U.S. seeks to revoke citizenship of Somali-born Muslim cleric

[soomaali1987]

Why do we care?...because his imam?

[Machiavelli2]

Can someone update us with the court proceedings. I agree there is more to this story but if the young Somalis who were falsely accused of running an illegal underage prostitution ring were all exonerated, he couldn't have a better jurisdiction to defend himself freely and fairly.

Please stop labelling others who have a different view on the issue of a less of Muslims. It's only a case of revocation of a citizenship and not a case of deportation or imprisonment.

90 percent of Somalis sought asylum with magac been ,age been ah,marriage been ah,qabil been ah,thus stop with the hypocrisy.making a few trips around the world and not disclosing his other wife is hardly the stuff of an evil Wahhabi conspiracy.no logic with these dead brains of snet.they can't reason or discuss the matter at hand without digressing into the valley of harta sheikh.

Every Somali lied to get to the west, from Ayaan Hirsi to Mohamed Idris, caadi iska dhiga.

Waryaa Cousin Gabre, he didn't lie about this wives. He told the US Consulate in Saudi Arabia that he had two wives. But due to the one man and one woman marriage law in the US, he was told he can't be married two wives in US, so he was told to only list one of them. He didn't bring them here initially. The last I know his wives were in Saudi Arabia. That was the permanent residency application.

When he was filing the citizenship application, he mentioned the 2 wives. They told him the same thing: "No application can be approved, only list the one in the US and we don't count the ones overseas."

Unless the sheikh decides to leave the US altogether, we're gonna raise the lawyers' money, and we're gonna put up a good legal fight all the way to the US Supreme Court. If a good lawyer takes a look at all of the facts, including the applications that the sheikh initially filed, the government will be proved to be incompetent.

p.s. the FEDs could not find any proof that the Sheikh is involved with extremist groups, as he is the opposite of these wild groups, so they found this little useless charge that will carry no water in the court of law as a pressure point. Their agenda is to get him to "cooperate" with them. Apparently, the powers that be want all of the religious scholars tow the line and be part of the program. For the ones overseas, they want to use the authorities in the country they live to pressure them; the ones in the west, it is immigration papers if they couldn't find another charge.

You're the man, brother Mr Baastounit, saying it like it is.

99% of somalis lied to get to the US, when they get there they preach ignorance, continue tribalism and contribute very little in over 25 years. They continue to practice a foreign religion that was brought to them by their masters (the arabs) and cannot for the life of them assimilate to their new environment. Furthermore, the ganga activity, the drugs, failed marriages etc etc and what you have here? an ethnic group that just cannot mold to the american ideals. Lucky for us, obama is in charge and another democrat will be in charge next because if I was POTUS i wouldn't worry about the Mexicans but i would kick every Somali back to their country.

Gegi defending the sheikh means only one thing.

100% certain that the sheikh is not Idoor.

Istaqfurullah, I think you need to repent, Jalaludiin. I would be defending Sheikh Mustafe Ismaaciil (May he never see any harm). The last I check he is HY.

No, I know Sheikh Mohamed Idiris and he is the most reasonable sheikh that you can find amongst the Somalis.

I am also believer that once we (Somalis) allow people with dubious agenda attack our Islamic scholars, we're doomed as people. Just think about the precedent that some people are setting. They're attacking an innocent sheikh that they have no knowledge of. Subhaanka Yaa caddiim. I just hope and pray the trend that I've seen in this forum is not a reflection of our society. Because if it is, we're in a dangerous position.

Besides, as a Muslim, you should be defending an Islamic scholar who is pushed around by 'the powers that be' and minions among us.

Sheikh Idiris is a great sheikh as far as am concerned which is why I didn't even bother to read the accusation against him. I am with the sheikh.

Coming back to my comment about the idoor, you need to stop loosing your rag at the mere mention of khatumo. One Isaaq member will say something about khatumo or ssc and Sheikh Gegi start calling us all F Street children and kufaar raac
I stop reading your Islamic related topic since you kicked us out of the ummah .

First, I am not a sheikh; therefore, that title shouldn't be attributed to me. I just love our deen. My defense is for love of my deen, and people who are here not to defend themselves.

Second, I have never taken anyone out of Islam. Subxaabka ya caddiim. Who am I to do it?

Third, I'll ignore the rest of your comment since you failed to be objective! Re-read my fadhikudirir comments, they're only reaction

Finally, this thread is about the report on Sheikh Mohamed Idiris and false accusation against him. Stop turning it into a gegiroor against certain beel

[NoAngst]

This is whole story makes no sense. They're really deporting him because he didn't report having other wives in Saudi Arabia? Really?
