Waa just firm words, they are not going anywhere, wuu yaar jiibodey half way through his speech. Naad you chat rubbish. Ciida isku roog

JB, they are also launching their Islamic banking in Dubia, I think the aim is by end of summer. Mashallah to them (don't want innan (or others) cawriyo)

^^WHo TOLD YOU waad soo daafi kaarta!! :mad: Get out, out [Gene qabyo style shouting- OUT]

Xidigo JB (Naden has never openly said so) is a None-Muslim and openly mocks religion (all of them as an atheist) anything he says is therefore deemed as mockary and insult. His intent is clear and does not require benefit of doubt. Marx on the other hand is a Muslim, he does deserve benefit of doubt (which is a concept only used for fellow Muslims) you are barking up the wrong tree my dear, on what platform can you compare the opinion of an atheist and a Muslim on religion. Ngonge :rolleyes:

Booho the victim card comes out. Marx you are/ may be more knowledgeable than me or others, and may be a better more aware Muslim. Nevertheless regardless of how you take it, "my so called righteous arrogance" in this topic is my opinion. Clearly you did not expect everyone to agree with you, my opinion is that the objection is at best based on superficiality, because these women are embarrassing “us”. I cannot judge you on your intentions, because I did not know them, and I certainly had no intention to make you FEEL like some kind of apostle. I just told you, that you don't have a leg to stand on. No one issued a fatwa or CAN have a monoploy in Islamic knowledge, but when you err as in this case, you cannot be mad at those trying to pull you back.

LOOL @ Waa in kisto lacag xamaalada kuugu guntantahey. You guys should just become your husbands PA, manage everything as you like, statements and all, have a little table in the "office" at home to manage your affairs in a joint account. You are entitled to maintenance in any case.

^^^Clearly shows ME team is just :rolleyes: Nacasnimaad laa faadiso PLZ. Nuune; I'm not game, please find someone else.

The appropriate way to go to the mosque was to walk slowly and with purpose at the sounding of the azan, or call to prayer, it said. I could not agree more, people should head to the mosque when they hear the athan, and then sit in the mosque doing their duas till the iqamah. But people often stay at home or work, and then run, knocking everyone over on the way there to join the first rakah before the ruukuc!

^^^You have more girls than men for once. waax kaal ayaad uula jeedan. You as the coach just want to be given time (90mins) to stare at women run around while having the perfect excuse. Waan ku gaartey. Waar iga saar your team!

^^^I was a nomad kid, dawacad iyo warabe ayan eryaan jirey, but we respected them for their cunning ways and made stories about it.

Hey girls!! I cannot read fiction, it seems pointless. But I just joined a book club (friday) to open my mind a little. The first book they gave me is called The child Garden by Geoff Ryman, it is fantasy. Out of this world! I'm only on page 280, waa crazy and bizzar, a human women lesbian who is in love with a female polar bear in a society were being a lesbian gets you sent to a clinic to be cured is the main character. :eek: I think I'm stop reading it. Faheema! LOOOOOL @ the sign! yeah I remember, Who was suppose to re-book awal?? Blessed I echo Val; Explain please! LOL Buuxo and Malika, I need you'll to teach me to wear that think without poking my eyes out- I'm too fuuleyaad. Even worse when I laugh (and I laugh a lot) I cry, so it would go all messy nooh.

^^^maaxaad animales-kaa uu ceyesa?? *I just feel like sticky up for the xayawanka On the topic; Inshallah khyire for them people, I hope for better times ahead for them.

Somalia's Islamist group, al-Shabab, has taken over the city of Baidoa, one of the last strongholds of the transitional government and the seat of parliament. They say they will introduce Sharia law in the city. Marian Zeila, chairperson of the Somali Media Women's Association, based in the city, give her views on the takeover. I'm concerned that the al-Shabab militants will prevent me from carrying out the work I do here in Baidoa - fighting gender-based violence. The fact that al-Shabab are bringing in Sharia law doesn't really worry me. Sharia law is a part of Islam, it's in the Koran. But it's their interpretation of the law that I disagree with. They are turning Islam into a harsh religion, which I don't believe it actually is. My organisation is trying to empower women who suffer domestic violence - and I don't think al-Shabbab will like us encouraging women to speak out. I am not angry with them yet, but I do wonder what effect their presence will have on the women of Baidoa. From talking to other women, it's my impression that civil society groups here are not happy with al-Shabab. I haven't been to work since al-Shabab took over Baidoa. Everything seems calm at the moment, but I plan to stay at home for another four days until I can be sure that it's safe to go to work. I did go out briefly today to the centre of town to do some shopping. I would say that today the atmosphere in Baidoa is relatively good - I saw women and children out in the streets, they were walking around freely. I am not afraid of al-Shabab and I don't think people in Baidoa fear them. I saw members of al-Shabab around town carrying guns today. They look incredibly young. I know that they have encouraged teenagers in Baidoa to join their movement, but they are not forcing anyone. People working for the transitional government in Baidoa are staying indoors. Al-Shabab have promised they will not harm them, but it remains to be seen whether this is the case. While the transitional government was in charge there was insecurity in Baidoa, they were unable to protect civilians. At least the al-Shabab have restored stability - for the time being. I am 23 and I got married just one month ago. If things stay calm in Baidoa, my husband and I will stay here. But we want to wait and see how this goes. Nobody knows what al-Shabab are planning to do. BBC

Iran's president has responded to an overture by the new US president by demanding an apology for past US "crimes" committed against Iran. The US "stood against the Iranian people in the past 60 years," Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said during an address in the western region of Khermenshah. "Those who speak of change must apologise to the Iranian people and try to repair their past crimes," he said. President Obama has offered to extend a hand if Iran "unclenched its fist". President Barack Obama discussed the possibility of a softening of US policy towards Iran in an interview recorded with a Saudi-owned Arabic TV network on Monday. 'Strong tirade' The Iranian president welcomed the possibility of US change, but said: "When they say 'we want to make changes', change can happen in two ways". "First is a fundamental and effective change... The second ... is a change of tactics. It is very clear that, if the meaning of change is the second one, this will soon be revealed," he said. The remarks are the first Iranian comment on the US since Mr Obama took office eight days ago. The BBC's Jon Leyne in Tehran describes it as one of Mr Ahmadinejad's strongest tirades against the US. Our correspondent says we may see twists and turns out of Iran as its leaders work out whether Mr Obama is offering real changes and whether they are prepared to offer real changes in return. While he was playing to the crowd, adds our correspondent, he could also be staking out his position ahead of Iran's presidential elections in June. Mr Ahmadinejad congratulated Mr Obama after his election in November but the message was criticised in Iran and received a cool response from Mr Obama. Nuclear issue Mr Ahmadinejad also attacked US support for Israel and called on Mr Obama to withdraw US troops from their bases around the world. "If you talk about change it must put an end to the US military presence in the world, withdraw your troops and take them back inside your borders." The US should "stop interfering in other people's affairs," he said. "If someone wants to talk with us in the language that [George W] Bush used... even if he uses new words, our response will be the same that we gave to Bush during the past years". Relations between Washington and Tehran reached new lows in recent years over attempts by the US and its allies in the United Nations to curtail Iran's nuclear programme over fears it is trying to build nuclear weapons. Tehran says its programme is to develop civilian nuclear power only. The new US ambassador to the UN, Susan Rice, said on Monday that she was looking forward to "vigorous diplomacy that includes direct diplomacy with Iran". The US broke off diplomatic ties with Iran in 1979, after students stormed the US embassy in Tehran after the Islamist revolution overthrew the US-backed Shah. BBC

^^Loool indeed shape up! Scholars such as Dr. Abu Aminah Bilal Philips in his talk "Removing the veil." (Youtube it] argues that colours and patterns (i.e. the above mentioned hadith) is relative to the environment one lives in. He goes on to explain that in Saudi Arabia a women should NOT go out in brightly coloured clothes/ hijaabs, as this is not the custom of Saudi women who wear black, hence she will stand out. On the other hand, if a woman went to Malaysia [or Somalia or the UK I would add] (where it is customary for the women to wear floral fabrics in various colours or wear colours) and wore black she would be drawing more attention as the odd one out. Allahu a’lam but this is the popular view adopted by the wider scholars of today. As for the topic; my final words on it is that: These colourful Somali style hijabs fulfill the conditions of hijab; As explained by Ibn Katheer the jilbaab (which is what Somali women wear) is in effect a much large piece of cloth, much larger than the ladies’ usual head scraf). This was also the view of the companion Ibn Masood and a number of others including Al-Hassan Al-Basri, Qataadah, Ibraheem An-Nakhai and others). Al-Qurtubi stated that: "The correct view is that the jilbaab is a cloth which covers the complete outer body." Therefore we have no room to mock them. W Salam and if anyone got offended, waa caadii you won't die as result , just kidding, no hard feelings.
