^^^ Couldn't agree more... but our men don't appreciate us... when we suport them sista... they go around and marry another? When they supported us we didin't abandon them .. for another... we stayed with them, reared their children.......and served them...so why can't they do the same when we feed them?

^^^^^... We call a brotha who looks after his appearance high maintainance, and the Duflaha...Ure...wat do u gurls want? I think he is doing wat any man in his shoes would do.. he wants to impress the sista...and is genuine so he is leaving her a shoe that speaks for itself... I am a working man who has a word, and I mean business"

Besbaaso: I think the reason we are attracting to bad guys is because, those nice brothas seem flawless and its scarry, because.. they gotta have faults.. somewhere. I mean think of it.. u meet this guy and he is so sweet...so good... rn't u gonna wonder if he is a psycho behind doors? Ofcourse....so u might as well deal with this bad guy whose faults are out...than one with a worst flaw

Warsameh: I am really confused by this trinity of yours and how it operates... my christian friends tried it but to no avail... since u r somali... Plzz try to explain to me in Somali..so that I have a better understanding how that system works? Coz to me, u r saying the father , the son and the holy spirit are one? Yes did I get even that part right...so how can three things become one thing? And if da case is 3 in 1, than surely, the son is as important as the father coz they play parts of the same ingredient?.... As for you not being a somali.. I know u r...but ur ignorance to my questions rather... makes me question ur sincerity....why don't u answer them? As for the Quranic Suras When allah revealed a surah, and people misinterpretted it as u are doing, he revealed another one which is much clearer to remove any kind of misguidance... that is what my brotha Nur means to say.

A young wife sat on a sofa on a hot humid day, drinking iced tea and visiting with her Mother. As they talked about life, about marriage, about the responsibilities of life and the obligations of adulthood, the mother clinked the ice cubes in her glass thoughtfully and turned a clear, sober glance upon her daughter. "Don't forget your girlfriends," she advised. Swirling the tea leaves to the bottom of her glass. "They'll be more important as you get older. No matter how much you love your husband, no matter how much you love the children you'll have, you are still going to need girlfriends. Remember to go places with them now and then; do things with them. And remember that "girlfriends" are not only your friends, but your sisters, your daughters, and other relatives too. You'll need other women. Women always do. What a funny piece of advice,' the young woman thought. 'Haven't I just gotten married? Haven't I just joined the couple-world? I'm now a married woman, for goodness sake, a grownup, not a young girl who needs girlfriends! Surely my husband and the family we'll start will be all I need to make my life worthwhile!' But she listened to her Mother; she kept contact with her Girlfriends And made more each year. As the years tumbled by, one after another, she gradually came to understand that her Mom really knew what she was talking about. As time and nature work their changes and their mysteries upon a woman, girlfriends are the mainstays of her life. After 50 years of living in this world, here is what I know about girlfriends: Girlfriends bring you chicken curry and scrub your bathroom when you Need help. Girlfriends keep your children and keep your secrets. Girlfriends give advice when you ask for it. Sometimes you take it, sometimes you don't. Girlfriends don't always tell you that you're right, but they're Usually honest. Girlfriends still love you, even when they don't agree with your choices. Girlfriends laugh with you, and you don't need canned jokes to start The laughter. Girlfriends pull you out of jams. Girlfriends help you get out of bad relationships. Girlfriends help you look for a new apartment, help you pack, and help You move. Girlfriends will give a party for your son or daughter when they get Married or have a baby, in whichever order that comes! Girlfriends are there for you, in an instant and when the hard times come. Girlfriends listen when you lose a job or a friend. Girlfriends listen when your children break your heart. Girlfriends listen when your parents' minds and bodies fail. Girlfriends support you when the men in your life let you down. Girlfriends help you pick up the pieces when men pack up and go. Girlfriends rejoice at what makes you happy, and are ready to go out And kill what makes you unhappy. Times passes. Life happens. Distance separates. Children grow up. Love waxes and wanes. Hearts break. Careers end. Jobs come and go. Parents die. Colleagues forget favours. Men don't call when they say they will. BUT girlfriends are there, no matter how much time and how many miles Are between you. A girlfriend is never farther away than needing her can reach.

Nur: Walaalkiis diinta ka sokow qofka waa in uusan waalidkiisa wax kale ku doorsanin. Qofkan maanta aad aragtay oo aad waalidkaa ku qilaafeyso miyuu yahay qof kula joogaayaa noloshada inta ka dhiman....sida ay waalidkaa kuu jecelyihiina marnaba kuuma jeclaanaayo... so why defy my parents when I knwo at the end of the day he or she can leave me for having a bad day to mention da least ? And the three things Allah SWT... loves are. 1 Asalaatu fil waqtihaa ( salaada oo waqtigeeda la tukado) 2 Birul waalideyn ( waalidka oo la adeeco) 3 Jihaad fi sabiili laah ( jihaad oo Ilaaheey dartiis loo galo).. Marka.. qofna qof kale jeceel dartiis uma dheheen... waalidkaa ka soo hor jeeso.... never.. no matter wat their reasons are... Waxaa dhacday berigii Nabiga csw, waxaa jiray nin ( I don't remember his name now) oo wax kasta oo Ilaaheey jecel yahay sameyn jiray.. jihaad galay, sadaqo baxsaday... maalin maalmaha ka mid ah.. ayaa Nabiga csw u timid xaaskii ninkaa oo ku tiri.. hebel waa sakaraad. Nabiga waxa uu u diray, Bilaal cs iyo Ali cs si ay u arkaan xaaalada uu ku sugnaa. Markii ay gurigiisa tageen ayeey arkeen in ninka aad sakaraad u yahay. Shahaadada ayeey isku dayeen in ay ku qabtaa.. hebel dheh shahaada.. waa u dhihi waayey... Bilaal iyo Ali ayaga oo la yaaban ayuu Ali Bilal ku yiri.. Nabiga u sheeg waxa dhacaayaa. Bilaal marka uu nabiga csw u sheegay ayuu nabiga ku yiri, waalidkiis yaa nool? Markaas uu yiri hooyadii...waxa uu Nabiga csw yiri.. hadaba hooyadiis iigu yeer hadii aysan ii imaankarina aniga ayaa u tagaaya.. Bilaal iyo hooyadii oo isla socdaa ayaa nabigii csw u yimi.. Nabiga waxa uu weydiiyey... aqlaaqda wiilkeeda... xaga la dhaqanka waalidkiis marka la eego... Hooyadii waxey tiri, dhankasta waa uu ii roonaa.. laakiinse marka xaga xaaskiisa ay gaadho sheekada.. waxa uu la safan jiray xaaskiisa taasna aad ayaan uga xumaaday... Nabiga csw waxa uu yiri ... Qofka hooyadii niyada ka xumeeyaa Ilaaheeyna waa ka niyad xumaadaa... wiilkaadana waa sakaraad.. shahaadada ma qabanaayo... saas ayuu naarta ku galaayaa... markaas ayeey hooyadii naxday oo ay tiri.........Naarta yaa leyga geynin cafis ayuu iga yahay.. wax aan u qabo ma lahan... Nabiga csw waxa uu ku yiri Bilaal orad hadana ku qabta shahaadada hadii uu qabsado niyada hooyadiis waa saafi oo wey cafisay, hadii kalena weli waa ka xuntahay.... Bilaal markii uu qolka soo galay ayuu maqlay mariidkii oo ashahaadanaaya... markiiba wuu gartay in niyada hooyadii saafi u noqotay... Walalkiis marka.. arinka heerkaas ayuu maraayaa.. Ilama ahan in qof bini aadmi ahi aad ku doorsan karto waalidkaa esepcially hooyadaa... marka.. wiilkaas waxaan dhihi lahaa.. Hooyadaa ka duceyso oo naagta ay ku tiraahdo guurso guurso,... jeceelka waa dhamaadaa... midkalena waa dhashaa.. marka.. ta dambe koleyba waqtiga waa ku jecleysiinaayaa...

Rather gaal la soo diray oo loo soo diray in uu dadka soomaliyeed ee claim gareeya 100% in ay muslimiin yihiin in uu gaaleeyo ama uu ka dhaadhiciyo in aysan 100% Muslim aheyn.. Ma dhici kartaa?

Modesty I couldn't help but remember my own ordeal sis... this is wat happened... I met this absolute hunk in a somali party back in Mpls.. all the girls I mean literally ran after him but absurdly he went for me, a tomboy who wore nothing but a washed out jeans, a t-shirt and a baseball cap... anyways... After chatting with him on the fone for wat seemed to be a week, we went out on our first date. He took me to an italian restaurant up in downtown Mpls..I think it was called Bocca...I am not sure if it still exists.. The brotha said he would order for me... I found this time be romantic at the time.. given dat no man ever dared to be this confident..so I said sure with a big smile. He order me a meal with shrimps ( don't recall the name).. and as soon as I heard the shrimp part being the Maryooleey am said, nope thanks I don't eat shrimp.. wat seemed to be a simple order turned out to be the biggest dilemma of the restaurant's history....he just kept on insisting that I have it and I kept on saying.. I don't eat and I don't plan to try it ever...the look of it... disgusts... anyways.. he then hands me the menu and I end up choosing... Alfredo fettuccine with grilled salmon..... we went to the mall for a movie. The brotha just kept on watching himself on the side mirrors each and every one of them... I stood tehre watching.. wondering what in the world got me here.. At last I heard wat i was affraid of, " I look Good".. and that did it.. I told him I had headache and didn't really want to see a movie, and that I wanted to go home.. he took me home... expecting a good nite kiss.. I smiled got out of the car and said, " Loose my name and my number"....dat was it.. He was a true gentleman though he never called again So that was the lesson I learnt from ever considering a good looking guy... now I am more into the personality and how the person carries himself, than his looks.. pretty boys... I pass by the,, appreciate them frm afar not never consider dating them

Originally posted by The Resistance Movement: Hibo I sense for your respond that you know what you are talking about and thanks for sharing the information. I'm not an expert on Islam and certainly don’t intend to fake to know it but I’m a liberal and if one sister doesn’t feel that she wants to wear the hijab-regardless whether it say’s- (I read the evidence you have given)- the opportunity to refuse should be given since after all it is her right and her choice. How many 'requirements’ of the Quran have the Muslims ignored since the revelation of the Quran in order to benefit the individual or society’s comfort? What I am trying to say in short is that choices and rights of individuals in today’s society are more significant than the revelation of the Quran. Nobody keeps to the ‘requirements’ because of globalization and the continuous development of people’s minds, beliefs, morals and choices changing. The dress of Hijab is as important in Islam as prayers, yet so many Muslims don't pray. That doesn't mean they are not Muslims. We are Muslims and we are not allowed to judge or convict someone to Heaven or Hell based on how dat person is behaving. Allah is tha Hakim (The Judge) and its His call whether you are going to Hell or Heaven. Of course u have the choice to wear what u so desire but U have to understand that the Muslim community will judge u (humansdraw conclusions of the person's character based on their appearances)....and hence the hostility. My sister doesn't wear the Hijab sis, nor did I till this yr...so by all means take your time...and when Allah wills u will be shone the light. But I do understand, society doesn't let u be that way. Its just their way of trying to safe you from wat they believe to be the path to hell. Ya Rabi Ahdinaa wa Ahdi kulul Muslimiin..

^^^^ Islaantii aa kaa umula maskiin Wiilasha Soomaliyeed Bal in aad wax qorataan ha ilaawina.. Geeljire: Waa mahadsantahay sida faahfaahsan ee aad uga hadashay isutaga lab iyo dhedig laakiinse walaalkiis intaas oo tafaasir waxaad moodaa in wax yar aad ka gaabiso in ay waca naan laheyd...balse hadana waa mid loo baahnaa..

^^^^ R u that qumayo who isku kibrisay our brotha? If yes, then YEAH its directed at you But seriously though, Wat happened to our straight forward brothers, who believed in no Minii minii or nacnaclees?

^^^ Do ur searcha better walaalkiis.... walaashay waa marka aad qofka u sheegeysid in qofkani yahay qof kula dhashay oo ay tahay gabar. It seems u have lost the little somali left in u go home ASAP!!!

Originally posted by Haddad: quote:Originally posted by Brother Warsameh: Walaal Hibo Brother Warsameh, when addressing a female in Somali, one doesn't use Walaal ; one uses Abaayo . Hadaad, Walaal is a somali unisex word, and it can be applied to both male and female alike. I am sure u know that the Northern Somalis which are known as today as Somalilanders, don't use the word abaayo so they call their sister walaal. Originally posted by Brother: You first used "judge" and you seem to say now that you meant "judgmental" which is fine with me I did mean wat I said, A Judge!. We can't play the role of a judge, but in Islam certain things have their punishments which has already been specified....that includes adultery. Following the example u provided, when that woman is a married woman she is not put in house arrest rather she is stonned to death. And if that woman is unmarried she is lashed with 80 lashes and put in house arrest. The same applies to the men as well. The four witnesses should see the act of intercourse, its not just to see two ppl getting into a house or even laying naked on bed, rather the act itself...so its pretty rare to be able to see...but when u do u r ordered to call upon 3 more witness who have also seen the act while its still in process...Clear now. The Quran or the Sunnah does make us play the role of a judge from time to time, because the guidelines and the punishments which are to be carried out are crystal clear, however valid witnesses are a must so ensure that no human is done wrongly. But nowadays that seems to be vanishing because the Muslims are becoming weaker and our constitutions are based on human laws. Thus the Divine law has been replaced. Originally posted by Brother: I am impressed with your knowledge of the Bible! Don't think u r the only one who reads about other people's religions. Am trying to follow the footsteps of my brotha may he rest in peace Ahmed Deedat. By learning about the other religions so that I can debate with them on familiar grounds. Originally posted by Brother: You also said “I can only judge if I am completely pious, and sinless.†Do you really believe that, In Islam, you can ever be sinless? Does Islam teach Muslims can be sinless? It certainly teaches the contrary? Do you also need a Qur’an only evidence here?! I don't think u should be accusing Islam as being a religion where the commitment of sin is promoted. Coz then that would be "aflagaado iyo aan isku kacno"...certainly many of us including me can not stand anyone define my religion like u r doing now. So I think apology is due here. I normally ask for the Quranic evidence than the Sunnah if possible because its Divine words against human quotations although these quotations are correct. But the hadiths are too many to remember all of them...so I prefer the Quran, but that doesn't mean I don't believe in the Sunnah, I certainly do, I am just trying to cut my work short U still haven't answered my questions.....so scroll up and answer them. If u don't am gonna assume wat my brotha Ducaqabe is saying to be true. Ducaqabe: I am sure if your faith in Islam is strong no devil in human form can astray you. So I suggest you strengthen your ties with you Rabi coz many like Warsameh here will be seen in our society and you as a Muslim should know more than necessary about your religion. Plus Allah said, we should debate with them, confront them. Their superficial and twisted tactics shouldn't scare us rather it should make us want to know more about our religion.

Besbaaso: Weli Soomali ma baran miyaa sis, carabta waxey tiraahdaa, " La tafcal qeyr walaa yajiig shar". Which roughly means, " Don't do good so that harm won't harbor u"..marka waxaad is laheyd walaalkaa.. AuxCod niyada u dhis.. adiga uu kugu so jeestay sooma aragtid Auxcod: Walaalkiis ma hubtaa in dariiq laguula mari karo... ileen qofta waxey sanka u taagtay aad qabtaaye... naag soomali nin kala xeran heshay san ma taageysee.. sanadkaan... fooxumo.net miyaa sheekada walaalkiis??? Enchant: Just trying to sarcastic walaashiis...if that was the truth u would have found me in London long time ago,...why do u think I ain't even passing thru the airport...

Warsameh: U really didn't have to start up a topic to convince me. 1. NOt being judgemental: Like your Jesus said to the people who brought him the woman who has fornicated, " If you have never committed like her crime, u may stay and stone her".. ..while looking down. The woman looked up to see that not even a single person was left to stone her... Jesus told her to leave and not to repeat the same mistake again.. am I getting the story correct of something is missing... Please provide the evidence in the Quran where Allah says we are entitled to judge Well I believe its the same case in Islam. I can only judge if I am completely pious, and sinless. I am not sinless. May Allah forgive me...so I can't judge. And ofcourse your hadayah is with Allah. He will set u on the right path when He wills. Now as for the other Somali christians.. I am still not quite convinced with the evidences u r producing because, none of them have tangible proof. I mean if u truly believe in your religion than u shouldn't be too scared to practise it. Rather if u r killed because of it, am sure if your religion is correct, than your Jesus will surely save u since he is ur savior. And u will have a better life in Heaven than u did on this Earth. So why worry? Ta kale, SOL has many forums which are quite fascinating, if u r not here to preach than why is ur presense known only in the Islamic forum? why don't u share your thoughtts on other topics as well like the rest of us?

Mizzy....Nayaa horta maxaa ii dabo socotaa... Did the INS employ u waa yaabee... coz I have been hiding from them ... Just teasing u sista.. I thought this would make ur day a bit better

Afro: I didn't I don't know where it is? Help me find it so that I can know how it feels to be minus a star

^^^^ .... mine is not actually an advertisement, its just that am jealous coz, I didn't experience such a magnificent treatment....Although am still open for anyone who is applying As for you, am sure u can hop on any u find attractive... I thought London was beaming with a herd of well educated, all that and bag of crab boys... who were to kill for.?? how come u r still single :rolleyes:

Still confused here, Do people actually care about the stars? I thought they were there for fun...?? :confused:

Wiilo: Walaasheey si talo aad u siisid qof walaalkaa ahi qasab ma ahan in aad adiga tahay qof guur soo arkay. Aniga run ahaantii qofka aan jeclahay oo guursanaayo waxaan talo ahaan u siin lahaa labo shey: 1. Samir yeelo, guriga qof unbuu ku dhisan yahay marka qofka sabra noqo. 2. Communication. Waa in ay dadka wada hadalaan, la tashlaa wax lees weydiyaa, lees dhageystaa, wax leeska maqlaa... marka... la hadal xaaskaada ama odeygaada una sheeg dareemahaaga iyo sida aad u rabtid in aad wax u sameysaan... ama talo siin.

MIzz: Am trying to cover up for all that I have missed in 2003/2004....and some of 2005....the people before whom I have joined SOL, have posted more than 2000 postings and I haven't even reached 1000 yet

Mizzy : U kept me rolling walaahi... that was funny... 3......)dere is the new practicing generation, who will find out ur mahram's details, ask them if they can talk to u, a date is set for u guys to meet, in front of ur dad (embarrassing) chat, see if you find each other attractive, ur dad/brother does the investigation on his deen and character den dey get married. It happened to my sister, a guy told my brother that he was interested and my brother requested that my sister give the guy a chance. My sister did it. And the guy came to see her with another guy and this happened like for couple more times.. and my sister said nope thank u.... ( she is too modernised... u know am independent kind of a sister... I guess dat is wat West does to u)... anyways it was funnt how she put it.... she said.. he is a chicken he can't even face me alone.. how the hell is he gonna marry me? So it does happen... Enchantment: The season for husband hunting has been on for a quite sometime now.. I don't know how u could have missed it Zep: I guess he will have to suffer a long time b4 he can jump into the sack Moth: Isn't that romantic? I mean think of it... u get to know him after u r married to him... u know.. he will try to impress u and u will try to impress him... living ur excitement in halal way... fantastic I would say.
