IM GLAD U GUYS LIKED IT. AND FOR THE ONES WHO THINK I WROTE DAT NO I DIDN'T I GOT THAT ONE AND THE OTHER POST THAT SAYS WHAT DO U SEE WHEN U LOOK AT ME. IT IS FROM THIS ISLAMIC GROUP IM MEMBER AT. SO LAST THING I WANNA DO IS TAKE CREDIT THAT DOESN'T BELONG TO ME.. SO IF ANY CREDIT WOULD BE GIVEN IT WOULD BE THE DUDE THAT WROTE IT.. I JUST WANNA TO SAY SHARE IT WITH U GUYS COZ IT WAS SO TRUE AND GOOD REMINDER..

This is another one too.. it is real eye opener for reals.. just wanna to share it with my bro n sisters here. masallamaa.. the following is from Islamcan and i thought it to be quite an eye opener... Are you ready for your turn? He was a student, probably in his early twenties. I didn't know his name--I really didn't care. All I know is he was going for a lay-up while playing basketball, lost his balance and fell on the ground--flat on his back. We thought he would shake it off and continue the game--so no one really cared. To everyones surprise, he never got up. At first a few people on his team (later everyone) went up to him but he just wouldn't reply. CPR did no good. The ambulance personel couldn't save him from dying. The result at the ER was no better. HE WAS DEAD! As I came home tonight, I thought to myself, it could have been me going up for that lay-up. It is very possible that I could be laying in the cold city morgue, right this minute, as I type this e-mail. Am I ready to die? Did I communicate with Allah today? Did I perform my daily prayers? Did I seek the pleasure of Allah? Did I treat my parents and family with respect and love? Did I give any at all in charity (sadaqa) today? How many times did I remember Allah and recount His name? The entire day I made time to go to school, check my e-mail, read the news, chat with friends, watch TV, play basketball.......but did I even once say "Estagfirullah"? Did I ask Allah to forgive the sins that I've commited today? NO! Not once. Did I say "Elhamdulillah" other than in my daily prayers? NO! Not once my friends. Would you like to know why? Because I was too caught up with myself and my daily activities. Well, guess what. I could have lost my life during a lay-up in a basketball game and what do I have with me? Not a thing. Nothing that I did today do I get to bring with me to the grave. Nothing. A few words that I could have uttered were the only things that I could have brought with me. A few words that would've taken a few seconds of concentration out of the 24 hrs. that was alloted to me. A few cents in charity instead of cold drinks and candy bars could have saved my soul. But I insisted to continue with my careless attitude. Thank God it wasn't my turn to go, because I sure wasn't ready. Now I close my eyes and say Elhamdulillah. Now I look back and say Estagfirullah. Now I have a different attitude. Now, I want to prepare for my turn. Did you perform your prayers today? Did you give in charity and love? Did you ask for forgiveness yet? Do you care? I'm asking because I don't want to see you fall, knowing you aren't ready for your turn. Are you ready for your turn? May the Peace and Mercy of Allah be upon us all.

Asallam Aaliakum.. i hope u ladies like it. i thought it was cute n true.. i got it thro this group im member of at yahoo. is mostly muslim women. and we send each other anything., and this poem was one of the things i got..masallama. peace n 1 luv.. WHEN YOU LOOK AT ME ALL YOU CAN SEE IS THE SCARF THAT COVERS MY HAIR. MY WORDS YOU CAN'T HEAR BECAUSE YOU'RE TOO FULL OF FEAR, MOUTH GAPING, ALL YOU DO IS STARE. YOU THINK IT'S NOT MY OWN CHOICE, IN YOUR OWN "LIBERATION" YOU REJOICE. YOU'RE SO THANKFUL THAT YOU'RE NOT ME. YOU THINK I'M UNEDUCATED, TRAPPED, OPPRESSED AND SUBJUGATED. YOU'RE SO THANKFUL THAT YOU ARE FREE. BUT WESTERN WOMAN YOU'VE GOT IT WRONG- YOU'RE THE WEAK AND I'M THE STRONG, FOR I'VE REJECTED THE TRAP OF MAN. FANCY CLOTHES-LOW NECK, SHORT SKIRT, THESE ARE DEVICES FOR PAIN AND HURT, I'M NOT FALLING FOR THAT LITTLE PLAN. ALWAYS JUMPING TO THE MALE AGENDA, COMPETING ON HIS TERMS. NO JOB SHARE, NO CRECHE FACILITIES, NO FEEDING AND NAPPY CHANGING AMENITIES. NO TIME OFF FOR MENSTRUAL PAIN- "HORMONES" THEY LAUGH "WHAT A SHAME." NO EQUAL PAY FOR EQUAL SKILL- YOUR JOB THEY CAN ALWAYS FILL. NO PROMOTION UNLESS YOU'RE STERILISED. NO PROMOTION UNLESS YOU'RE SEXUALLY TERRORISED. AND IS THIS LIBERATION? I'M A PERSON WITH IDEAS AND THOUGHT, I'M NOT FOR SALE, I CAN'T BE BOUGHT. I WON'T DECORATE ANYONE'S ARM, NOR BE PROMOTED FOR MY CHARM. THER'S MORE TO ME THAN PLAYING COY. LIVING LIFE AS A BALANCING GAME-MOTHER, DAUGHTER,WIFE,NURSE,CLEANER,COOK,LOVER- AND STILL BRING HOME A WAGE. WHO THOUGHT UP THIS MODERN "FREEDOM" WHERE MAN CAN LOVE 'EM AND MAN CAN LEAVE 'EM THIS IS NOT FREE BUT LIFE IN A CAGE. WESTERN WOMAN YOU CAN HAVE YOUR LIFE MINE-IT HAS LESS STRIFE. I COVER AND I GET RESPECTED SURELY THAT'S TO BE EXPECTED- FOR I WON'T DEMEAN THE FEMININE I WON'T LIVE TO A MALE CRITERION. I DANCE TO MY OWN TUNE, AND I HOPE YOU SEE THIS VERY SOON, FOR YOUR OWN SAKE-WAKE UP AND USE YOUR SIGHT! ARE YOU SO SURE THAT YOU ARE RIGHT? FROM A MUSLIM WOMAN. HANISHA

i hope some u guys can help here.. okay here is the problem i got.. i have friends who don't wear scarf(hijab) well when non muslim comes up to us and askes how come some muslims wear it and some don't? my friends who doesn't wear the Hijab goes oh it is not required . and that there is no prove in the quran it says to cover up.hello?? :mad: i know that is not true and that our religion says we should cover up, but the problem is i don't wanna make her feel bad or stopid, and this happens more than ones.. it is just crazy to say hey im muslim yet i don't believe it. and one other reason i don't wanna go off on her is becoz she is Sheecah right so we kinda different.. so what other way to say girl if u don't know what u sayin can u please not say anything without being rude.. coz the other day i was about to say oh i forgot u was sheecah dahh girl :rolleyes: ... but then stoped myself.. hey im not sayin i know the religion more than she does, but if someone askes me something and i don't know. all u gonna gonna hear is "i don't know". nothing else.

i seriously haven't seen somalian guy who ever asked me to let him pay for it hmmm lol.. maybe i haven't see lot of them i guess. but my afghan friend always do dat. if u don't let the nigga pay for it, it is war, so why bother lol. but the only problem with dat is we don't go like two, we are groups mostly about 4 ppl, so he has to pay for all of them that is kinda sad.. 2cute u are right if u know him for while or u guys close it don't matter if i pay for it or if he does...

girl since u or any of us here don't know the real story why doesn't she talk to him and tell him all she knows. coz it might be someone playin joke on her, hey the brotha might have some haters so helloo nowadays computers can do more than pictures so don't let that fool u my dear.. so tell ur home girl to chill and ask him and even show him what she saw that freaked her out. if he said aight so it is truth then there u have it, she can move on with no doubt..

^^^ that was funny. what u mean u guys takin this family thing too far?? i was just wonderin... and for the sista that asked.. well i don't like xabadsooda that much .so what i do is take filfil, milk, and suger boil it and drink it hot. it works. get all the rest i can get. and make sure ur body always stays warm. put ur socks on, sweater, or sleep and stay under the blanket..

rudy for reals lol.. thanks for the hint why do i wanna have u here for? now that u told me u gonna give me water and bread i can get that and not have u here hahahahah kidding.. by the way i have pasta, and lately i don't like hilib. so the only way for me to get back the skiny girl i was 5 yrs ago i have to move to country that don't have chocolate lol.. any of guys know one?? but why is that dude? i know i don't know how to cook them good foods like my mom n all, but atleast i can teach u how to cook one or two things.. what u say to dat?? .... and dymmm dude im guessin u kill all ur check on food if u gotta eat out 24/7... i would tell u get urself wifey like i tell my cuzins but i guess u ain't ready for dat yet.

guys guys cut it out now. who cares why he is lookin for her.... give him a break yo'll military sweety u are wrong ppl on this website are kool but every ones in a while they get drunk and they lose it so don't mind them lol.. i remember that girl u was talkin about from the community but i don't know her. but since u know her name why not go to the memeber's list and see if u can find her name and send her PM.. that was just an idea.. good luck thou bro.. masallama

dymm this topic is sure gettin bigger up in here.. and im surprised to see half of the members of this site speak arabic mansha'allah.. Shaka Zulu what was that pass ur info n names all about dude?

gediid: (#1 Reason why Somalis are messed up: Half are born as result of Mirqaan, the other half bisinka Looma Qaban) this is my #1 i laugh big itme. just reading it... Og-gilr n clown..

rudy how did u know i would say (see ya don't wanna be ya)?? dude u freaked me out :eek: :eek: lol..

nin yaban believe me i wasn't always like dat.. if i read the same topic few years ago i would have said i would kill if he married another wife but now that im old lady and talkin to moma alot i understand the world better ya know what i mean. rudy hahahah.. update it is dude.. Rahima that is smart idea sis .. i just don't like to be surprise of findin out after wards, or finding out from outsiders.. but if he really feels he needs another one and we talked about it for while why should i stop him, if he is good husband god will reward him for being fair, if not his behind is just workin how to go to hell the american express way lol..

og-moti.. thanks for the poster son.. and yes that somalian shy lady sure isn't me. so can u like find some arabian lady and put my name next to it then i'll be happy but keep up the good work grandpa.......

girl believe it or not i have seen ladies as young as 16 gettin married. i don't know what drug they on but they do... if it was up to me? i would say 25 is perfecto for guys and ladies.... but i know havin the mother that i do i will be lucky if i stick around for another year or so so my vote is 25 n under just not younger then 20 please.......

nin yaben u already lost dude so no need for 2 wives to make it worst. hahaha lol.. i would say i don't have problem with my husband marryin other wife as long as nothing would change between us(me n him) and also that he would treat both of us 110% fair, no takin sides, and that his behind will have time for the kids, and no excuses oh im tired i can't do this and dat. (coz after all no one made him have second wife and other kids) lol think about it there is no guy out there who would treat them all fair, make sure they all happy. if there is one please let me know i sure would love to see dat one lol.... seriously i have heard,n seen alot of man sayin i wana get me second or third wife but then i laugh coz i see how they treat the first one so what is gonna be different if he marries second or third? nothin instead havin one lady now he got two lady who gonna be livin in nightmare. plus most of somalis i see here all take welfare so i don't see many guys that can say yes i can handle two or three wives.. is more like (he) make her have the babies but they are the government's kids since they seem to give them the money. so for any guy to say i can handle this and dat they sure talkin non sense... one other reason i think is big no no to have more than one wife. the kids.. i have know this lady. she used to be always happy and she has 8 kids with this dude. the day her husband married this other lady was the last day i saw her kids dressed like human beings, or her smilin. not to mention he start beatin her up, and since she loves the nigga she doesn't wanna divorce him ( which i think she is being stopid) so u tell me one good reason why havin more than one is good thing? besides he can see different lady every night. which is just for him. but what do the kids get out it? besides seein mom and dad fightin 24/7... anyway that was my two cent so sallamat ya nass.

let get this. so u guys sayin it is pick up line? so why would girls say that too? but seriously i thought all somalis knew each . and i was hidin in the caves like my uncle osama or something but thanks for all the answers. atleast from now on i won't be annoyed when someone asks me dat. latif: It is weird bro.. Nefertiti: girl same here i been livin here for the last 7 yrs. and u won't see me around somali area unless im workin with them, takin my mom to one of them ado's house other den dat im at home. OG_Girl: hot? girl what u been smokin lol.. nah sweety im queen of ogly lol ask Bachelor hahaha.. Kaafi: is that a joke question dude? coz i wasn't waitin for q to answer my q if u know what i mean

okay i had to ask this. coz is crazy for more than 5 ppl to ask u in one day.. i mean what does it really take to be offically known u live in that town? seriously i get that everytime i go to friend's weddin or just stop by the somalian store coz my mom wants me to get something (or else i wouldn't be in somalian store first place) i thought ppl in this town where wack, but it seems somalis in MPLS do dat too. coz my friend who went there to visit her sis was tellin me the same thing. ppl were askin if she was new here.

Nuune ohhhhhhhhh i gotta tell ur girl u been doing lil somethin somethin lol... but how good is my Niiko? hmm maybe 6.. i don't do niiko at much, my free time i love dancin masre or khalije coz my other two sister try to compete with me but hey what can i say i got better moves then they do lol and for the lady that was sayin belly dancin is easy? girl please who told u dat lol.. i mean if they doing the real thing i don't think so. but i have seen some ppl fakin it big time and they were tell ppl oh that is belly dance :eek: :eek:

og-moti is ur wedding aug too?? well i haven't seen that many ppl gettin married aug so im not sure what u talkin about. but u know what i think most somalis should make their wedding jan 1st that way their birthday and their wedding is the same day hahaha. what am i saying (is more like the whole family's b-day yo, grandpa, grandma, mom,dad, the wife husband) lord have mercy.. just kiddin. but if the lady is smart enough i don't think she would make it her weddin on her b-day.. coz then he would only get u one gift, or take u out one time. instead make it two different months that way he gotta remember two days and if he doesn't well he is in big trouble...

hahahahahaha im only gonna laugh here. og-moti if that is how u are romantic please stop being one sweety .. :rolleyes: who in earth tells girl u are like apple pie waitin for me to stick my fingers into it :confused: :confused: ..
