Gabbal Posted March 25, 2009 Allamagan, it is unfortunate but I am glad your friend insured himself. Anigu Kenyaan u baqaa. The Somalis there don't seem to understand what insurance means. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Member-sol- Posted March 25, 2009 A hotel cannot be a 5 star unless it serves alcohol according to the people who give these ratings, so how do we as muslims feel pity for someone who makes money out of haraam venues? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spare me your predictable fingerpointing and self righteousness, passing judgement on an issue that you are not even clearly informed on is typical of the style of reactionaries Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ashkiro Posted March 25, 2009 ^You seem to take this personally, if you know more, than why don't you inform him instead of taking it as an attack? Does it or does it not serve alcohol and "naked tourists" as another indicated? Go on, set the record straight. Otherwise don't expect "sympathy" from other members with a religious conscience.

Separatist Posted March 25, 2009 Atleast they should've advised him to wear a different attire when displaying the Margaritas. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nephissa Posted March 25, 2009 The idea that because they served "alcohol" or received "naked tourists" therefore deserve no sympathy is ridiculous. They were robbing nobody! It's a tragedy to see anyone's 12yrs of hard work burn down to ashes, alcohol or not! Hope they catch the arsonists soon and make real examples out of them African-tan cawaanta ah.

I personally didn't read the long article in detail but skimmed it, wasn't aware it was the work of arsonists. I do hope they catch the perpetrators of the crime. But isn't it even a greater tragedy when 12yrs of one's hard work is of no use them, but rather harms them because the means were unlawful? The irony, the owner quotes the holy book. Perhaps it was a blessing in disguise, very fortunate that no one was harmed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Five Star highest ranking a luxury hotel get minus a few who claim to 6 or two that claim to be 7 star. Burj al Arab for example is a five star hotel. If heard of fellow Somalis claiming all sort of titles such as engineer or Doctor or general and this to me sounds like we have expanded that tradition to the hospitality industry. <img src="http://dubaihot el.ws/luxury/burj-al -arab-luxury-suite.j pg " alt="" /> <img src="http://www.cyni cal-c.com/archives/b loggraphics/BurjAlAr ab_05.jpg " alt="" /> <img src="http://www.popu lar-pics.com/PPImage s/tennis-burj-al-ara b.jpg " alt="" /> Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
