[Hyperactive]

[quark]

Murax just dont do what some guy I know did, he put the soryo money in a grocery bag and his uncle had to nip out mins before the meheer and get the cimaamad

BTW.:Congrats bro.

[RovingMadness]

Congrats!

[FAH1223]

murax, you better invite me to the nikah

[sexy-kitten]

Murax, just follow your mother's advice. Speak when spoken to. Put your two sense every now and then and everything's OK!

Congrats tootsie! I hope you have a memorable guur and a long lasting marriage. It's kinda easier being the girl I guess lol.

[Shirib]

dadka salan and shut up for the rest of the event. Your only job is to say asalaama alaikum, shake hands and be there. Your delegation will do all the real talking.

It pretty interesting though, older Somali men, have a way with words

whats this sooryo business? first its money for maher, then wedding, then honeymoon, and now this random sooryo nonsense. yaab. they should call it a mugging and not a marriage.

still mabruuk

it's cultural right and not islamic? are we allowed to take coupons to the family instead of money?

Meher is Islamic, and is a must. The party is all cultural. I'm not sure about the sooryo

[DropkickMurphy]

sit there and smile(which if the family is real traditional maali fam they'll prolly think that you are bit mental or doqon)lol

Very true. If you don't talk and just sit there like a statue then people will you are slightly retarded or something. I didn't have to worry about that. I had my abti attend my formal doonitaan on my behalf.

[Mr. Yungnfresh]

Congrats bro, Ilaahay Ha Kuu Barakeeyo.

Walaashay baa la soo doontay recently, and all my brother-in-law did was give his Salams when he came and sat down and smiled occassionally. You know Soomaali odeyaal love the sound of their own voice so just let them do what they enjoy doing and just stay under the radar.

I agree, parents are making it way too difficult for the youth to get married but then complain about their daughters getting ran through by madows.

[mahdi01]

Mambruuk. brother this is number one rule don’t talk too much just smile and make an eye contact with the person speaking and nod your head as a gesture of agreeing with him, good luck the weatherman is predicting a heat wave in Virginia and DC area this weekend.



Qoraxeey… I know why murax didn’t want to release this news at the spg room first, cause you guys going to ask him a lot of personal questions, I am guessing the girl is Egyptian if not Eritrean, Murax is known to shop around outside of the neighborhood


Shirib……. only the nikaax is allowed under islam Sooryo and all other money paid is cultural thing

[Murax]

Thanks for all the advice. And congrats. I'll try to strike a fine line between being quiet while at the same time not seeming like I'm mentalu unstable. Will also work on the fake laugh FAH mos def man
