Well this a surprise but I agree wholeheartedly with you Alpha. The NDP looks promising but is still a little easy on those bloody NGOs.

^Either way, it is better for you not to make absolute statement such as "this is extremely misleading. No READING of the qur'an is allowed" when you know, as you have demonstrated in subsequent posts that disagreements exists. Narniah JizaakAllah, for sharing this lovely article walaal. This is useful even beyond Ramadan.

Here is a learned Islamic scholar however, who eloquently explains the futility of some of these science proofs/ negates the existence of Allah debates. “There is nothing in the logic of the created world that can irrefutably point to beyond its own nature…” He goes into more detail in this long lecture, it's definitely worth listening to if you have the time.

^Different sides of the same coin, dear. There is a shift in blame in both cases where the victim is believed to have 'asked for it', through their actions / behaviour, giving some justification for the attack. She's using art to express her political opinions, which I believe represents the sentiments of some from her region and it would have been better to refute her through art.

It's so sad. It's not enough to throw money at people after messing up their life for good. This reminds me of a BBC documentary on the Cardif three scandle. http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/cardiff-three

Ibts and Blue... this is the first where a man is rejecting a woman. Gabdheena have perfected the art of kicking faaraxs to the kerb.. Here.. and here and a gem from the past..

Old and young versions of handsom, mashaAllah. I hope he has inherited his awoowos spirited personality too. Sorry LV, but your bag is so out of place and ugly here...

MashaAllah, looks fabulously stimulating . I hope to be there for HIBF 2013, InshaAllah. Try to do something for young dhaqan celis, traditional games and activities. That would be fantastic for your little friends, sow maaha Ibts?

^I agree with you on evolution. As far as his theories on creation and the way he positions Allah within creation are concerned, the refutation is within Quranic Ayat. I myself have started off by liking his works, but some of his ideas did not sit well with me and seemed to contradict teaching of the Quran, so I've researched them and would suggest that every Muslim does this. At the end of the day, we don't need science, art, etc. to proof that Allah exist, we do however need to make sure that our faith in Him is based on sound Knowledge and Haruun Yahya is not a scholar of Islam.

MashaAllah, Wyr. Such a busy month. Illahay hakaa aqbalo your cumrah, shifo haku siiyo, guurkana hakuu wanaajiyo InshaAllah.

^Xalwada iyo sambuusaha is soo dhaafi.. lol

^Well said. Some people and their over generalisations kill me, "why do Somalis bother having children", ku lahaa? lol. Alhamdulilah, there are many amazing Somali parents. It's silly to measure parenting by ethnicity, anyway, even when you're sighting cultural practices, many parents choose to put their children first and I bet the guys making these negative generalisations will turn around and say, 'not my parents, they are the exception'.

^lol, Bal adna meesha ka dhaqaaq. MsMoons, Hambalyo,. Enjoy the wedding, walaalo. May Allah bless your marriage with love, patience and beautiful righteous children. Ameen.

Teenagehood is the most challenging times for parents and teenagers. In this case the mother made one mistake, after the girl finished secondary school their relationship was relaxed , this was her opportunity to bond with her, thus to be able to influence her daughter's life choices. It should always not be my way or the high way - parenting like any other relationship it requires a certain amount of compromise, understanding, negotiations, compassion and respect. For those whom are raising pre-teens or teens - I would recommend this book called. "How to Talk So Kids Will Listen& Listen So Kids Will Talk" To raise self worth young women will require mothers to change their tone.their language etc. The former talk of - anigu markaa adiga kuu leeg, I was cooking, cleaning, carrying three of my sibling on my back whilst caltivating the land, caring for my abo,hoyo, praying 5 salah including all sunnah, read the quraan from cover to cover 100 times, wore clothes that were hand me down from aunties/cousins etc, never watched a movie, iska baa daa listen to music, I was known in the neighbourhood as 'saint Khadija' adigu naa waxaa rabta inaad ii cebeysiid - the whole neighbourhood is talking about you, you went our wearing jeans?? adigo madax qawaan?? alla baa ayee!! ..You say what, you want to join the school debate team - naa yaa caruutaa laa jogeyaa whilst I am at heblayo's house huh? naa jogsoo anigu debate team iyo waxaas maa aqaan.

I feel sorry for our kids sometimes.

Poor girl. Illaahay ha u sahlo.

Personally, I'm not a fan of HY, there are many scientific and Islamic fiqh errors in his books. His notions of creation being imagined is just odd and goes against the teaching of our deen. I advise Muslims to take the message in his writings / videos with a pinch of salt.

riveting stuff..

I suppose the thought that Somali girls in the west prefer other men helps some deal with rejection. How does one explain rejection in his own back yard, laakin? Alpha?

The marathon is on, I can see American lad Abdi Abdirihman near front. Go Abdiiiiiii!!! Edit. Can't see him. Great run by the underdog, Kiprotich of Uganda!

I was a bit lost with article as well. She talks about how Somalis are very much connected with home, how the emerging peace back home means many will be returning and for those that stay it will mean a new chapter will begin. I agree with everything she said, except it doesn't really address the title, perhaps, we're more confident / visible nomads? p.s Ayeeyo, how do you feel about Somalis in the media now?

Can you provide something a bit more substantial on this story? Link to a news piece, perhaps? p.s You mean Alpha and his people? Our Jacaylbaro is every tol.

but it didn't and even when Abdi Bile tearfully inforned the crowed, their reaction was so off...
