I disagree. remember what allah has said. women are 50% less of a men. its the men that suppose to lead the family. lead the wife, the girls, the sisters, the mothers, and the daughters. if they were doing everything allah told them to do, i know for sure women would follow. but hey that dont happen. infact is the men that doing the following these days. makes you wonder eh? why is that? most somali men are weak. too weak to look after their children, familes and daughters. but not weak anough to start a war; a civil that saw our country in flames. we here today in the west, following their culture, because of somali men. it wasnt women who went around killing, raping, burning houses. it was MEN. men are the back bone of our country. but when the back bone bends it needs to be fixed otherwise it will break. somali men have broken to tiny pieces of uselesness. not offence to anyone but just stating the fatcs. i hope our brother, sons, fathers realise what the doing to their country affects everyone including their sisters.
I agree with the first part, but what you don't understand is that it takes both partners for a relationship to function properly. Blaming one person is the easy way out. Not only are somali men not fullfilling their role properly but neither are the woman in the west. You see women asking for equal rights but at the same time want to be treated as they were in somalia. Somalis are suffering from a serious culture shock, adapting to the western culture of life but also keeping our "daqan" has proven to be difficult as a result both are left confused and divorce. I think if somalis properly educated themselves about their rights in marriage Islamically..divorces would not be as prominent as it is today.
