Is Somalinimo compatible with Islam?

[Kaafiye]

The Somali baan nahay crew got me feeling some type of way. I am proud to be Somali but before being Somali I am a Muslim. And as a Muslim I've been taught the Muslim Ummah is like one body, when one limb suffers the whole body responds to it. So when I see a Muslim facing hardship I respond, I feel, it's the least I can do. To be told that I shouldn't show sympathy/empathy I believe is un-Islamic. That is all.

P.S don't give me but they don't cry for us crap #growup #stopbeingignorant

Of course we are Muslims first, and Somalis second. No one disputes this at all. I've said it again and again, that I consider an Indonesian Muslim to be closer to me than a Somali Atheist. And of course we believe in the Muslim Ummah. But this doesn't mean that we should let go of out Somalinimo either. That doesn't mean that we should ignore the fact that Somalis are a distinct ethnic group alongside all of the other ethnic groups that comprise the Muslim Ummah. We don't hate anyone. We just love ourselves.

And who said there's anything wrong with showing empathy towards our fellow Muslims?

[Tuushi]

People acting like they have set amount of kindness in store.

Be kind to everyone.It doesnt cost u anything.

[TheMightyNomad]

you listed ummah, Somalia's under-development, marrying foreigners and Middle East crises... then you linked them with "Xaliimos do this", wow get some rest walaal, don't let Xaliimos stress your brain.

What a slow brain, he was bringing up examples of how Psuedo religious Somalis contradict themselves and how you guys are hypocrites.

Im pretty sure you stressed his brain with that response.

Adiga horta must you insult everyone who disagrees with you? Ciyaal mamo you have a lot of growing up to do.

[TheMightyNomad]

Im ciyaal? for poinitng out how you are lying? you dont care for muslims, dont even pretend to. beenta iyo diinta maha isku mid

The fact that you are not willing to give a somali muslim the same attention and empathy you would give to other muslims proves it.

[TheMightyNomad]

Are you for real?
Re-read your comment - think about it for 5 minutes - then maybe you will understand why I pity you.

What is wrong with what I said

In simple terms -
When you're six feet under Somalia will still be here- and guess what- it won't give two hoots about you - Islam on the hand is your only saviour-
Now - no one is saying you shouldn't care about Somalia or it's people but prioritizing it over Islam is just pure ignorance.
The fact that you don't seem to grasp this basic fundamental principle is why I pity you.
Maybe - your problem is that you associate arabs with Islam which is wrong. Or you are just too young and very unworldly- again why I pity you.

Oh! mankind! We have created you from a male and female, and made you into nations and tribes so that you may know one another.-Chapter (49) sūrat l-ḥujurāt (The Dwellings)

Surah Rum (The Romans) 30:22
[b]And of His signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth and the diversity of your languages and your colors. Indeed in that are signs for those of knowledge.[/b]

I dunno how this turned into Arabs when, we were talking about poor Syrians who were fleeing their country due to war.

You can hate Arabs....but at least show little compassion to the poor Refugees from Syria.

Fuck off you munafiq. Weren't you joking in another thread about Somalilanders tahriibeya in Libya being abused? Men, women and children being raped, robbed, beaten and their organs harvested because they are powerless non-arabs.

My own cousin was kidnapped and robbed just because he was seeking a better life in Europe. I could give a shit about your cricodile tears you halfbreed ape.

Munafiq alcoholicaad tahay wass.

Sorry about what happened to your cousin, but thats no reason to talk down on poor Syrians who are escaping war in their country.

What happened to your cousin has nothing to do with the Syrian refugee crisis in Europe.

Use ur brain next time, Monkey aka Daanyeer boy.

Games are you really an alcoholic? Its a running joke here just like Basra being fat.

One thing that truly disgusts me is the fockin arab bootyclapping. Those using the muslim card are arabs more valuable than the muslims getting slaughtered in Myanmar or central african republic. Carabta ma dadka kale bey ka qiimo badan yihiin?

bro that is what i have been saying for so long, it seems today in 2015 muslim suffering = arab suffering. What is happening in Burma is 100 times worse then those syrians being killed by other Syrians , similarly CAR is a systematic genocide against muslims by Christians yet you will never see muslims talk about these places

For me somalinimo is first and Muslimnimo is second
, I know a lot will be shocked,my first identity if someone sees me it's Somali and I have been called Somali every were I go and I don't have a choice i am born Somali ,but being Muslim it's by choice, and honestly if I see two people in need and one is muslim guy and one is somali and I can help only one person I will peak a Somali guy first.
