyne nor Somaliland nor anyone else for that matter except he himself. Diraadiraa leh ma libaano. To Ghalib himself: I cannot except anything no matter what package it comes in from someone who has put his own people in harms way for his own self benefit to tell me what to do. No one can except that, may be Somalis would be reunited without the people like his kind, like Riyale Kahins, Like Abdullahi Yusuf, like Cade Muse. Finally, one last note, didn't you know that Allah doesnt' destroy nation or a people unless they have done some evil things? Yes this is exactly why the Somali people are destroyed, because of hatred directed towards one another, and until that changes, don't expect anything else to change. Allah doesn't change a nation unless individuals change themselves first. Somalis cannot be together until folks like Abdullahi Yusuf and Ghalib still exist in the society and that is a fact that needs not to be overlooked. Comments on Somali Unity by Jama Mohamed Ghalib; Page # 3

cynical lol sis ...nothing is wrong w/ talking 2 some one on the phone and falling in luv ...cuz to think about it, real luv isnt based on looks ...it is more of that person's personality and what not that is going to bridge the gap and bring u 2 closer.....but hey Jacalybaro meet her dee dont be waiting . Looks like jacaylbaro is in luv ... wa salaam

Dabshid thanks brother..... This is what I got through yr Luv calculator..... 99% there must be some error, the result can't be that high! now that is what I am talking abt

the result b/w myself and my man : 29 % The chance of a relationship working out between myself and my man is not very big, but a relationship is very well possible, if the two of you really want it to, and are prepared to make some sacrifices for it. You'll have to spend a lot of quality time together. You must be aware of the fact that this relationship might not work out at all, no matter how much time you invest in it. Jacalybaro lool yr dam love calculator just broke my heart :mad: wa salaamu alaikum

Still waiting ....I dont know when they gonna play it in TO?? (if any one knows plz lemme know)...when they do insha-allah ama go and c it. Now that u guys liked it, I am sure my money wont be wasted. Looking forward to it. wa salaamu alaikum

Ibtisaam sis apart from volunteering in the hospital and helping out at school, I would say just enjoy yrself.You are just going there for vacation right?... jacaylbaro lol@ duco iyo habaar kala dooro ?? war heedhe waxa soma laga tagin wa yaabe wa salaaam

My heart goes for the donut guy ....his credit card eh ..Maskiin.. wa salaamu alaikum

crystal I really I wouldn’t understand somalis, most somali grandfathers have like two - four wives and tons of grandchildren. but, just cuz they did it doesn’t make it is right, our grandparents need to be ashamed of themselves ...How can one marry a young woman when they themselves are so darn old . As for Lazie hun it aint a win/win situation you might have got a younger abti, and yr awoowe got himself a beautiful young woman to screw around w/ (even though I still wouldnt know what she have seen in him giving that she might have been 17 lol...I bet her parents just forced her maskiinah) but what did your ayeeyo get outa of it?? … wa salaaam p.s. MC Xamar you might plan to have 2 kids,,,,but only Allah knows how many kids you gonna end up w/...you might end up with a dozen ....bt do make du'a (u might get what u wish for)

Femme I know sis that a man in his 70s needs to be with some one as well, giving that we are all humans, and age is nothing but a number. But, I was implying as to some one who is in his 70s and whose married and perhaps with tons of children/ grandchildren, and he suddenly decides to leave his wife for another .... :rolleyes: wa salaam

Asalaamu alaikum, I am just wondering as to why u adviced her to cut her hair?? what was the point? and why havent u kept yr promise and cut yr hair as well?? ...something is fishy here..were u jealous at the fact that she had a long hair? and u didnt?? :rolleyes: wa salaamu alaikum

Crystal sister there is a saying that goes if you u have to fight for yr man, then he wasnt meant to be yrs. So if yr grandfather wants a divorce, I dont think yr ayeeyo has to fight for him. insha-allah yr ayeeyo will get over him ama make du'a. wa salaamu alaikum p.s. one thing I dont understand is why old somali men marry at 70 ...or even 80.. :rolleyes:

asalaamu alaikum ye all, I was just going through somaliuk discussion forum when I came across this post...masha-allah I was crying by the time I finished reading I found it overwhelming, and thought perhaps I should share it. May Allah guide us all to the right path. Amiin Qiso dhab ah « on: January 02, 2007, 09:40:57 PM » -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Malik Ibn Dinar Magaaladu waa Medina, meeshuna waa Masaajidka Nabiga (Naxariis iyo nabad galyo korkiisa ha ahaato), waa xalaqad diinta lagu barto oo ay fadhiyaan arday aad u fara badani. Ardaydu waxa ay sugayaan sheekhoodii. Sheekhu maanta waa uu soo habsaamay, ardayduna waxa ay ka warwarsan yihiin soo daahida sheekhooda. Waxoogaay markii ay sugayeen ayuu sheekhii yimid isaga oo ay ka muuqato haybadii iyo karaamadii culimada saalixiinta ah lagu yiqiinay. Meeshii loogu talagalay ayuu fadhiisatay, salaan ka dibna wuxuu bilaabay hadalkiisii. Wuxuu yidhi "walaalayaal in badan ayaan masaajidkan idiinku dhigayay qaybaha kala duwan ee culuumta Islaamka. Maantase waxa aan doonayaa in halkii aynu casharka ka qaadan jirnay aan idinla wadaago qayb ka mida nolosha sheekhiinan idin hor fadhiya. Waxaan rajaynayaa in ay cibro idiin noqoto. Noloshaydii ****** Waxaan ku noolaan jiray Ciraaq. Ma aanan ahayn qof toosan. Xumaan oo dhan ayaanan faraha kula jiray. Waxaan ahaa nin aan wax naxariis ahi qalbigiisa ku jirin. Dadkoo dhami way i necbaayeen. Khamriga ayaan cabi jiray. Diinta waan ka fogaa, Salaadna haba sheegin. Maalin maalmaha ka mida ayaan magaalada u soo dhaadhacay, sidii caadadaydu ahayd anigoo suuqa dhex wareegaya ayaa waxa aan sheeda ka arkay laba nin oo is jiid jiidanaya. Labada nin midkood waxa uu ahaa nin nicmo ka muuqato oo maalqabeen ah, halka ka kale ay ka muuqatay baahi iyo duruuf adagi. Kan miskiinka ahi jilbaha ayuu ku taagnaa waanu baryootamayay, wuxuu ku ooyayay ninka maalqabeenka ah, halka ka maalqabeenka ahi uu miskiinka ku qaylinayay. Waxa aan ku soo dhawaaday halkii ay labada nin isku haysteen si aan bal u ogaado sida ay wax u jiraan. Waxaan waydiiyay in ay bal iiga waramaan waxa ay isku haystaan. Ii soo ducee Waxa hadalkii bilaabay maalqabeenkii wuxa uu ii sheegay in ninkan miskiinka ah uu 7 dirham sanad ka hor amaahiyay laakiin ilaa iminka uu u soo gudi la yahay daynkaas. Wuxuu yidhi "ninkani muddo ayuu iga dhuumanayay laakiin maanta ayaan qabtay waxa aanan ka qaatay todobadadii dirham ee aan ku lahaa ". Miskiinkii ayaan eegay waxanan waydiiyay bal isna in uu dhiniicsa ii sheego sida ay wax u jiraan. Miskiinkii ma dafirin in daynkaas lagu leeyahay laakiin waxa uu ii sheegay in aanu haysan wax aduun ah oo uu ku gudo daynkaas lagu leeyahay, lacagtan yar ee uu ninkani xooga kaga qaadayna waxa uu yidhi waxa weeye 7 dirham oo uu doonayo in uu caano ugu soo iibiyo gabdho yar yar oo uu dhalay oo ay baahi hayso. Halkaa marka ay sheekadii marayso ayaan ka codsaday ninkii maalqabeenka ahaa in uu miskiinka u soo celiyo lacgata uu ka qaaday uuna ka sugo daynkaas inta uu miskiinku wax ka helayo. Maalqabeenkii arinkaas ma cajabin waanu iga diiday . Waan xanaaqay, dhulka ayaanan ku tuuray maalqabeenkii. Xoogg ayaan gacantaydda jeebkiisa ku galiyay waxaanan ka soo saaray lacagtii uu xoogga uga qaaday miskiinka. Lacgtii ayaan miskiinkii gacanta ka galiyay waxaanan ku idhi "orod oo caruurtaada caanaha u raadso". Miskiinkii lacagtii ayuu qaatay isaga oo ay farxad wayni wajigiisa ka muuqato, wuxuu bilaabay in uu ii mahadnaqo. Markuu sii dhaqaaqayay ayaan ku idhi "caawa marka ay caruurtaadu caanaha cabaan.ha ilaawina in aad ii soo duceeysaan." Nin Khariban yaa gabadhiisa siin Maalintii xigtay ayaa qalbigayga waxa la galiyay in aan guursado. Laakiin yaa gabadh u guurinaya nin khariban sidayda oo kale. Waxa ii soo baxaday in aanu jirin qof gabadhiisa ii aroosayaa, sidaa daraadeed waxa aan tagay suuqii adoomaha lagu iibin jiray, gabadh Muslimad ah oo adoona ayaan ka soo iibsaday, gabadhii waan xoreeyay ka dibna iyadii ayaan guursaday. Gabadhii waxa uu Alle iiga dhigay mid khayr qabta. Waxa ay i baratay salaadii iyo wanaag oo dhan. Mudo yar gudaheed ayay nolashaydii is badashay, waxaanan faraha kala baxay xumaantii aan ku dhex jiray oo dhan. Waxa uu Alle reerkaygii ku irsaaqay gabadh. Jacaylka aanu u qabno gabadhaasi waxa uu ahaa mid aan xad laahyn.. Habayn habaynada ka mida iyada oo ila ciyaaraysa ayaa gabadhii lagu soo booday. Dhabtayda ayay ku dhacday wax yar ka dibna tii Alle ayaa u timid oo waa ay dhimatay. Musiibadani waa ay igu cuslaatay. Muddo ayaa waxa habayn iyo maalinba maskaxdayda ku wareegayay sawirkii gabadhayda. Meel kasta oo aan aqalka ka eegoba waxa iiga muuqanaysay gabadhaydii Faadumo. Habayn habaynada ka midda ayuu arinkani iga gaadhay meel culus oo aanan qaadi Karin , waxa aana goostay in aan habaynkaas oo dhan khamri cabo ilaa aan ka dhimanayo. Sidii aan khamrigii u cabayay ayaan dhacay, waxa aanan ku riyooday riyo cajiib ah, riyaadaas oo badashay nolashaydii oo dhan. Aabo goormaad toobad keeni Waxa aan ku riyooday aniga oo dhintay, oo la i aasay, oo uu qiyaamihii kacay dadkii oo dhan qubuurihii laga soo saaray, qof kastana uu dhinac u cararyo. Waxa aan eegay dhabarkayga waxa aanan ku arkay mas wayn oo dab igu afuufaya. Waan ka cararay laakiin maskii igama hadhin. Waxaabad mooodaa in aniga la ii soo diray. Sidii aan u cararayay ayaa anigoo daalay waxa iga soo hor baxay buur wayn. Buurta waxa ka baxayay dariiqyo yar yar oo ay taagnaayen caruur yar yari. Markii ay caruurtii i arkeen ayay mar kaliya dhawaaqeen oo ay yidheehdeen, Faadumooy! Faadumooy! Faadumooy kaalay eeg eeg aabahaa. Gabadhaydii markii ay aragtay ayay gacanta u taagatay maskii. Maskii markiiba waa uu istaagay waanu iga hadhay. Gabadhaydii way ii timid gacanta ayayna i qabatay iyadoo leh aabo : "miyaanay u dhawaanay qalbiyadii kuwii Alle rumeeyay in ay Alle u khushuucaan." Halkaas marka ay marayso ayaan ka soo booday riyadii. Waxa aan maqalay eedaankii salaada faajarka. Inta aan toobad keeenay oo aan maydhay ayaan tagay Masaajidka. Masaajidka aan tagay Iimam Shaafici ayaa tujinayay. Salaadii iimaamku waxa uu nagu tujiyay aayadii ay gabadhaydu akhrinaysay markii aan riyoonayay. Waan khushuucay waxaanan hoosta iskaga idhi adaa laguu jeedaa Maalikoow. Salaadii markii laga baxay ayuu Imaam Shaafici wuxu bilaabay in uu fasiro ayadahaas uu akhriyay. Markii aan ka soo noqday Masaajidkii ee aan reerkaygii u soo noqday ayaa waxa aan ku idhi xaaskaygii "Alaabta inoo xidhxidh waxa aynu u guuraynaa magaalada Madina. Waxa aan bilaabay in aad diinta barto ka dibna sidaas baanan ku noqday Sheekhan maanta idin hor fadhiya." Sheekadani waa sheeko dhab ah. Sheekha ka sheekaynayana waxa u ahaa iimaamka wayn ee la odhan jiray Malik Ibn Diinaar". Waxa aan rajayn in ay inteena akhriday ay waano u noqoto. Mahadsanidiin
