Hadrawi - hmm... A very talented poet i must say, but what else? I think we can leave him in there for the time being simply because of his immense wealth of literature (though compared to many others he will be considered a lightweight) and his peace initiatives in Somalia!

Thank you for the title idea, GJ!

^^IT IS! Banning those leaves will see the return of minds currently helf in captivity to their rightful owners!

As of late, many people have humbly or haughtily carried the Somali name - some in a dignified manner and for laudable causes that affected millions and won many hearts, and others for ignoble causes that either brought about humiliation. The praiseworth former group will always be remembered in the colourful pages of Somali history, whereas the loathsome latter will meet or will have met an ignominious end. Who should and shouldn't be in the Somali hall of fame. Name one person from the past or present that should definitely be included in the Somali Hall of Fame and One person that should be included in the Somali Hall of Shame I will state the most obvious - Hall of Fame - Sayyid M A Hassan Hall of Shame - Abdullahi Yusuf

Somalis could do anything with passports man. I was in Dubai last summer when an article appeared claiming that Somalis were the rated NO 1 for smugglnig and forgeries - go figure!

Lool So this is how everyone was when they joined! Subxanallah! This was in 2004 when i joined this place. It sort of makes me think of the glory of those gone years - Here i am thinking back of the good old days, wistfully lamenting at the lost candour of youth! NG, ma isku maalin beynu soo galnay meeshan ba'day?

London has become a home away from home for many I guess! Hence the terminology

Ethopian Conspiracy?? No? I know that they were both on their way to London, laakiin Maxaa labadooda isku diyaarad wada saaray, isku wakhtina ka dhigay? tolow miyaa laysu keenayey... Walle waa ba rag hadey wada hadleen oo aysan sidii candhabuurihii kala jeensan iyagoo jiqilada buuraya!

Jazakallah Brother Urban... I will tro to learn it insha-Allah!

MS, Great Video sxb. I like your optimism. You mentioned the division of power within the different Somali tribes and suggested: 75% to the Big Three and the remaining 25% to other clans. Is that really a good suggestion? Wouldn't these "other" clans now want their own cut too? p.s great to see that you've clarified that you're Somali and MS is a pseudonym, some people are already thinking otherwise.

I want to share with you a Dua which I have learned which is of immense value to any Muslim. If you lose anything or a calamity befalls you, then say Allahuma ajirnii fi Musibatii wa Akhlifnii khayran minhaa, and surely Allah will open doors for you and replace your loss with something much better insha-Allah. Also, every day after fajar and After Maghrib one should say Bismillahi-l-ladii laa yadurru maca ismihii shey un fil ardi walaa fi samaa'i wahuwa-s-samiicul caliim and you are under Allah's protection against everything. Share Dua's you have learned, so we can all learn.

Dulqarnayn, Insha-Allah i will get some pictures of that peak, mise waxaad ka hadleysaa professional photos?

Jacaylbaro, waxaan filayaa inaad adigu safka hore ku jirtid, mise taasi waa gaf oo koobkaad u miliqsaneysaa?

good answers - but they are just that! Soomaalidu waa isma dhaantiyo dhasheed wada madax adag. Like the Abwaan said 'Dubkoodan sare waxaa ku sii xiga diir kaloo adage'

Originally posted by NGONGE: LX, Not the same, is it? UD is challenging the man's argument whilst Marc wants to limit UD's choices (by calling for a ban). Do you believe you have the RIGHT to make the WRONG choices? Do you think someone else should decide what's right and what's wrong for you? (looks like we're going down a different and more interesting path now). NG, by calling for a ban, isn't it, by all means, his prerogative to do so? As for choices, whether you came to a decision through a conscious deliberation or not, it surely must be your right to make a wrong or a right choice - conscious deliberations of the choice making process imply a higher a propbility of making the right choice, which is what we want to make eventually. Now this questions, why would one deliberately make a wrong choice unless there is some sort of a benefit? Could this still be called a wrong choice
