Re: Have you been back home since you left last?
I went back home The Ramadan of 2007(September). I was also going to Yemen and Kenya so it was a very short trip(3weeks only
). Insha Allah the next time I go there it will be for a couple of months. I stayed in Belet Xawo and I noticed the following:
The lifestyle there is pretty simple. There were some construction of new homes/villas but not as much as the ppl try to make it seem which is really exaggerated. I also noticed that there were a lot more different sects than I thought before, there were Al-Itaxad, Sufis, few Tabligee, and even Takfirees with their own masjid who will not eat from the meat that is slaughtered by the other Somalis in the city, they have their own butcher
this city is EXTREMELY HOT to the point that you don't even need a towel to dry yourself after you shower. I didn't see as much guns as I thought I would of either, I only saw maybe 4 ppl with guns during my stay.

I heard of these people before. How did they make their way to Gedo? I hope Shabaab eradicates them from the region. Waryaa qowm lunsan. Not that Shabaab is any better.
Who would eat the meat slaughtered by boon

Re: Have you been back home since you left last?
Yea I know I was really shocked to see them in Somalia. I never once thought that they would be able to infiltrate us. Somalis tend to have too much partisanship to be affected by takfiree idealogies i used to thinkBaasAbuur wrote:Are you serious?Takfirees with their own masjid who will not eat from the meat that is slaughtered by the other Somalis in the city![]()
