Happy mothers day for all the moms, the mom wannabees and the mothers of the moms in here and throughout the community, actually all the moms everywhere.

I wish them all the blessing in the world...

Hooyo La'aantaa aduunyadu hubaashii Hurdo kama baxdenee.


One question though....what does Islam say about the celebration of this event?? and how and who invented it??

I hope they dont call this Bida'a

Cawaroow, Mothers day should be 365 days a year saxiib

You know what Cambaro(magaacaan ka cabsaday ) you are right...but..

Mothers take care of us babies 364 day, the least we can do is show them some appreciation throughout and dedicate one day for them...thats the least...dont you think??

I do think celebrating mother's day is prohibited in Islam, because it's an imitation of the gaalo, and anything that imitates gaalo is definitely not excluded. And shouldn’t be celebrated, Even though the celebration is for a good cause. .

I thank my mom everytime I get a chance to.....but not on mothers day

-I am a rebel without a cause baby.......

lol@Cawar....hayeee..so tell me, have u prepared anything special for hooyo today?

i haven't spoken to my mother in almost a year.

but i do think about her.

I don't know about you guys but the hooyooyin in my neck of the wood put on 70s retro bash... the outfit, the music, the spirit... the whole nine yards... some even get their freak on and break dance.

your joking right? I hope your not referring to Somali mothers break dancing ? Cuz that's just impossible.

In Islam, we don't just recognize our mothers efforts and struggles on one day, but everyday, inshaAllah. Wish everyone did treat every day as mother's day.

This is bidca in islam and all bidca leads to hell fire !

It is haram like Mohamed's birthday celebration.



<<< (is there a dot next to this nickname?)

you know cawaroow you will be asked in aaqiro how many single mothers ayaad u nuurisay

i made one single mother happy so happy that she wanted a dimond ring next happy mothers day

Hadraawi's Hooyo La' aantaa.........Translated by...Rooda Aideed Raage.

The greatest Somali song ever

Oh Mother! Without you

The world would surely
Be perpetual darkness,
Devoid of light.

Folks wouldn’t reach
Planets in heavens.
Like hawks wouldn’t
Soar to looming stars.
With guided ambition Nay, wouldn’t have aspired at
Sphere in space.

Verily one lead by your flawless
Devotion the right path never would lose.
Oh Mother! Where the world is today
Surely you paved the route.

The many valiant you have carried
Held dear on your bosom
Fed from your breasts
Are countless, and
Incalculable.

When your daring son awe inspire others,
You give birth to a fierce knight,

Oh Mother! Thou are remembered.

When your charitable son
In whose house the destitute
Rely to feast freely, gives kindly to please
Allah. In the presence of indispensable man
Oh Mother! Thou are remembered
When your son of purpose with clear vision,
Achieving an objective sets another and leads his flock hither.
When you give birth to an envied gallant
Oh Mother! Thou are remembered.

When your impartial son of foresight
Thwarts conflict through persuasion,
When halting the perils of war, he snuffs
Firestorm, and intercedes to lead humanity.
Oh Mother! Thou are remembered.

When in composition and song
Your famous artist
Creative and ingenious
Transporting through poetry
Reveals God given talent,
When you give birth to an endowed instinct
Oh Mother! Thou are remembered
Women Surely are the founts of life.
Those much desired women coalescing
Like concentrated forest,
The clamour of all men, These beauties
Are thy daughters.
When thoughts of matrimony invade
Your poised lofty girls,
Like the boughs of a tree
Adept and stylish,
Splendour abound
Unblemished duly wed.
Oh Mother! Thou are remembered

Oh Mother! Without you
Spelling would have been inconceivable.
Without you Mother, Expression would render unthinkable
One, whom you have not indulged,
Not seldom with lullabies fed
One,you haven’t doted upon,
Surely won’t mature.

Thou, are the house of adulation
Thy abode is of compassion.

Oh Mother! On your back
One attains peace.

Oh Mother! On your lab
Sleep is pure.

Oh mother at your hem
Shelter is most secure
Grandeur! Oh mother
Thy cultivation is.

Resilience and richness and
Tranquil Downpour.
Thou are boundless delight
Thy school is of moral rectitude.
Thou are root of ritual.

In thy existence, Oh Mother!
Compliments and salutation
I impart upon thee.

The cape of distinction
I drape around thee Oh Mother!

Oh Mother! Your demise
Is my eternal woe.
I will forever
Sing on your tomb
In my head and heart
I will embrace thee prized
I will bewail thee with every
Winged and wild beast

Live resplendently here.
Prosperity in the hereafter.
Oh! Mother Prosperity in the hereafter.

aduun kadoon, shakadii gaaladee noo keeneen. Warhooy dadyahoow, love your mothers daily, and dont give us these once a year celebration for mothers gaalada celebrate.
