Why does our beloved religion promote unity?
Why do all intellectual and well advanced people promote unity?
What is the wisdom behind unity?
Why are the most united countries the most advanced?
These are examples of questions we can ask each other about unity. Us Somalis we are known in the world as the failed people, poor, illiterate and all the bad names you can think of. But sadly we Somalis cannot understand the reason for our misery because we are more focused on hating each other, fighting each other and opposing each other. Let it be division between a clan, a sub-clan or a sub-sub-sub clan. The only way for Somalia to be peaceful and well-advanced is by unity. If Somalis unite, we will not see WFP shipping food AID to us, if Somalis unite we will not see dusty towns with ugly buildings, if Somalis unite we will not see high infant morality, if Somalis unite we will not see poverty, if Somalis unite we will not see the humiliation of our people around the world, if Somalis unite we will become the most blessed people in the world, if Somalis unite we will less chance of going to hell-fire. Hatred is for losers, hatred is for people with inferiority-complexity, hatred is for people with no heart and Imaan, hatred is a curse.
I thought we should promote unity in this forum and keep this thread alive, by posting quotes and proverbs about unity, inspirational videos about unity, intellectual discussions about unity, actual events about unity and Islamic teachings about unity. If you are careless about this topic, then I advice you not to participate or troll on this thread.
Some nice quotes about unity:
“When there is no enemy within, the enemies outside cannot hurt you.”
― Winston Churchill
Some nice videos about unity (both Islamic and non-Islamic):“The Destiny of Man is to unite, not to divide. If you keep on dividing you end up as a collection of monkeys throwing nuts at each other out of separate trees.”
― T.H. White
Somalia unite! Unite as Muslims and Somalis, unite with anything that brings you closer to each other! We have more similarities than differences. We are one people!
