Ciid Mubarak every one and asalamucalaykum to you all...
i know i am late to reply, but as i was reading what is new, this topic catched my attention. first of all, increasing somali divorce is big delimma and many people are unaware of it. even if we know the problem, we always look the other angle, and shake our shoulders. saying that, " its not my business it's halima's or farax" but actually what we dont know is that, what happens to somali sister or brother becomes our problem. in my own point few, i believe the only reason why somalis divorce is lack of communication, respect, and each person not knowing what is their actual duty is. as i was reading each person's respond to this question, it seems to me that, most people are blaming women. but this's what i am saying, they both should be blamed, because one single person doesnt start argument nor a problem. also, since we come to this western countries, somali people are adapting different enviroment, culture, and different way of dealing with people, and that some how confused the relationship between women and men. so all i am saying is that, let us not forget where we come from, our diin which is islam, and our culture.
thanks, and my allaah bless you all, and guide you the right path. amiin.
