Kareem99, you are 100% right.

But don't you agree that those people are disgracing us Somalis by claiming that they're dad is an Iraqi refugee one day, a Samaale another day and Dir another? Or a Yemeni guy who got lost at sea and found a tree and climbed it and was saved by a girl who he ended ...

Lol

I use to love these haplogroup DNA results for one reason and one reason only, to shatter the Somali qabiil myth. 6+ years later, I think a lot of people started to open up about the idea and started questioning the whole clan concept.

Lakinse the lines gotta be drawn somewhere, when they ...

I never disputed that most Isaaqs identify with the Bani Hashim myth. Like I.M.Lewish stated, there was a clear attempt to forge a separate clan identity via the Bani Hashim myth and distance themselves from their Dir ancestry. My argument was that there are some that still identify Isaaq as a ...

To me, that's like being asked "do you prefer your gender over being dark skinned?" How do you answer that?
I'm both male and coloured. Likewise, I'm both Somali and Surre Dir. There is no separating the two.

There is the "wax Soomaali la yiraahdo maba jiro ee waa qabiil kaliya" camp, which has ...

These things shouldn't be an issue for normal people. Allah has given everyone aqli and conscious, therefore, helping your sister/mother/wife is a must for all men.

In the West, if wifey is working or going to school, husband has to take care of house chores when she is away.

Btw, house chores ...

I've seen something like this before. Can't figure out if it's just well meaning but offensive generalisations, overzealous application of limited knowledge or perhaps someone in an abusive marriage who has normalised it and copes by giving such advice

1. Hoyadii ha uu sheego

2. Abahahii ha uu ...

Ina Samaale, in essence, what those women are telling in that wedding is, the wife should listen, respect, and support her husband. If he is financially capable, then the responsibility of working and supporting the family has been alleviated from the wife. I see nothing wrong with that. I hope the ...

Funny part is,it is usually those who women who always seem more religious but have raised saaqid kids and was married few times to couple of ''sheikhs''


There is something off about such women. Not sure about these particular ones, since I'm not from this city. I hafly wanted to do a Kanye and ...

When GubanOgoHawdJSL attacked the girl for marrying him, this is what happened

Ouch! lol

GubanOgoHawdJSL's vocabulary is limited to three words: faqash, hutu, and zoomalia. Either he's retarded or he's a fat boy crawled up in his parents ...

I get it. You insult anyone who disagrees with you, that is so intelligent. Knock yourself out and insult away if it helps you feel better.
I insult my inferiors.

I thought so, more insults to make yourself feel superior. If you were assured in yourself, you wouldn't go out of your way to call ...

Several family properties we had in Xamar were looted by Moryans using the Hawiye name, and guess what my best friend today is a Hawiye.
My uncle was killed by Moryans using the mareexaan name, and one of my closest friend is a mareexaan. Grudge and cuqdad won't do you any good, if it could, I ...

Incognito1, it would be wise that you take your own advice and stop with the cheap janbal and your hypothetical if this if that doomsday. Stop putting Borama and SCC in the same sentence and portraying the people of Borama as though they are under occupation.

The people of Borama are the ones that ...

Good point Games, I guess we simply don't know. But Winnipeg isn't exactly a gathering place for Somalis I reckon.
