Sister1000 Posted June 5, 2009 I know the answer is very broad. But if you had to describe somali culture, what would you say. Im not somali but Im just curious about what somali culture is like. So if you had to describe somali culture, what would your reply be? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aaliyyah Posted June 5, 2009 we have a beautiful culture... we got our own traditional clothings that if you saw us wearing it you would just sigh lol what else we got our own distinct dances,food, poetry... all I can say is few words wont do justice to sum up what our culture is...live with a somali family for a week (thats a somali family that practices their culture) and am sure yu will fall in love with it..or attend a somali wedding ... salaam Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aaliyyah Posted June 5, 2009 why is it impossible? find a somali family and tell them you wanna learn about somali culture..it should not be so hard I assume!! anything is possible if you put your mind to it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What attracted me first was how hospitable and kind they were. The more I learned the more I just loved it. I find that many Somalis (even those that are non practicing Muslims) have some Islam in them. (I hope my idea is coming out clearly.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aaliyyah Posted June 5, 2009 ^yeah you made it quiet clear dear sis, we are very humble and grateful to know there's a sister out there who has such a high regard of us. Thank you lol@ the typical husband..that would be something along the lines of a dude with a bakoorad(cane) expecting a hot casho(dinner) salaam Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ibtisam Posted June 5, 2009 Sister1000, Amina/Tammy can probably tell you better, you see me and Sabriya are bias, we think Somali men the king don of mankind, anything we say is bound to be coloured. P.s. Tammy Wlc/ I'm on ur facebook and been using your website for about a year. Brother named Adam posted on on SOL last year. Your site rocks. Mashallah Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
