...why are so many girls I know paying for their weddings? This doesn’t follow the culture and isn’t right The man is supposed to pay it is our duty Is this even halal at all? I get financial hardship but why marry when broke. The women is the backbone of the household, but not the main...

I honestly believe my greatest fear is cuckoldry. My greatest nightmare is me marrying a great girl, and then a resurfacing of some train being ran by carribeans :drakelaugh: But it wouldn’t be right if I only talked on xalimos. Same goes for men as well, we are supposed to be heads of the...

Let me start off by saying this is not a gender war I just needed some clarification.... I am aware that in majority of Islamic countries it’s either frowned upon or straight up not okay for young unmarried ladies to travel internationally on their own. Personally I could care less about the...

If you drop a Hooyo Mataalo kid in Somalia, how long would it take for them to speak A1 af soomali- seeing that they are completely immersed in it. personally I believe two months is good for basic Somali, 3-6 and there a pro. thoughts?

All this and more is discussed in the 4th episode of the Waaq-nation podcast @AussieHustler despite your treason you are still a card-carrying member in the kafir world :nahgirl: @VixR the retired fighter, we salute you:salute: @Basra I know an intellectual the likes of you would approve...

Our brothers? Since they thought that the land of the Punt was where their people came from, so my question , were the Egyptians our closest brothers?Linguistically speaking and did they share the same DNA as the Somalis in that time?

I fell in love with how fobs carry themselves. Long thick and almost block like eyebrows, pale and almost ghost like skin color, skin bleaching products in their handbags. Mashallah i fell in love with this culture!! i advise you, young somali girls who live in the west to dress like fobs. In...

The disease called Kpop (Korean pop) is infecting our women and many more. Xalimos these days are listening to Bts, Exo, Got7 and other groups. How can we stop this? answer: we cant. Our good sisters in Somalia are not like these westernized Xalimos who would kick their mothers just to get a...

Its really dying out amongst kids I noticed.. Wallaahi waan naxay. This generation little kids under the 10 dont speak one word af Somali. Imagine what will happen in 50 years time? That would be disastrous. So I am babysitting my nieces daughters of my oldest sister. I was just lazying...

How did we go from this To this In the matter of only 20 years. I'm all for modesty but this wahhabi dress is too much, is there any chance that we will restore our culture?

This song I find pretty nice. Cousin showed me it recently cause he really likes Somali music. I don’t really listen to somali music at all. It’s super rare if I do. My mother listens to it often when she is driving place and turns up at weddings. My dad listens everyonce in awhile.

I always have to repeat my name ten times to white people. Then I have to spell out another 10x. I remember in school new teachers would be calling out the register and then fall silent on my name! I mean how hard is it to pronounce: Culusow Cabdiraxiim? Do white people mess up your names?

So for the past year I have been researching Somali history and culture extensively and I have really been enjoying discovering how so well interconnected Somali merchants and kingdoms were with some of the world's greatest civilizations (e.g. ancient Egypt, China, Rome...). One of my...
