Coloow Posted October 11, 2003 Sabha; I have decided not to attend any more wedding. The costs (spiritual; financial) are too high. Even the so called wadaad weddings cost too much money that could have been used to help our society back home in africa. I miss the old kind of weddings (The afar faataxo ones)! Lakkad, yes I am from there gurba keen. I really miss speaking the "akam jirte" dialect. Back home we only spoke that dialect...do you speak it?

Nur Posted December 14, 2003 Entreprenuer and lackad I think that we may have missed the topic objective of this post, I intended it to shed some light on the moral problem of Music and dancing that appeals to so many of our people, regardless of their social, intellectual or age group, and the position of islam in addessing this issue, I would appreciate if we can talk about this problem to share your insights.

Thunder Posted December 15, 2003 Asalaamu 3alaykum What are your takes on Dikhri (dervish dancing)? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nur Posted December 17, 2003 Thunder walaal The traditional Qaadiriya, Saalixiya Dhiker circles and the Shadhiliya and Burhaniya Sufi dhiker circles of Sudan and Egypt respectively are the interface of islam with pagan traditions that Muslims came in contact with and as result Islam became the porfessed religion and content of the dhiker while paganism rituals remained the core practice of these orders. The Sufi dance is a degenerate form of wosrhip, and it is not fro Allah as the prophet of allah SWT taught the proper way to worship Allah SWT.

Coloow Posted December 17, 2003 Nuurow, saaxib, it depends isn't it? some dikri lyrics are poetic and regard praises of islam while some are not! Non-spritual sufism was about spreading islam - and played a communicative role in relaying the message. Two good examples: sayid maxamed cabdulle xasan (the poems) Sheikh aweys who took islam to southern africa. Laakin wax waliba haddii laga badbadiyo waa sun!

Coloow Posted December 17, 2003 Sundus, garamgaramland is home to the reer garamgaram who are composed of the reer qurac, reer qansax, reer garas. In recent years garamgramland was invaded by their reer mareer cousins. well, actually garamgaram is used to describe somalis who live in the northern frontier district (NFD). This piece of land was stolen by the sankadhuude-lete kpande- who call it NEP(North eastern province). I hope I have shed some light! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nur Posted December 17, 2003 Entreprenuer Bro. Walaal we need to differenciate beteen faith and fun, inshAllah, if all goes well for you and me, we shall dance in jannah with xuurul ceyn, why do you want to jumb dance with not so well scented xertii sheikh aweys, when you can be in the company of the udgoonka Xuur al ceynta? only if you focus your ibaadah and make it according to Sunnah 100% ? Nur Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coloow Posted December 17, 2003 Nuurow waa runtaa saaxib! This dhal awliyo does not dance to the sheylilah beat! However, I think if you look at the historical perspective, you would understand the reason why in dark africa the sheikhs used the dikhri. It was part of a persuation strategy!
