Salaan maryo'laaweey. [Lan banaan maroow faragshey geed ma daaroow.] If I only believed that maah maah above, babiskaan iyo bakooradaan isla xiimaayo ma igu dhaceen. Laakiin I still have every right to call it Naaso Caanood. That is my constitution SOL rights, advocated by a very reer Naaso Caanoodian jurist in here, Mudane Sophist. Abraar, Haaruun iyo Bishaaro, they know I was kidding, laakiin hadee kaftanka meel ka maray, nasiibkooda. Libaax too knows that. -
Qabyaalad at Masaajid?
Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar replied to Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar's topic in Politics
Salaan... Nuune, Sheekh Umal was here this past summer (June-July) as was in 2004, coming for the annual Soomaali Islamic Conference at summerka. Tii ka dhacday Eebbe ayaa ogaa. His staying in the city coincided at the same time qaraxyadii London ka dhacay. One of his last days, in a private meeting at a masaajidka Soomaalida, he was asked what was his personal opinion of qaraxyada Muslimiinta is biimeeyaan in general, regarding to Islaam. Sheekha refused to express his own opinion, but directed those seeking an honest answer to scholarly sheekhs' works, which happened to be in two disputing groups. He equally explained each group's reasoning and unreasoning (he later told us), but still refused to express his own opinion, or which group he leaned. The meeting was intended to be private, with some invited guests at a dinner; however, his answer was misinterpreted to mean he advocated qaraxyada la is biimeeyo. The misinterpreted version reached other senior sheekhs at the masaajid, who, without prior knowledge, condemned it. The next day the rumours reached him, and was equally mad. The next night was his farewell khudba. (Which was devoted about qabyaalada and the importance of brotherhood, and why we destroyed our nation because of this sickness, incurable qabyaalad that even wadaada couldn't escape from. I could sense Umal too realized and knew qabyaalada reached wadaada because that was the first khudba aan waligeey arkay devoted wholly to qabyaalad issue.) After the khudbada, in a visible dissatisfaction tone of the innuendo, he narrated what happened the night before that was supposed to be private and how his answer was ominously misinterpreted liberally. He reiterated--bringing a book, including, that was devoted to the issue--mab'dayada ee qabaan the two groups in Islaam, mentioning some famous sheekhs in both groups--and still refused to slip in his own opinion. Sheekh Cukaash too was here this past summer, invited by the other group, who had their summer gathering as well. I don't know if Sheekh Cukaash or Sheekh Umal is qilaafsan yihiin since both live in Neyroobi, laakiin the invitation of Cukaash by the other group says something. Eebboow noo gargaar. Aaniga gaar ahaan marhore ayaan ka quursaday reer Surwaalgaab. Dadkii islahaa dadkaan ayaa Soomaali samatabixin u eh, ha arkaan. __________________ By the way, Nuune, runtaada waaye, I personally like Sheekh Umal's khudbooyin, because Soomaaligiis is unique, even reminding me some words I long forgotten. He also adds in his khudbooyin some interesting and amusing stories, a rare breed considering other sheekhyo whose khudbooyin are strictly constructive. -

Qabyaalad at Masaajid?
Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar replied to Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar's topic in Politics
Salaan... The situation became public tonight, no holds barred, when the local Toronto Soomaali radio, Codka Beesha, devoted to this sensitive issue. Codka Beesha was interviewing one group's spokesperson about some future projects of opening a Soomaali school and what happened in this week's ciid. When the issue turned to ciid, the host had an opportunity to ask why were two places required for Salaada Ciida by Soomaalis, and also if it was qabiil-related. The spokesperson downplayed it, saying something to likes of: "Fitnada waxaa wado nin ajnabi eh oo Soomaalida isku diraayo, meeshaas Ciida kalena Soomaalida iskugu yeeray." Immediately, a senior member of other group listening the show called the radio station, on the open air, challenging that allegation and saying, (and it is a paraphrase): "Wax ajnabi la yiraahdo ma jirto, masaajidkaas Soomaalidana maamulxumo ayaa loogu soo cararay, mida ugu danbeysidna ahayd macalinka Toronto laga yaqaano dhan oo caruurta Quraanka u dhigo laga soo erye." The caller also mentioned the initial rift that caused all of this: Allowing some political Canadian members to campaign on masaajidka property (which they used to ban), breaking a mutual code on the masaajid's bylaws. He also mentioned if the "gaalo" campaigners can be allowed, why didn't the provincial and munipical candidates, who happened to be Muslims, were refused to campaign there in the first place. One thing they both agreed was the issue was not qabiil-related, which the host wanted to know repeatedly, I was told. The host privately asked both sides to come back on next weekend haduu Eebbe idmo since waqtigii ka dhamaaday. And they accepted. Next weekend ayaa la isa sugoyaa. -

Islamic courts v. C/rashid Ilqeyte
Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar replied to wind.talker's topic in Politics
Salaan... Lately, they were expanding their powerbase, closing shaneemooyin, taking over some strategic intersections. Meel ee aadanba, they finally found their match. Bullying non-armed native city dwellers who owned mini-sized shaneemooyin would get them to nowhere. Comparing these same shaneemooyin to "small Kaniisad" is pure nonsense, as they did. They can't do nothing now. They also threatened to shut Hornafrik radio station in this past week because they also propagate "gaalo" ideologies. Their threats are now nothing, since they know full well they can't bully that easily Ilqeyre, whose business ethic itself is questionable; nonetheless I agree with him this time. They needed someone who put them in their rightful place. -
S halay (Khamiistii) oo aheyd maalin ciid ah oo dadka Muslimiinta ay meel kuwada dukanayeen ayaa waxaa ka dhacday dalka Kanada magaaladiisa Torono in ay laba meel ku kala dukadaan beelaha (qabiil) iyo (qabiil) tasoo loo aneynaayo qilaaf wiigagii ugu danbeeyey ka dhex jirey labada beel , kaasoo ku saabsan dhinaca Masaajidka ah ,qilaafka ayaa ka bilaawday Masjid siwada jir ah ay dhaqaalahiisa ay u wada bixin jireen Soomaalida oo idil taasoo keentay markii danbe in masjidka ay beelaha (qabiil) ay sheegtaan in ay ayaggu leeyhiin masjidka cidii wax ka aqrineyso ee beelaha kale ahna ay warqad ku soo qoraan waxa ay aqrinayaan kadibna nin iyaga ka mid ah uu jeedinaayo taasoo keentay in ay ka caroodaan culumadii kale oo aan ku beel aheyn iyaga ayadoona markii danbe keentay in qeybtii kale ay isaga hayaamaan majidka lacagna iska aruuriyaan si ay u sameystaan masjid kale . Sii dhameystiro _________________ A little background on what conspired Dayniile website to declare qabyaalad at the masaajidka Soomaalida in Toronto. The first friction on that Soomaali masaajid broke a year and half ago. It wasn't qabiil, but the difference of religious doctrine. The difference was one group supported the right to have a political participation, particularly in Soomaaliya, including the possibility of arming to fight their cause; the other group stated being part of politics itself is sin enough. This ideological difference stems from Sacuudi sheekhs. However the incident was Soomaalinized, for, coincidently or not, one individual, who was the founding members of the Masaajid, left or was "forced out," depending who you ask. That individual belonged one clan, whereas those who remained, incidently, all happened to belong the other clan. Soomaalis being Soomaalis and their love to "conspiracize" everything suddenly had 1+1=2 conclusion. The judgement was the guy was kicked because of his qabiil, because he was the only person who "diversified" the place to begin with and they got a chance to kick him out. Then this Ramadaan another episode exacerbated the already heightened situation. A famous Quraan teacher wanted his pupils--who used to lead sometimes tarawiix prayers before--to lead the tarawiix prayers this year as usual. He and his pupils were kindly asked to leave, immigrating to another masaajid. The Macalinka Quraanka, again coincidently or not, happened to belong the "other" tribe. Skeptics had a field day and said it can't get more evident than this that qabyaalad is afoot.

De facto Itoobiyan towns
Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar replied to Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar's topic in Politics
Salaan... Haaruun, Eritrea iyo Soomaaliya isn't even close in the same league. Eritrea boqolkiiba boqol waa inaga dad iyo dhul yartahay, laakiin dadkaas yar, regardless of their ethnicity, kuligood are in a unanimous view when it comes to Itoobiya. Their hatred of Sanaawi regime is only surpassed by their equal determination of defeating it. Anaga, we are like "lax walba meeshee is dhigtaa lagu qalaa," as the adage goes. I am not too wholly convinced about it, but nevertheless I assumed it as my working presumption, we'll have somehow find a means to protect, on a Region-by-region basis, what is left of Somali territories of Somalia(South), till a suitablly historic time can be had, to go after the few cities that at the moment the indirect rule of Ethiopia(which they have, by the way, the potential to became fullly adminstered cities of Ethiopia in ten(10) years time!!). Tolstoy, how can we find a meaning, really brother, when we try hard to dismember what we've left already? Don't you think it is Tigre/Amxaari's best interest to see a weak, dismembered Soomaaliya? It is also Sanaawi's best interest, if the dismemberment isn't possible, that this current status quo remain permanent. Sanaawi may try harder not to remember how generous the former Soomaali regime was to him, living in a daarad at Lambar Afar paid for by the tax payers of Soomaaliya. He also freely travelled with a Soomaali diplomatic passport. Until 1994, Sanaawi was ambivalent that bordered being impartial to tribal politics of Soomaaliya. Perhaps he was too preoccupied setting the agenda of his newly established regime. But today (and not many people know this), he set up a whole clandestine wakaalad in Addis Ababa dedicated the study of prolonging the already prolonged Soomaali conflict, and eventually dismembering it to a proxy banana republics of Itoobiya, perhaps long after he is gone. Sanaawi supports a group or an influencial individual as long as the group or person does the long interest of his. Many think he is close to their camp, but the reality is he is close to all as long as they are doing what he wants. You can just see what happened to that fella called Shaatigaduud, who thought he was so powerful and didn't need Sanaawi's blessing anymore when he declared to be the "president" of a pseudo-independent Southwest State, which Libya supported and financed but Sanaawi was against. The result is cyrstal today how he immediately became irrelevant when Sanaawi quickly supported his two second-in-commands. Now, he is back in Sanaawi's tutelage. Fools never learn. Same with Soomaaliland and Buntiland and other factions. Sanaawi is in equal "good" relationships with both. Have you seen how quickly he got rid of Jaamac Cali Jaamac? Without Sanaawi, C/laahi Yuusuf would have long been just as irrelevant. Tolstoy, as long as we are weak, are disunited, are indefensible and are blaming one another, Tigre/Amxaar regime will be happy and try to take over the country. I would like you to emphasize more on the spirit of true nationalists, as opposed to those you refer to "pseudo-nationalists." True nationalists do exist, and as long as they do, we aren't hopeless. -

Somali Flag: True Blue or Sky Blue???
Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar replied to Faarax-Brawn's topic in General
From the 1960 constitution of Soomaali Republic, approved by the Constituent Assembly in the month of June in that same year: Article 1 The Republic The national flag shall be azure in colour, rectangular, and shall have a white star with five equal points emblazoned in its centre. The emblem of Somalia shall be composed of an azure escutcheon with a gold border and shall bear a silver five-pointed star. The escutcheon, surmounted by an emabattlement with five points in Moorish stile, the two lateral points halved, shall be borne by two leopards rampant in natural form facing each other, resting on two lances crossing under the point of the escutcheon, with two palm leaves in natural form interlaced with a white ribbon. Azure is a Latin word, itself deriving from Persian word of "ashward", as Wikipedia defines it: The blueish color of the sky. The sky itself when it has no clouds. So, since this flag is azure in colour, it therefore is the "official" colour of our flag. Not too thick blueish nor too light blueish. -

Salaan... We only think Itoobiya in terms of only ruling forcefully Soomaali Galbeed. It does rule there; however it isn't satisfied, so in the last few years, it disregards and infringes the boundary (which wasn't internationalized itself), extending by proxy to rule other towns nearby. Towns such as: Luuq iyo Doollow (Gedo) Ceelbarde iyo Yeed (Bakool) Feerfeer (Hiiraan) Matabaan (Galgaduud) Golgodob (Mudug) Buuhoodle (Togdheer) The country of Lion of Judah is taking its time, extending metre by metre until it reaches Xamar itself, intaan isku mashquulsanahay.

Warbixinta Qaramada Midoobey: Dhuxul
Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar replied to Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar's topic in Politics
L ivestock killed by drought in Somalia. A serious drought has taken hold in parts of southern Somalia and thousands of people are facing significant water and food shortages, a minister of the transitional government told IRIN on Thursday. Muhammad Abdi Hayir, Minister for Information of the Transitional Federal Government (TFG), said the drought was most acute in the regions of Gedo and Middle Juba and parts of Lower Juba. "The poor Gu rains [of March to June], coupled with the almost total collapse of the rural water system, were the cause of an impending crisis," he said. A 200-liter drum of water was selling at around 200,000 shillings (about US $20), a sum of money the majority of the population cannot afford, he said. He added that if the Deyr rains [normally due in October/November] are poor or late, "then we have a serious crisis on our hands". Reports the government was getting indicated "large numbers of livestock and a number of people have already died", he said. The UN World Food Programme (WFP) Deputy Country Director for Somalia, Leo Van der Velden, said aid agencies were in the process of delivering 2,400 tonnes of food to some 225,000 beneficiaries there, but insecurity and logistical problems had hampered operations. "We are aware of the situation. It is aggravated by civil strife. In Lower Juba, for example, you have marginalised groups which are vulnerable," der Velden told IRIN on Thursday. "Aid agencies do not have complete access to these people due to insecurity and logistical problems." Hayir said the livelihood of most of the people in Somalia revolved around livestock and if livestock, already weakened by lack of water and pasture, started dying "then it is only a matter of time before people start dying". The deteriorating situation was already leading to the massive movement of people and livestock toward the river Juba area, which would cause environmental problems and could also contribute to insecurity. "Somalis are nomads and most often fight over water and grazing," he added. The TFG was calling on the international community to assist before the situation turned into a catastrophe, he said. Trucking water to the most affected districts should be a priority, as well as feeding those who had lost their livestock, he stressed. Der Velden said efforts to deliver food aid had also been affected by recent hijackings of ships off the Somali coast. Two of the ships had been chartered by WFP to carry food to Somalia. "We had problems with the vessels that were hijacked, but we are looking for alternatives, including bringing in food by road," he added. NAIROBI, 27 Oct 2005, Reuters/IRIN _________________ It was unheard of or very, very rare a drought to occur in Jubbooyinka before the war, and now it is increasinly becoming a commonplace. Also in the other day, the environment minister of Kenya was attributing the increasingly droughts happening in NFD to the desertification of Jubbooyinka. Another warlods-made catastrophe. :mad: -
