Only Isaaqs I've Met So Far

[Twisted_Logic]

Too many Isaaqs in Dubai

I met people from almost all of their sub-clans

Isaaq & Dir
Majerteen & Warsangeli
Habar Gedir

Together account for 98% of all Somalis here

Dude are you really living in Dubai???
Isaaq are a small minority today probably 10% of somalis in the UAE.
Up to 95 there were nearly 100,000 somalis in the UAE mostly in Abudhabi and 3/4 Isaaq and the rest Dhulos and Warsangeli and Gadabursi
a very small percentage of hawiye and other daroods.

nearly all of these fled for Europe and Americas and the rest returned to somaliland....

after 91 an entirely new population of somalis that do not speak arabic at all came mostly from moqadishu
today most somalis in dubai are hawiye .

I was going to point this one out, but you beat me to it. If and when it rains in Dubai, the umbrella's go up in Xamar

Most Somalis in Dubai are MJs (reer Bari) and Hawiye

[gurey25]

yes MJ and hawiye....

the UAE was very different when isaaq where practically the only ones there..

i mean every sub clan had thier own maqaayad.

The somali commuity in London during the early 90's was practically all Isaaq; seamen and refugees, aswell as other reer waqooyi such as dhulbahante and ogaden. In my area we had only 5 somali families including mine. After 1994 and more recently 2006, I would say the majority of the somali community in the city is reer koonfur, ciddey yihiina ma ogi, koley hawiyey wada noqon karaan.

Where Iam they still are 90% Isaq

[Cumar-Labasuul]

Cumar always says the truth, in London, all Somali clans are represented.

In Cardiff, Sheffield, Liverpool are still Issaq majority cities (excluding the native British)

Is Southall Issaq area as well? who owns the restaurants there?

in Slough, all Somalis can be found.

That is true, when I was younger say in the mid 90's I knew all the somalis in my area on first name basis, their families, qabil (90% of the time issaq). But post 2000, my area is swamped, walahi I could see other somalis and we dont even say salam to each other.

Southall is def a good mix. Issaq, dulbahante, hawiye, everyone is represented.

North london used to back in the days only isaaq, but the last 12 years lots of hawiye families have moved there For instance Tottanham used to be full of isaqs back in the days Now and days There are lots of Yalaxows running around Same story woodgreen, Anything east of hackny is HJ

[Cumar-Labasuul]

Lord Diplock, the only area of london with a majority Isaaq Population is East and Woolich. There is even a somali mayor in tower hamlets (east) he is HJ
In my area NW, it is majority reer koonfur

[ToughGong]

The mayor Ina Sanqoore we were good friend back in the day

In my area NW, it is majority reer koonfur

How did he achieve that? I thought Tower Hamlet is a Bangladeshi area? or maybe they voted for him as a Muslim brother?

NW? you mean Harlesden, Stonebridge, Willesden and Wembley area? heaps of Hawiye there

Many Hawiye in the north and south London as well. West London is pretty mix.

I have been to East London twice in 13 years, I just dont like the area, there is high unemployment in that area of London.

All you guys are the from the west? who else is in London here and which area?

[Samatr]

u know alot of people make it sound like as if this website is for real, its fake.. in reality i have friends from all walks of life let alone difernet qabiils.. i would say i got more hawiye friend than i have isaaqs here, but thats just me.

all my family in amerca live in some place called Bay-area in the westcoast, 2 of my unclesare married to white women, never been to the usa, inshalla 1 day though.

ma jibaaxaa ku adeera

It's a small world I guess.

[DisplacedDiraac]

Liverpool has a good mix of both Isaaq iyo Darood (mostly warsan). I wouldn't say Isaaq is the majority.

Sheffield, is by far a isaaq majority city, i'd say 95% *or even higher*

Lesta, from what i've heard its a darood headquarter

BHAM? no comment.
