Did you ever bother to find the meaning of a "refugee"? You don't have to be fleeing from a civil war to become one, you know!

I haven't seen the horrors people have lived so I am thankful to Allah for that and hope He eases for anyone that had to undergo it.
I was legit in UAE and the States. I didnt seek refuge, even my ancestral homelands were not affected by the civil war alhamdullilah

Everytime I read these refugee iyo qax stories, I feel like I'm missing something, most stories I read wasn't so appealing, just rafaad iyo calool xumo, but still, I feel left out, if that even makes any sense lol

Like the Somaliland kids claim, I would say the civil war started in 1988 too. :|

Bro i refuse to believe a toddler can remember such vivid details. You tell one thing you did as a 2 year old, that hasnt be retold by your mother.
