you understand where he's coming from? hmmm...when did condoning rape become acceptable? or are we just in the habit of standing behind Imams regardless of whether what they preach is unislamic or not?

Do "Islamic militias" commit war crimes? yes

I think Somalis have too much pride. For no reason. at all.

Originally posted by Endeavour: Finally you found yourself the perfect brother. Handsome young charismatic pious and even a great smile that will make you melt You love him he loves you. Your family loves him , the one you have been searching for all your life . You finally found him ( or he found you whatever the case maybe). Here at your feet is the 'golden man'. Allah blessed him with both akhlaaq and deen. Too good to be true! He thinks you are the girl he has been looking for. Things go smooth no bumps along the way. You both decide this is it, marriage next. He expects nothing form you other than to be a stay home mum. He wishes you stay home and not work , look after him and his children. What would you do? Freak out yell I did not finish a four year degree to be a stay home mum . Or would you kindly keep quite be happy you find a wonderful brother. So sisters my question is how many of you would drop their careers for the golden boy and how many of you will refuse to be a stay home mum. BTW there is nothing wrong with being a stay home mum. No stress carefree life , look pretty all day since you have all the time in the world why not turn to your diin? I mean there are advantages and disadvantages both ways right? So what would you do? if your future spouse demands you will not work full-time or part-time. And out of curiousty how many brothers will demand their wives stay home? There are several issues to be determined here: why does he want a stay-at-home mom? If he loves you so, and you wanted to work or pursue education, would he be opposed? Would he leave you if you still wanted to pursue work or education? Obviously, if he wants me to stay at home just so i can feed him and his kids, he doesn't need me...he needs a damn maid Also, he would not be the so-called "golden" boy But more of the overbearing, overcontrolling, sexist type.

^Nice signature.

I've heard of Somalis attending Harvard. What's the big deal?

HEy, I don't hate myself at all. In fact, I am able to embrace the good aspects of the culture, and being exposed to other cultures, I decided to leave behind the bad ones. But, let me ask you a question? Why is the country in the state that it is today ha? What divided (and continues to divide) our country? Clanism. And now you want to introduce Islamic rule over the country through militant means? Pardon my skeptism, I'm just looking at history and pattern here.

Instead of cooking a nice meal for him to kick the stinking Ethiopians from our country, you are laughing at him! Shame on you! :mad: I don't get what Jihad..or Islam for that matter has anything to do with border disputes? lol

^ lol..snap. I watched the first 20 minutes of the game, and they were not playing that well...sooner or later, they will go home as losers..just you wait!

Thanks for the early comic relief! Appreciate it. My dear sister, it seems to me your ignorance about the Islamic movement in our home country surpasses over the ignorance of those talking-heads in Washington. You need to study the nits and grits of the whole issue, and then come here to comment your views as to how you deduce everything from the main picture we discuss of here. We can't educate you for an issue that we are so bussy of with passion and support, especially when you dare to insult it, as you did in the above. May Allah guide you, sweet and astrayed sister of us. (By the way, don't get offended, for indeed I was warned not to offend our charming girls) Hey, if I'm astrayed because I think they are just another warlord with their own cause, then I'm glad I am one. I know what Islam is, brother. Don't think I have no faith. I just don't have faith in an unorganized militant group waving the banner of Islam. Trust me, just because they kicked the other warlords out does not make them any less unorganized. Let's just wait and see what they do next. lol

The emperor..Are you of the Court of Islamic bla bla bla...why are you so defensive? Don't get so worked up over little things, ha. Breathe, brother. I just don't understand why so many Somalis are supporting this group of rebels. Is it because they carry the banner of Islam (even if they carry on the same absurdities as the other warlords)? Exactly what are their credentials? why are Somalis following these group of warlords blindly? I just don't get it. But then again, I can never really understand Somalis...go figure!

England ain't ish....I just hope that Trinidad& Tobago can whoop their a$$.

Dude...the Germans really had me off my seat. Dang!! That was a crazy game.

ooooh, Spain did good!! I think they will be in my top 5 teams, seeing as how I haven't picked a team yet. One eye on Italia. I really wanted a strong African team to root for, but not this WC, I guess. If Brazil makes it to the finals, I will root for the underdog, which ever team that may be.

Originally posted by MC Xamar: quote:Originally posted by Reality Check: Only Allah gives the order of what is good/forbidden..not a bunch of lunatic rebels with AKA47s who have no inkling of the concept of Islam. Yeah, well, someone on earth needs to enforce Allah's order, right? We don't just all do what we want and then wait for the Judgement Day. If the courts shut down the theaters because of the porn movies, I'm all for it. Doesn't matter if they play soccer games as well. The courts? Don't let the title fool you. It's a bunch of lawless rebels killing each other like the ones before them. I rather not have some crazies tell me what to do. I don't know about you, though.

Marriage is not as pretty as some of you are describing it to be. The reality is that over half of the marriages are doomed to fail. And the ones that stay married, some are not even happy in it, especially out here in the west. I can count with one hand how many happy marriages I know about in the Somali community. Just ONE!! Marriage is an obligation? As in, the longer one stays unmarried, the more sin? C'mon now, show me some proof (that is - if you even can).

By all means, go back to Somalia. Personally, I'm interested in living a good life. And right now, that is abroad. Somalia has nothing to offer me. Actually, it's to the contrary. I have alot to offer to Somalia, however, I don't know how I can ever survive there seeing the present and consistent condition the nation is in. Sad, but true.

Unless u want alot of tornment in the hereafter. Only Allah gives the order of what is good/forbidden..not a bunch of lunatic rebels with AKA47s who have no inkling of the concept of Islam. Anyway, what the hell is going in Somalia..if its not one thing, it's the other. Sad, really!
