Funny how long it takes to serve ALLAH for an hour, but how quickly a team play 60 minutes of basketball. Funny how 100$ looks so big when taken to mosque but so small when taken to mall. Funny how long a couple of hours spent at the mosque seem, but how short they are when watching a movie. Funny how people can't think of anything to say when they pray, but don't have difficulty thinking of things to talk about to a friend. Funny how people get thrilled when a cricket game goes into one day series, but complain when a " khutba" is longer than the regular time. Funny how hard it is to read a chapter in Quran, but how easy it is to read 100 pages of best selling novel or magazine. Funny how people want to get a front seat at any game or concert, but scramble to sit in the back at mosque. Funny how people need 2 or 3 weeks advance notice to fit a Muslim event into their schedule, but can adjust their schedule for other events at the last moment. Funny how people believe what the newspapers says, but question what the Quran says!! Funy how everyone wants to go to heaven provided they do not have to believe, think, say or do anything...... So My dear Nomads... If being funny means the above things... well I am not funny at all..... PEACE

PEACE..

It's known that parents plays a vital role in their kid's life, and this will affect everything on them personality, Identity,way of thinking...... Sadly I can say that I can 50% blame my family and my surrounding for erasing my somali identity. I was born in a non-somali country, raised there and live my whole life here, without thinking just once of taking me to my mother land.Even the somali language was not our daily used language,wallahi i used to feel shy sometimes to talk with others by my somali language cuz i am afraid they will find out how weak i am in it....I even don't know how to read somali but trying my best.... Wallahi i was feeling shy of wearing the deric till the day that i had to wear it and i realized that it is really nice and i shouldnot feel shy of wearing it.... Even our somali food... It was very rare to see or taste it.. I am doing my best to make a somali identity for me ... cuz i am proud being somali and i have to show that... ******************************************* Summary: Try to teach ur kids about their roots and their home land.... PEACE [This message has been edited by Ismahan (edited 03-18-2002).]

PEACE...

Read what they call it a (JOKE) ....... An American President and a British Prime Minister are at a White House dinner. One of the guests walks over to them and asks what they're discussing. "We are making up the plans for World War III", says the President. "Wow", says the guest. "And what are the plans?" "We're gonna kill 14 million Muslims and one dentist", answers the President. The guest looks to be a bit confused. "One...dentist?" He says. "Why will you kill one dentist?" The Prime Minister pats the President on the shoulder and says, "What did I tell you? Nobody is going to ask about the Muslims. ***************** is that is the truth no one care about muslims and what happen to them !!!!!!!!!!!and people started saying jokes about us.... subxan allah.

I went for shopping to pay a new beautiful dress of that BIG day ... was thinking what kind of make up i should put.... even the shoes that i ganna wear... to look great... I started inviting my family, friends, teachers, lab technicians, even my (Enemies)just to make them see that. and the big day came.... I was too happy ...the party started ..everything is going smooth so far... When the dean start calling the names..mistakely the student that was calling the names forgetten my name and started calling the rest of students.... u can just imagin my face... i was shocked, especially after inviting everyone that ever heard of my name.. I felt my self just like a little (barambaro) on the wall surviving to be alive..... And the problem started when my room mates in the hostel started calling my name loudly to remind the caller by my name infront everyone.. and then my collegues joined them calling my name and the party was about to be a total mess .... I was just about to die....then finally they called my name and the dean apologized for what happened and Ooops I forgetten the speech paper on the chair...So all the hole started laughing and when i started saying whatever was in my mind .. my mobile was with me and rang... and the microphone noise started... God I just take the little certificate and get down.... Next month the country government will make the annual graduation party and the president of the country will be there.... I guess i won't invite anyone even Mum... ********************************** I got other embarassing moments i may post them lata... Peace.....

Get on the train of repentance my sister, before it passes by your station. Deeply consider my sister, what is happening today before tomorrow comes. Think, my sister - starting now. All praise is due to Allah ta'aala as is deserved by His Majesty and Great Power. I send prayers and ask for blessings upon His Noble Messenger who drew the path for us to the pleasure of Allah and His Jannah. This path is a straight one that is surrounded by virtue from all sides and attends to the best moral characteristics which are increased by the clothing of purity, concealment, and chastity. It is the path trod by the two halves of human society, namely the man and the woman, toward harmonious contentment and happiness in this life and the Hereafter. This is precisely why the Protector, the blessed and above all imperfection, has made wearing hijaab (see As-Sunnah Articles) an obligation upon the woman as a safeguard of her chastity and protection of her honor and sign of her faith (Eemaan). It is on account of this that societies (both Muslim and non-Muslim) that have distanced themselves from the way of Allah and deviated from His straight path, are ill societies in need of treatment that will lead them to recovery and happiness. Among the pictures that point to the distance of society from that path and that make clear the level of its deviation and separation from it is the open spread of women not just uncovering their faces but enhancing and making a display of their beauty. We find that this is manifested regretfully, in Islamic (Muslim) society despite that Islamic clothing is also widespread. So then, what are the reasons that have led to this digression? We put this question to a varied group of women from whom we derived ten major excuses and upon examination and scrutiny, the frailty of the excuses became evident to us. Stay with us dear Muslim sister in these few lines so that we can know through them the reasons for turning away from the hijaab and then discuss each. Excuse One:I'm not yet convinced (of the necessity) of hijaab. We then ask this sister two questions. One: Is she truly convinced of the correctness of the religion of Islam? The natural answer is: Yes she is convinced for she responds "Laa ilaaha illallah!" (There is no god but Allah), meaning she is convinced of the aqeedah, and then she says: "Muhammadun rasoolullah!" (Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah), meaning by that that she is convinced of its legislation or law (sharee'ah). Therefore, she is convinced of Islam as a belief system and a law by which one governs and rules their life. Two: Is the hijaab then a part of Islamic Law (sharee'ah) and an obligation? If this sister is honest and sincere in her intention and has looked into the issue as one who truly wants to know the truth her answer could only be: Yes. For Allah ta'aala, Whose deity (Uloohiyyah) she believes in has commanded wearing hijaab in His Book (Al-Qur'aan) and the noble prophet ('alaihi salaat wa salaam)whose message she believes in has commanded wearing the hijaab in his sunnah. What do we call a person who says they believe in and are content with the correctness of Islam but who nonetheless does not do what Allah or His Messenger have ordered? Certainly they can in no way be described as those whom Allah speaks of in this aayah: The only saying of the faithful believers when they are called to Allah and His Messenger to judge between them is that they say 'we hear and obey' and such are the successful. [soorah An-Noor 24:51] In summary: If this sister is convinced of Islam, how then can she not be convinced of its orders? Excuse Two: I am convinced of Islamic dress but my mother prevents me from wearing it and if I disobey her I will go to the Fire. The one who has answered this excuse is the most noble of Allah's creation, the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam) in concise and comprehensive words of wisdom: There is no obedience to the created in the disobedience of Allah.[Ahmed] The status of parents in Islam, especially the mother, is a high and elevated one. Indeed Allah ta'aala has combined it with the greatest of matters, worshipping Him and His tawheed, in many aayaat. He stated:Worship Allah and join none with Him and do good to parent [soorah An-Nisaa 4:36] Obedience to parents is not limited except in one aspect, and that is if they order to disobedience of Allah. Allah said: But if they strive with you to make you join in worship with Me others that of which you have no knowledge, then obey them not.[soorah Luqmaan 31:15] The lack of obedience to them in sinfulness does not prevent being good to them and kind treatment of them. Allah said afterward in the same aayah: But behave with them in the world kindly. In summary: How can you obey your mother and disobey Allah Who created you and your mother? Excuse Three: My position does not allow me to substitute my dress for Islamic dress. This sister is either one or the other of two types: She is sincere and honest, or she is a slippery liar who desires to make a showy display of her "hijaab" clamoring with colors to be "in line with the times" and expensive. We will begin with an answer to the honest and sincere sister. Are you unaware my dear sister, that it is not permissible for the Muslim woman to leave her home in any instance unless her clothing meets the conditions of Islamic hijaab (Hijaab shar'ee) and it is a duty of every Muslim woman to know what they are? If you have taken the time and effort to learn so many matters of this world how then can you be neglectful of learning those matters which will save you from the punishment of Allah and His anger after death!!? Does Allah not say: Ask the people of remembrance (i.e. knowledgeable scholars) if you do not know. [soorah An-Nahl 16:43]. Learn therefore, the requirements of proper hijaab. If you must go out, then do not do so without the correct hijaab, seeking the pleasure of Allah and the degradation of Shaitaan. That is because the corruption brought about by your going out adorned and "beautified" is far greater than the matter which you deem necessary to go out for. My dear sister if you are really truthful in your intention and correctly determined you will find a thousands hands of good assisting you and Allah will make the matter easy for you! Is He not the One Who says:And whoever fears Allah and keeps his duty to Him, He will make a way for him to get out (from every difficulty) and He will provide him from sources he never could imagine[soorah At-Talaaq 65:2-3]? With regards to the 'slippery' one we say: Honor and position is something determined by Allah ta'aala and it is not due to embellishment of clothing and show of colors and keeping up with the trendsetters. It is rather due to obedience to Allah and His Messenger (sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam) and holding to the pure law of Allah and correct Islamic hijaab. Listen to the words of Allah: Indeed, the most honorable amongst you are those who are the most pious. [soorah Al-Hujuraat 49:35] In summary: Do things in the way of seeking Allah's pleasure and entering His Jannah and give less value to the high priced and costly objects and wealth of this world. Excuse Four:It is so very hot in my country and I can't stand it. How could I take it if I wore the hijaab? Allah gives an example by saying: Say: The Fire of Hell is more intense in heat if they only understand. [soorah At-Taubah 9:81] How can you compare the heat of your land to the heat of the Hellfire? Know, my sister, that Shaitaan has trapped you in one of his feeble ropes to drag you from the heat of this world to the heat of the Hellfire. Free yourself from his net and view the heat of the sun as a favor and not an affliction especially in that it reminds you of the intensity of the punishment of Allah which is many times greater than the heat you now feel. Return to the order of Allah and sacrifice this worldly comfort in the way of following the path of salvation from the Hellfire about which Allah says: They will neither feel coolness nor have any drink except that of boiling water and the discharge of dirty wounds.[soorah An-Naba' 78:24-25] In summary: The Jannah is surrounded by hardships and toil, while Hellfire is surrounded by temptations, lusts and desires. Excuse Five:I'm afraid that if I wear the hijaab I will put it off at another time because I have seen so many others do so!! To her I say: If everyone was to apply your logic then they would have left the Deen in its entirety! They would have left off salaat because some would be afraid of leaving it later. They would have left fasting in Ramadhan because so many are afraid of not doing it later?etc. Haven't you seen how Shaitaan has trapped you in his snare again and blocked you from guidance? Allah ta'aala loves continuous obedience even if it be small or recommended. How about something that is an absolute obligation like wearing hijaab?! The prophet (sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam) said: The most beloved deed with Allah is the consistent one though it be little.Why haven't you sought out the causes leading those people to leave off the hijaab so that you can avoid them and work to keep away from them? Why haven't you sought out reasons and causes to affirm truth and guidance until you can hold firm to them? Among these causes is much supplication to Allah (du'aa) to make the heart firm upon the Deen as did the prophet (sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam). Also is making salaat and having mindfulness of it as Allah stated:And seek help in patience and the prayer and truly it is extremely heavy except for the true believers in Allah who obey Allah with full submission and believe in His promise of Jannah and in His warnings (Al-Khaashi'oon).[soorah Al-Baqarah 2:45] Other causes to put one upon guidance and truth is adherence to the laws of Islam and one of them is indeed wearing the hijaab. Allah said: If they had done what they were told, it would have been better for them and would have strengthened their faith. [soorah Al-Baqarah 2:66] In summary: If you hold tight to the causes of guidance and taste the sweetness of faith you will not neglect the orders of Allah after having held to them. Excuse Six: If I wear the hijaab then nobody will marry me, so I'm going to leave it off until then. Any husband who desires that you be uncovered and adorned in public in defiance of and in disobedience to Allah, is not a worthy husband in the first place. He is a husband who has no feeling to protect what Allah has made inviolable, most notably yourself, and he will not help you in any way to enter Al-Jannah or escape from the Hellfire. A home which is founded upon disobedience to Allah and provocation of His anger is fitting that He decree misery and hardship for it in this life and in the Hereafter. As Allah stated: But whosoever turns away from My reminder (i.e. neither believes in the Qur'aan nor acts upon its teachings) verily for him is a life of hardship and We shall raise him up blind on the Day of Resurrection. [soorah Ta Ha 20:124] Marriage is a favor and blessing from Allah to whom He give whom He wills. How many women who wear hijaab (mutahajibah) are in fact married while many who don't aren't? If you were to say that '..my being made-up and uncovered is a means to reach a pure end, namely marriage', a pure goal or end is not attained through impure and corrupt means in Islam. If the goal is honorable then it must necessarily be achieved by pure and clean method. We say the rule in Islam is: The means are according to the rules of the intended goals. In summary: There is no blessing in a marriage established upon sinfulness and corruption. Excuse Seven:I don't wear hijaab based on what Allah says: And proclaim the grace of your Rabb [soorah Ad-Dhuhaa 93:11] How can I cover what Allah has blessed me with of silky soft hair and captivating beauty? So?this sister of ours adheres to the Book of Allah and its commands as long as they coincide with her personal desires and understanding! She leaves behind those matters when they don't please her. If this was not the case, then why doesn't she follow the aayah:And do not show off their adornment except only that which is apparent[soorah An-Noor 24:31] and the statement of Allah subhaanah:Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks all over their bodies [soorah Al-Ahzaab 33:59]? With this statement my sister you have now made a shari'ah (law) for yourself of what Allah ta'aala has strictly forbidden, namely beautification (at-tabarruj) and uncovering (as-sufoor), and the reason: Your lack of wanting to adhere to the order. The greatest blessing or favor that Allah has bestowed upon us is that of Eemaan (faith) and hidaayah (guidance) and among them is the Islamic hijaab. Why then do you not manifest and talk about this greatest of blessings given to you? In summary: Is there a greater blessing and favor upon the woman than guidance and hijaab? Excuse Eight:I know that hijaab is obligatory (waajib), but I will wear it when Allah guides me to do so. We ask this sister on what plans or steps she will undertake until she accepts this divine guidance? We know that Allah has in His wisdom made a cause or means for everything. That is why the sick take medicine to regain health, and the traveler rides a vehicle or an animal to reach his destination, and other limitless examples. Has this sister of ours seriously endeavored to seek true guidance and exerted the proper means to get it such as: Supplicating Allah sincerely as He stated: Guide us to the Straight Path. [soorah Al-Faatihah 1:6]; Keeping company with the righteous good sisters - for they are among the best to assist her to guidance and to continue to point her to it until Allah guides her and increases her guidance and inspires her to further guidance and taqwaa. She would then adhere to the orders of Allah and wear the hijaab that the believing women are commanded to wear. In summary: If this sister was really serious about seeking guidance she would have exerted herself by the proper means to get it. Excuse Nine:It's not time for that yet. I'm still too young for wearing hijaab. I'll do it when I get older and after I make Hajj! The Angel of Death my sister, is visiting and waiting at your door for the order of Allah ta'aala to open it on you at any moment in your life. Allah said: When their term comes, neither can they delay it nor can they advance it and hour (or a moment). [soorah Al-An'aam 7:34]. Death my sister doesn't discriminate between the young or the old and it may come while you are in this state of great sinfulness disobedience, fighting against the Lord of Honor with your uncovering and shameless adornment. My sister, you should race to obedience along with those others who race to answer the call of Allah tabaaraka wa ta'aala:Race with one another in hastening towards forgiveness from your Lord and Paradise the width whereof is as the width of the heavens and the earth. [soorah Al-Hadeed 57:21] Sister, don't forget Allah or He will forget you by turning His mercy away from you in this life and the next. You are forgetting your own soul by not fulfilling the right of your soul to obey Allah and proper worship of Him. Allah stated about the hypocrites (Al-Munaafiqoon): And be not like those who forgot Allah and He caused them to forget their own selves.[soorah Al-Hashr 59:19] My sister wear the hijaab in your young age in opposition to the sinful deed because Allah is intense in punishment and will ask you on the Day of Resurrection about your youth and every moment of your life. In summary: Stop presuming some future expectation in your life will indeed occur!! How can you guarantee your own life until tomorrow? Excuse Ten:I'm afraid that if I wear Islamic clothing that I'll be labeled as belonging to some group or another and I hate partisanship. My sister in Islam, there are only two parties in Islam, and they are both mentioned by Allah Almighty in His Noble Book. The first party is the party of of Allah (hizbullah) that He gives victory to because of their obedience to His commands and staying away from what He has forbidden. The second party is the party of the accursed Shaitaan (hizbush-Shaitaan) which disobeys the Most Merciful and increase corruption in the earth. When you hold tight to and adhere to the commands of Allah, and among them is wearing the hijaab - you then become a part of the successful party of Allah. When you beautify and display your charms you are riding in the boat of Shaitaan and his friends and partners from among the hypocrites and the disbelievers and none worse could there be as friends. Don't you see how you are running from Allah and to the Shaitaan, trading filth for good? Run instead my sister to Allah and follow His way:So flee to Allah (from His Torment to His mercy). Verily I (Muhammad) am a plain warner to you from Him.[soorah Adh-Dhaariyaat 51:50] The hijaab is a high form of worship that is not subject to the opinions of people and their orientations and choices because the one who legislated it is the Most Wise Creator. In summary: In the way of seeking the pleasure of Allah and in hope of His Mercy and success in His Jannah and throw the statements of the devils among people and jinn against the wall! Hold tight to the legislation of Allah by your molars and follow the example of the striving and knowledgeable Mothers of the Believers and the female companions (radiallahu 'anhum ajma'een). In Conclusion Your body is on display in the market of Shaitaan seducing the hearts of men.The hairstyles, the tight clothing showing every detail of your figure, the short dresses showing off your legs and feet, the showy, decorative and fragrant clothing all angers the Merciful and pleases the Shaitaan. Every day that passes while you are in this condition, distances you further from Allah and brings you closer to Shaitaan. Each day curses and anger are directed toward you from the heavens until you repent. Every day brings you closer to the grave and the Angel of Death is ready to capture your soul. Everyone shall taste death. And only on the Day of Resurrection shall you be paid your wages in full. And whoever is removed away from the Hellfire and admitted to Al-Jannah, is indeed successful. The life of this world is only the enjoyment of deception (a deceiving thing).[soorah Aale 'Imraan 3:185] Get on the train of repentance my sister, before it passes by your station. Deeply consider my sister, what is happening today before tomorrow comes. Think about it, my sister - Now

woooow MrJibril... I thought ur an expret only on how bad and dump are somali girls.... but nice to know that u appear when pressing F1 for help.... Just kidding bro

Salam All... Nice topic Abdinuur.... well choice bro... First of all I am not against dating ppl from other nationalities cuz sometimes (not always) u should follow ur heart and since u found what attract u on a person i don't think u will think about his/her nationality ..... BUT about my self I won't be happy with a guy that is not somali, cuz with the somali guy there is a special level of understanding since we both have the same history, the same environment, the same somali way of thinking and the same language .. So what matters about dating and love is sharing and when i love someone or date him i would share him everything so i gatta choose someone that have a similar background to understand each others better. about somali guys dating other nationality girls...well that is fine but this remind me with what happen on my sister wedding last month, my cousin invited non somali girls that were wearing a kind of clothes not for a respected girls, anyway while the ppl are dancing those girls started dancing and suddenly half of the somali guys invited run to dance with them in a way that we all didn't liked ...I asked my cousin of the reason of inviting them he simply smile and said " Those girls will agree doing things that u somali girls won't agree ... take this dance as an example" .... so SOME of our somali brothers dates non somali girls to do whatever they wanna do. (NOTE I AM SAYING SOME ONLY).. And the story bro Jaber said reminded me with another story..... One of my relatives immgrated to Europe before about 10 yrs and he really was a shame of being somali and hate all somali guys and girls.... so when he decided to marry he choosen a non somali girl and what made us really mad and sad that she was non muslim too..anyway they were married hardly for one year only ... and they got a little boy ... Ofcourse she took the baby and made a copy of her ( christian ... with a strange name ) and my cousin have to pay everything .. after going to courts for the last 3 yrs he is now broke ... with nothing at all ... all the money he gathered was gone .. So that is one of the bad examples..... I got also another story for my uncle that get married to a non somali girl ... she was christain also but when she met him she started reading about islam and alxamdollelah she become a muslim and she wears hijab and acts like a perfect muslim she knows islam even more than me (who was born muslim) she is trying now to teach her mum and brother about islam ...... So my dear nomads .... there is the good example and the bad one..the point is making the good decision and this decision should be built on personality and mind.... Guess i have talked too much..... See ya lata my dears

1. Allah won't ask what kind of car you drove, but will ask how many people you drove who didn't have transportation. 2. Allah won't ask what your highest salary was, but will ask if you compromised your character or morals to obtain that salary. 3. Allah won't ask the square footage of your house, but will ask how many people you welcomed into your home. 4. Allah won't ask about the fancy clothes you had in your closet,but will ask how many of those clothes helped the needy. 5 Allah won't ask about your social status, but will ask what kind of class you displayed. 6. Allah won't ask how many material possessions you had, but will ask if they dictated your life. 7. Allah won't ask how much overtime you worked, but will ask if you worked overtime for your family and loved ones. 8. Allah won't ask how many promotions you received, but will ask how you promoted others. 9. Allah won't ask what your job title was, but will ask if you performed your job to the best of your ability. 10. Allah won't ask what you did to help yourself, but will ask what you did to help others. 11. Allah won't ask how many friends you had, but will ask how many people to whom you were a true friend. 12. Allah won't ask what you did to protect your rights, but will ask what you did to protect the rights of others. 13. Allah won't ask in what neighborhood you lived, but will ask how you treated your neighbors. 14. Allah won't ask about the color of your skin, but will ask about the content of your character. 15. Allah won't ask how many times your deeds matched your words, but will ask how many times they didn't. Funny how you can send a thousand 'jokes' through e-mail and they spread like wildfire, but when you start sending messages regarding Allah, people think twice about sharing.

Sista LadyFatima...May allah bless ya ..u just said what was in my mind....

Salam my all sistas and brothas.... First of all Welcome to the Nomad area Mr.Jibrill..... second let me tell ya this bro.... IF i didn't like a certain type of food, I won't say this food is bad or disgusts.. I would just say i don't like it .... So having a bad end relationship ( as u seemed had ) doesn't mean saying those unfair words about somali girls.... Keep in mind bro that anywhere in da world there is the good and there is the bad ... and since ur saying ALL somali girls are bad that means u must know all of us to judge us that way... I am not saying that all somali girls are angles and pure, but what i didnot liked is judging us with no evidence .... Just try to compare between somali girls and WEST girls and then just tell me the result of this equation...... and please don't let me talk about the types of somali guys that i saw in my life ( relatives, co-workers) cuz i know those sample that i met arenot a good example of somali guys .......... and ofcourse there are many good guys somewhere... so judging people without knowing them is something bad in your personality..... By the way there are better ways to express ur feelings about us ......... and also there is a better language that u can express ur self with it I will be back... gatta go now .... PEACE

IF WE DON'T LOVE >>>> WE DON'T LIVE Love = life and life = love... Without the various types of love we can't live guys.... and as u guys said that allah mentioned love in holly quran ( and allah knows about us better than us ) so love do exists and its a very nobel feeling that will make u do anything for your lover and leave the world of him/her..just to make him/her happy... PEACE

Salam... I attended the UAE University ( Located in the United Arab Emirates ) -- some of u might know it when i say Dubai... My Major is Computer Science.

An Indian "Medicine in my country is so advanced that we can take a kidney out of one man put it in another and have him looking for work in six weeks." A German doctor says, "That's nothing, we can take a lung out of one person put it in another and have him looking for work in four weeks." A Russian doctor says, "In my country medicine is so advanced we can take half a heart out of one person put it in another and have them both looking for work in two weeks." The American doctor, not to be outdone, says, "You guys are way behind, we just took a man with no brain out of Texas, put him in the White House, and now half the country is looking for work."
