Somalinimo is a beautiful thing.

I was once in this predominantly white town this middle aged Somali woman came up to me asking me for directions like walalo ma ii sheegi karta meeshas iyo halkas i smiled and felt a Somalinimo duty to help her as she was the only Somali i saw in that town and told her ha walalo wa halkas iyo meeshas ba la raca.

[Hyperactive]

how i missed that. granpa is my favored walle. the kid will be something inshallah.

[AhmedBoqor]

Lol. @ Somalinimo equating to helping someone steal free food.

[SultanOrder]

Grandpa you did well. I always prefer Somalis over others.

When we were young (teenagers) another Somali kid a Jamaican and I lost our return train tickets in London. We stupidly put them all in one bag and forgot them in a takeaway.By the time we realized somebody must have walked off with it
Newayz the other Somali kid said "I know of a Somali restaurant in East London". We made our way there and once we got there.explained our predicament.One old Somali man said "Waar yar yar ka cunto iyo sharaab siiya." He said that and took of
After about half an hour later he came back and handed us 80 pounds.He showed us the nearest underground station,and told us
"Halkaa ka raaca treenka,ka dibna idinkey idin jirta inaad ama bus ama treen ilaa Welshkiina u raacdaan"

The Jamaican kid was like "Isn't he gonna ask for our address,so we can pay him back." We told him no man it's a Somali t'ing

Somalinimo is a beautiful thing.(SOMETIMES)

nice

Such a feel good thread but allow me to make it a little qaraar for y'll.
I almost got killed trying to help a Somali hoodrat that was getting beat up by hear Jareer bf who pregnated her. When I stopped him and put his monkey ass to sleep, another dude that was with him pulled a piece on me

I don't know but it wasn't my time to die, no other explanation.

It is a beautiful thing. I try to only help Somalis and Africans. No one else. Not even Muslims, except of course if they are from anywhere from Africa.

Why do you not help out people who are not from Africa?

So, I gave a ride to this Somali man today. I felt bad because he was walking on the edge of a thin road. I offered to take him to his destination...I almost threw up after he got in my car. He stank and looked so dirty....I promised myself never to offer a ride to anyone ever again. SubxanAllah, a dirty/smelly man like that can hurt me ee...wee ka suurtowdaa! *phew

You give rides to random strange men? Wallahi you have no shame!

We do that here in Columbus! A Somali will never pass you without offering you a ride actually. Its the Columbus hospitality! You should try sxb

SexyK, Samatr, Rabshoole, Smile, etc can attest to that!

I see 2012 is a good year for you Granpa

[gedo_gurl]

SubxanaAllah 1mansquad! Dont do anything like that ever again! Same to you Olive! You guys are crazy...I walk 2 blocks and call the police in those situations....and a vagrant is a vagrant, you couldve gotten yourself killed!

As for Grandpa...stealing food is CEEB in our culture...free food is generally ceeb isnt it lmao...reggea on Ramadan? I thought us UK Somalis were pushing it but you guys take the biscuit. I heard in America Somalis have afur in non halal restaurants...FML.

I doubt most "halal" restaurants have halal food anyway.

[gedo_gurl]

We do in the UK...they have a certificate and if its not from one of the two halal certifiers our community trust...it aint halal to us.

How is free food ceeb, and welfare isn't. Somalis are walking contradictions.

We've got the same here, but that doesn't change my opinion.

Besides, I see no sense in paying for food if I don't enjoy it or the experience. My money goes to those who earn it.


gramps,

Don't try to make sense of Somalis. They'll never take food from a kafir (not even free samples from vendors - ever see Somalis at Taste of the Danforth? ), but they'll beg him for money.

I remember once I was walking home it was like 12 am and oyster ran out of money so I couldn't take the bus and the nearest cash machine was rly far I could make it home before I could make it there and this Somali bus driver saw me walking and stopped the bus in the middle of the road and opened the door I got in and he was like why u out this time adeer u shud be home and he let me in and dropped me I front of my house instead of the bus stop the bus stop is like 5 mins walk from my house every1 in the bus was like wtf is that her dad or something



Also one time I was in an overground train station and it was raining didn't wear a coat and didnt have an umbrella this Somali guy came up to me and gave me his coat he said I have teenage daughters your age don't ever leave the house without a coat in this weather we got on different trains and I have his coat with me till this day May Allah bless him.
