Masjid al-Qiblatayn in Zelia

[Canuck]

Masjid al-Qiblatayn is a mosque in Zeila, situated in the northwestern Awdal region of Somalia.
The masjid's construction dates to the 7th century, shortly after the hijra. It is the oldest mosque in the city, and contains the tomb of Sheikh Babu Dena. Though now mostly in ruins, the edifice features two mihrabs: one oriented to the north toward Mecca, and the other oriented to the northwest toward Jerusalem.

Stop speaking about Dir land.

Go speak about something else. This land doesn't belong to you nor does it have any of your history.

It was built by Arab immigrants who were running from Arabia to Abyssinia. Some stayed in our land to spread the religion.

Nope he isnot Somali at all, rooble was bullied lot in Somali forums and he became over sensitive because of Djibouti westernized culture (majority are Dir) and Somalis made fun of djibounti women' manners. So, he has this crusade to slander every Somali woman. This guy( chinhahsan) was banned lot here and confirmed Oromo man.

Don't trust rooble and what comes from his side, rooble is Somali but as I said he has anti Somali views. Clearly he taught this troll the right abtiris. For 3 times, this Oromo troll has made the same thread of mentally ill woman in Minnesota. And every time, rooble will come and backs him.

Long live the republic of Somaliland!

I insulted Somalis because my people and you are not the same. We are Dir that became Somali due to political circumstances, we existed before you. Dont think just because we share a language that we are the same people. We are not.

When I insult Somali women, its your women I was insulting. It doesnt include women are from my people, Dir and Samaroon women are the best women int the WORLD Wallahi iyo billahi

 

[Chinhahsan]

Like I said, relax he is not Oromo.

He/She is making things up about me.

It's true I did insult their women. Its because He/She insulted our Samaroon women and these different hypocrites supported that! So I made a thread to protect our women.

He/She didn't tell you that info though!
