The responsibility of helping this woman lies on our shoulders. She deserves it. It is despicable to laugh and berate her because her husband died.
This is entirely false and just made up. Reality is the complete opposite. Naag qabiil ma lah. When war breaks out, women and children are taken to the home base and the men fight it out.
These people are delusional. I even sent a screenshot about traditional Somali culture and it mentions that the women are a lifelong part of their own qabil and when married are seen as an ambassador of their clan when they marry another Somali clan
They’re trying to peddle a very Western and Indian idea of woman taking on her husbands identity which is foreign to Somalis since your clan is your lineage. A woman will always be her fathers daughter and your qabil is an indication of your forefathers. They’re going in extremes by claiming women aren’t part of their tribe so that they can justify cutting off women just because they’ve married out yet it’s Somali women who rally and raise money for their tribe and if one of us killed our fathers tribes would be the ones that will ask for diya NOT the husbands qabil
Exactly, that's why we have a lot of clans, who are literally carrying the names of their maternal clans. All the clans with Habar prefix, plus, other clans have "Bah Clan XYZ" to denote who the mother's clan was. Even my clan, is named after the maternal grandmother's family. In real life, every Somali woman, that has a known father, is part and parcel of that family, no matter what fantasists cook up online.
They want any excuse to get rid of a woman; marry a foreigner- bye, marry another clan, bye.
But if their clan was attacked, the female members of the clan would be the ones to raise money, cook, clean, and nurse them to health. Not to mention, how many women actually take up arms to fight and have done for centuries.
Or they are stupid enough to think they can use wives from other clans, to go to war for them. They live in an alternate universe.![]()
