Assalamua a'leykum,

The Messenger of Allah (sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam) said to Mu'adh as he turned towards Madinah "Those people think that the ones most closest to me are the people of the household. Indeed those most closest to me are the pious and righteous, whoever they are, wherever they are." [Ahmad & Tabarani]

It was said to Salman al-Farisi, 'Give yourself a lineage O Salman!' He said, 'I do not know of a father (for me) in Islam, but I am Salman Ibn Islam.' [Siyar]

And the poet said,

It is enough of an honour for you that you are His slave
And it is enough of a boast for you that He is your Lord
* i.e. Allah, `azza wa jall

Nice avatar Fisabililah!
Jazaka Allah khair for the reminder. But it will take million years for us Somalis to get beyond the clan mentality.
