I believe the killing of this innocent man has nothing to do with the publication in Europe. It is just that some bad pple ,Takfeers, live in Mogadishu, and are responsible for this. they kill kids watching football games, people celebrating new years, Muslims don't do thse kinda of acts. I hope UIC would do some action and bring to justice these horrible creatures. :mad:

Ring tones make me crazy, i almost broke co-workers phone who left it ringing at his desk. Mine, silent mode, with beep once. but yes, you could get the character of the person thru the ringtone. There was this particular ring tone, i remember, from one guy,it goes like this... Abdiyoow, Abdiyooow, Abdiyooow ,Abdiyooooow, IQabo what attention seeker?

Ok Cawralo,there are many bad memories and good ones, it is difficult to understand and predict woman specially somali ones, lol, but what i find that works for me is not to rush. I start normal conversation, and see and read the mood of the person, even if it is the one I was looking for, to play cool slow works for me. One time,I couldn;t time to talk to this girl ,she was invisible, and every time i call her @ home, her mother would pick the phone, then i asked a chinese girl to help me out, she spoke to the mother, telling that she was her school mate, and when she handed the phone, i took it from her. How much trouble we have to go thru to get to know some girls.

crazy story,

Lol @ Buuryo Qab,

Somalia 0:5 Ghana

first, may i ask,why do you wanna know?,u candidate for second? Generally marrying second wife was not that popular in OLD Somalia, and was mainly isolated for Dumaal etc. But for the last decade or so, the trend is becomin common. But WHY would some1 go 4 second, third, etc? the are many know factors which are contributed for this,like, Ego, that you are better than others if you have more wealth,( thinkin a second wife as extra asset). and some unhappy marriege! one should make his first marriege success before going for second which is permitted in ISlam.

Originally posted by sheherazade: U appear to let the men off the hook using ignorance but refuse such comfort for the women. Both non-action and action can stem from ignorance but I don't believe using the ignorance explanation so freely does the matter full justice. To assume a loving father or mother is incapable of wronging their own child is denying the capability of the human to commit injustice and crime in the name of love. We are complex creatures; a caring parent can still inflict pain; such is human nature. Somali men know about it every time they have sex with a Somali woman; stop pretending they're clueless. Not doing anything is a choice just as doing something is; the choice to conform or not is available to each parent. They're all in it together or it would have fizzled out long ago. [/QB] Some Somalis believe it is a "religious duty", and would break any law to do it. It isn a bad custom, Somalis say, Caado lagooyaa Cadhe Alle bay leedahay,so it is obvious how somalis are adamant and stick to cultural beliefs. Many countries do have bad customs, have u observed how some Kenyans make this BIG cut in their lips, and put some rings. Insha Allah ,with massive education, this horrible culture will die out. Already, there is so many success stories from back home. Ps. My apology for my misunderstanding earlier.

I believe he did it out of ignorance, and didn't kno the implication of what he did. What kinda father would do this barbaric torture, to daughter,He could be loving father,and cares more than you know. BTW,I guess you have some serious issues with FAARAHS,It is the women who carry out this operation, and it is the mothers who still insist,somali men know little abt it.

Considering the portion of our women who went thru this,the Swedish government should be forgive this innocent man, He did it out of ignorance,He must have believed in it and thinking he was doing the best for his daughter. Those of you who are hard on the father of the girl, ,you are too narrow minded,the guy spent all energy and money, taking the daugher home, why, cuz he cared, and loved and believd FGM,i guess there should be awareness on this topic, so more girls will be saved from this, not only in west,but also in majority back home.

Firs Lady, you are a brave girl, good luck and may allah help in your search. You may aslo your family, friends, to match some1 you liked, or you believe you may have some thing in common, lots of girls out there are being creative on getting what they want........

Bilal, good luck and hope it works for you man, the world is becoming one village, and in the future, there will be no black, white,yellow, green,no certain groups, or ethnicity, as inter-marriages increases. Alle-Ubaahne,take it easy, relx,this is your site, and don't let the Dhociloos get into you man.

what is the point of fathering a child at older age, say,60+. anyway, interesing read.

with inside source, it is confirmed now, that Baidoa is next for Maxakiimta.

Originally posted by Reality Check: I just don't understand why so many Somalis are supporting this group of rebels. I think u have been sleeping in cosy peacefull environment in the west for the last decade, and have no idea of daily mistreatment the somalis faced in those areas, I support the courts cuz I know they will bring some form of stability. So dear, Somalia does not concern for pple like you, leave this place for once

Indeed, it is true, and they are coming,May Allah be with them all the way.

With the mass supporters everywhere , what is happening is revolution, and Baidoa can never resist what is coming to them,I hope they make a deal with Maxkamadaha before it is too late. My heart is with Maxakiimta, God bless them.

good one, anyone can learn any language if u put an effort

remember marriage is an religious obligation :cool: [/QB] Marriege is recommended, but not religious obligation.

I agree, No study will show you how certain ethnic groups are smarter, or otherwise. and don;t be put down by lack of developmet in Africa. BTW, from your avatar,the way you ask Qs, are u white, or trying to be white?

Check this video with promising young somali sudents studying to be dentists. Somali Dentist Students Hey, are u one them?

Local people fund the Courts, and most of them are not as believed radicals, or fundamentalists, they are just normal people who hate, and are fed up with criminal worlords, Wouldn't you fight the warlords for free, to help the innocent hostages they had for 15 years?

Working in morgue must be the worse, so far............. I once worked in summer, december and January in fish company, damm, how much i hated ...till today, the smell is still in my head.

the funniest names i seen so far........ one father named his two sons, Bigays and Cadays, he must have loved tea so much. I was also shocked to see a boy with the name SHUKRI. :eek: Warning, the name HAMDI is masculine,(arabic) and is 4 boys, Hamda is for girls. Fav Somali names for girls, Siman, Bilan, Maandeeq, Indhadeeq,Shankarroon, the names for boys and girls Tiriig, Ayaan, IImaan?? anymore
