Somalis and envy

[JamalAddow]

There's way too much envy between Somalis. Say if a person becomes successful, they'll make up stories about them so their success doesn't seem much or to make themselves feel better. They basically won't allow success but themselves. How hard is it to say mashallah and move on.

This is the same with different qabiils, you'll always see the success of one group being put down due to qabiil. The Success of a Somali of any clan should be the success of everyone.

read up on Schadenfreude

it is the pleasure humans get from the
misfortunes of others. This word
is taken from the German language.
The literal English translation is
'Harm-Joy'. It is the feeling of joy or
pleasure when one sees another fail
or suffer misfortune.

[AgentOfChaos]

Most Somalis love to praise and boast about the success of other Somalis but only if they happen to be their clan member.


Go to "Positive Somalis" thread for proof.

[Adali]

Never feel jealous, waa shuqul naageed.

actually nin iyo gabadhiba xaasid way noqonkaraan, it's a matter of having a sick heart that refuses to say alxamdulillah or maa shaa Allah.
