UFC fighter Islam Makhachev sends greetings to the Somali community while training our future champion & 🐐 Muhidin Abubakr 🇸🇴

[Lahaine]

Wow lots of qashin on this thread

 

[Scipio Africanus]

That’s true. Samaale and Sab and Jabarti and all of those are all Arabs.

Good. Barwanis/reer “xamar”, bantus e.g are not Somalis.

 

[Burqad]

There's a reason Somalis married and assimilated Oromo slaves but kept bantu slaves as a distinct caste of people.

These ethnic groups you listed are not the majority of RW. They are a ethnic Somali clan family. The thing that distinguished them from a clan family like Dir or Darood is that they are open to assimilating non ethnics. But they are still a Somali clan family.

SXB don’t take I.M Lewis as your bible. Theee are a lot of clans in the Koonfur that assimilated their jweyne and Oromo slaves in the Waamo weren’t freed until the 1930’s.

 

[Khaem]

Why do ya'll make a big issue about basic things in somalia.
He's a Somali, he's not an ethnic, he's a benadiri who's mixed Somalis. It's not an insult to call him what he is. He wouldn't be insulted himself. He's a Somali UFC fighter.

 

[Internet Nomad]

I have a Dominican butler who looks like this. Is he Somali now too?

Well he doesn’t have somali blood.

 

[Burqad]

Good. Barwanis/reer “xamar”, bantus e.g are not Somalis.

But they are Arabs like other Somalis. Mushungli/Reer Gosha come from sheik musa shungaliya, he was quraish

Exactly he is a proud wadani and somali just not an ethnic one.

 

[Burqad]

Well he doesn’t have somali blood.

but you are basing ethnicity on phenotype and he has a Somali phenotype therefore he is Somali.

Wow lots of qashin on this thread

Fr bro was just tryna make an inspirational video for the yutes

Exactly, some weird people trying to push ideas that don't make sense.

 

[Scipio Africanus]

But they are Arabs like other Somalis. Mushungli/Reer Gosha come from sheik al-musa shungaliya, he was quraish

Nope. The Barwanis are mainly a mixture of Bantus, Indians, Somalis & Iranians.

Whereas, the Bantus are straight up Black Africans.

 

[Burqad]

He’s an ethnic Somali because he speaks Somali as his first language and he’s from a Somali clan.

 

[Khaem]

He’s an ethnic Somali because he speaks Somali as his first language and he’s from a Somali clan.

I speak Gaelic and I descend from the Khaemwaset clan therefore I am Scottish.

He's a Somali national , has Somali admixture. But he's not of the 5 clan families. He's of a mixed group in the coastal south known as benadiri. What's the issue with that?

 

[Internet Nomad]

He’s an ethnic Somali because he speaks Somali as his first language and he’s from a Somali clan.

There is a difference between nationality and ethnicity.

I don’t doubt his nationality i just don’t think he is ethnically Somali at least not a pure one.

 

[Burqad]

Nope. They’re mainly a mixture of Bantus, Indians, Somalis & Iranians.

Whereas, the Bantus are straight up Black Africans.

So are most Arabized Somalis. Darood was a Jabarti Arab who married an indigenous native (who was also Arab, descended from Hiil who was quraish). What makes that so different?

 

[Burqad]

We aren't arabs.

Your not Somali you are fr*nch

So are most Arabized Somalis. Darood was a Jabarti Arab who married an indigenous native (who was also Arab, descended from Hiil who was quraish). What makes that so different?

Ethnic Somalis are either Arabised mainly through culture & some have significant or minor Arabian ancestry.

We’re not the same as those other groups. One is a cocktail mix & the other are straight up Blacks.

 

[Khaem]

So are most Arabized Somalis. Darood was a Jabarti Arab who married an indigenous native (who was also Arab, descended from Hiil who was quraish). What makes that so different?

Hiil isn't an Arab. Darood claims to be of Arab lineage but that's another innovation done post Islam. Same way they claim Aw-Barkhadle to be from arabia when he's actually from Zaylac.

but you are basing ethnicity on phenotype and he has a Somali phenotype therefore he is Somali.

Im sorry but he doesn’t represent the average somali phenotype.

This is

Garre and Hawadle and many other clans aren’t from the five clan families but are still Somali. So what makes Benadiri so different?
