  1. Hibo, I was wondering what the heck you're doing in Pakistan? Girl, do you work for the UN or something?
  2. Caveman that is Good for the Guys! I'm seeking a guy ABROAD myself too!
  3. Salamu alaikum, And MashAllah, may all our goals come true! BTW Somealien, the Prophet's Bibliography is so good, I'm reading it the second time. For this Ramadan, I hope to pray the taraawih as much as I can, read a surah a day, and go to more Islamic study groups, and make the connections with my family and relatives stronger.
  4. SCHOOL IS ALL GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD! NA'MEAN
  5. Hello, You know one thing I learned recently is that there live amongst us a group of radical ethinically Somali group that claim to not be from Somalia, they say they are from a one city(now supposedly a country)that has its own flag.Hello! what happened to the blue flag with the white star? Further more they want the United Nations to acknowlegde that they are an independent country. What the heck?What normal person is going to recognize one city located in Somalia to become its own COUNTRY! Come on Somalis, let's all say that our country is SOmalia and that we are Somalis period. Peace, Peace and mo' Peace!
  6. looooooooooooooooooooooooooool! I can't believe I missed that race on Friday! Thanks Fartun
  7. Warya Dude if you want to go live in Ethiopia or Kenya no one is stopping you. I perfer to live in Somalia, in fact in badiyo. If the four buildings in Ethiopia habash stinkys and Kenya ugali eaters are so great to the lives of their people they wouldn't be imigrating to countries like Somalia and especially the United States.
  8. Cawralo all leaders of any muslim country sided with the gaalo, the truth is that's where they got the dough, na'mean. Secondly, you are a brainwashed ***** , may I add. Ngonge looks like school was a waste of time for you since you are denying the superior inteligence of our Somali people.

  11. IL Capo when you said the majority live under constant terror from their own kind and as long as there is no peace and stability somalia will never be better off. Are you living in Somalia now? Your location says 'somewhere in Atlanta' not in Somalia. So you don't really know the present situation.I'm not denying that there is all good their but believe me Somalia is better of without the financial aid of America and Europe to corrupt us even more. Viking you said, Are taxes paid in order to sustain a public service? Is there a public service? Let me tell you if their is one thing I hate about the 'developed world' is paying taxes.I don't care who it goes to or who it doesn't but if I worked for my paycheck, no one should take about any money from MY CHECK! Somalia's economy is flourishing now without the help of so called taxes because we have no central gov't or a Capitalism system of taking our money from our businesses by Somalis overseas sending money over there.
  12. I believe that Somalia is flourishing from the ashes of the civil war because we no longer have a central gov't. There are 10 competitive telephone services in Somali right now, and the services ther are much better than neighboring Kenya and Ethiopia. There is a pasta factory, plastic factory, as well as a new Coca Cola factory, and many more. The economy of Somalia is much better now than some developing nations. I read somewhere that in the 70's between Africa and Asia, Asia was the poorer continent.However a study done in 1998 showed that Africa was poorer than Asia. The reason was mainly because Africa received more foreign aid from western nations. Somalia doesn't receive any foreign aid, and the people of Somalia have bravely shown that they can rebuild their land without the help of 5 oday warlords who are competing to get access to foreign aid money. I say that Somalia is better without a central gov't.If anything, Somalia should have some type of Islamic gov't that plays a central role.
  13. We hear and heard it all the time in CNN, MSNBC, and FOX news, that Saddam Hussein was a bad guy. We heard that Saddam Hussein was a brutal dictator who poisoned gased his own people.Bush said that he was a evil man and that the world is much safer now. Well, although he did kill his own people, that was back in the 80's when he was a puppet American hegemony. But I asked myself, why was there such a strong need to get rid of one man? I finally came to the conclusion that Saddam Hussein scared the hair off western powers, not because he had wmd but because he gave the muslims in the world a backbone. He was the only arab leader who speaked out against the wrongdoing of the west against muslim lands. I believe he was a strong leader, he even welcomed Somali refugees to Iraq.In fact, I heard from some Iraqis that before Saddam's rule, the British colonists in that country where much hated by the Iraqis because they treated them so badly. I am not going to believe someone is evil because some anchorman said so, I choose to think for myself and come to my own conclusion. Salaamu alaikum w.w.b

  16. Just check these beautiful images of Mogadishu starting in 1882.
  17. LoL Darman, your dad did the right thing! Anyways, I had a little racial encounter once at this job I worked at.It was this summer, and although I have a second job, I got this other on call job which I used to work at before.I accepted the call, needing to make a few bucks. So, I go there, the only black people their is this sweet lady from Camaroon, and me.The place is full of hippy red-neck middle aged women. Anyways, since I worked here before, I knew what to do.It was a warehouse type job, and my job was basically to detrash the plastic off the clothes, cut up boxes and put sizing stripe on some clothes. When I came in the manager told me to start doing something, one of the ladies said you can detrash. I happily agreed.I then noticed the middle-age white ladies weren't doing any intense work like detrashing which really pained my arms, but they were simply putting sizing stripes on shirts.In fact it was just me the the other African lady who were doing the intense work. So when I got done detrashing my fourth rack of clothes, I wanted to do what they were doing to rest a bit, but as soon as I moved to their table one of them said..'ooh, you have to also remove those hangers on those pants' Pissed off and tired, I nicely agreed again.This time, my blood boiled a bit and I was determined not to be second classed.When I got done with the that, I picked up a box so I could open it and start sizing it, when one lady said,' go detrash that other rack'. I looked at her firmly and said: look, I'm not going to detrash that rack, I'm going to size,I've been here for 4 friggin hours and my arms are tired.The look on her face was utter shock and she in aw replied, 'ok, sure' I got what I wanted. I learned one important thing I always knew and that is never get punked or be treated like a second class citizen.
  18. Hello, Ok, let me tell you straight that I'm 5'4! I'm the shortest person in my family.I never thought I was short, until one day I went to the Hospital for a physical.When they measured my height, I remember the nurse smirkingly saying that I'm 'underaverage'. Woah, that blew me away, I always thought I was tall! But turns out, since I lived near short Chinese people, I became conditioned to um feel taller. But no! Then, I started rocking little pick me up high pumps and I had my nose up there for a while.Then I got tired of it, so this summer I apparently only go for dacas(trust me, once you start you wouldn't go back). However, my family is now severly distressed that well I'm SHORT..one member of my family insisted that I stop wearing my signature dacas..not over my so-called 'underaverage' height, and again I said NOPE! I'm proud to be 5'4 and I'm not going to take Vita pills to try to increase my height:) So guys, what do you think about my little distressing dupsey.Has anything like that happened to you,perhaps you were too tall like a tree or something..Just give me the short side of it
  19. There comes a time when we reach a point in our lives that seems to make us stuck at one place..I think. Well, I think that point is when a person gives up praying, and feels no guilt or worry when commiting something that is Haraam. What causes a person to disobey Ar-Rahman? I really am trying to figure this out.
  20. Hey Darman!! Indian Ocean is actually a new restaurant so it's not well known yet, but it's located 13th and 11th street. Take Franklin going to MPLS, when you see 11th street make a right, go over the brigde a little bit, and when you see 13th st. pass the little intersection alittle and on your right side. Park your car in the parrellel parking in front of the restaurant(Parking will say to park for 30 mins. but you can park however long you want)And if you can't find it ask ppl around that place.
  21. Suicide is haraam. In Akhirah, the person who kills themselves for example by poison will drink a worst type of poison forever, same with the person who stabs themselves..they'll do that forever.Xuux, may Allah not take us to hell. I personally believe that as a human being, if all you value is taken away by force, you'll lose all fear and try to do just about anything.Sometimes I wish there was a better way for those muslims to defend themselves, but I guess that's how they can fight back.But, also we all have to remember that Allah is our only help. Remember the prophet Ayyub, he faced every type of hardship, he lost all his wealth, property, family, friends, and he got a horrible skin disease but he was patient..once he took this worm out of his skin and thanked Allah for creating them.Then he finally made this prayer: "Truly adversity has afflicted me and You are Most Merciful of all who show mercy."(21:83) Allah accepted his prayer, and he got his life back. Also the prophet Muhammad(saw), him and his followers suffered many years of great pain, and hunger, many early followers of the Prophet wear martyered but in the end they won and Islam was able to take a strong base in Saudi Arabia to this day, alhamdulilah. So as muslims we have to be patient, and know that the help of Allah is always near.These days the world might seem to us muslims that muslims are losing a type of war, and I'll admit some muslims are not perfect but Islam is always perfect. But, muslims are not losing, muslims are coming back to true Islam. The best way to win a war is with the Heart, not physical combat, and I see it everyday that muslims are more devout in their deen, alhamdulilah.
  22. I think the best restaurant in Minnesota is YES..Indian Ocean..Very clean..good service!
  23. Do us a favor and take some Advil and live with it okay!
