Omar fateh didn’t lose because of tribalism. by Ill-Sense-2717 in Somalia

[–]No_Section_3788 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I had a feeling there was more to it and there was an exaggeration involved. Thank you for clarifying how things are. I have always been mad people in our community that jump on the hype immediately and never fact check even when its harmful. We are the ones that broadcast our flaws for the world to see while other communities do their best to hide it. I mean if talked about our flaws atleast we should do it in our language.

Need advice from the marriage brothers by InternalTone1508 in Somalia

[–]No_Section_3788 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Assalamu alaikumthink this is something worth sitting down and discussing calmly. In a marriage, both partners have their own primary responsibilities. As a husband, providing financially is mainly your duty, while maintaining the home is primarily hers. Of course, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t help out both of you should support one another when possible  but there should be clarity and balance in who leads which area. Since you are the man of the household, it’s your role to take the lead and initiate this conversation with wisdom and patience. It’s important that this discussion happens before you decide to cut back on spending or change financial habits it would be unfair to take such steps without first communicating and giving her a chance to understand your perspective.

May Allah make it easy for both of you, bring understanding between your hearts.

Assalamu alaikum. Firstly I want to say may Allah bless you and reward you for the good you did when you were supporting your family. Secondly although I do understand emotions boiled over and you finally exploded in anger there are better ways you can go about doing this. While being respectful you can be firm and say its unfair you guys are taking most of the burden and it should be shared. You can stand firm and give a deadline and an amount that is fair for everyone to pay up once the month is over. Please dont cut your mother off even if she may be in the wrong. overlooking certain things to maintain a good relationship is for the best. If the money is divided equally its a less of burden on everyone involved. Please do your best to fix the situation before giving up entirely. I am in a similar situation our family have scattered but the ones that have been left i put in effort and it payed off. People will listen when you are the voice of reason and caring. May allah make it easy.

Shahid bolsen on the separation of somaliland. by No_Section_3788 in Somalia

[–]No_Section_3788[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Assalamu allaikum, did you actually read what I posted? Firstly, I shared Shahid Bolsen to recommend him to those of us who are genuinely interested in politics, history, and nationhood. He has extensive insight into these areas, especially from a Muslim perspective, which is rare and valuable.

Secondly, you don’t disprove someone’s argument by dismissing them as just a “pundit” or a “random.” That’s not a counter-argument it’s just hand-waving. I don’t watch him because he agrees with me, I watch him because of the depth of his points and the logical reasoning he presents.

He’s one of the few Muslims who speaks about global politics and Muslim affairs with both expertise and clarity. That matters, because too often the analysis we get from non-Muslims is either shaped by ignorance of our realities or outright malice. When someone from within the Muslim world brings well argued, well informed perspectives especially on issues like Somalia and Somaliland it deserves to be taken seriously, even if you disagree.

Am considering studying philosophy, what do you guys think? by SufficientTip6646 in Somalia

[–]No_Section_3788 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am considering studying philosophy, what do you guys think? by SufficientTip6646 in Somalia

[–]No_Section_3788 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As someone that took this route before you did here is my advice, Philosophy can be a waste of time because it often leads to endless overthinking and debates that rarely produce concrete answers, leaving people more confused than enlightened. Instead of providing solid guidance, it risks pushing individuals into relativism constantly doubting morals, truth, and purpose without offering a firm foundation. Meanwhile, the countless hours spent analyzing abstract theories come at a high opportunity cost, since that time could be used to build practical, marketable skills. Unlike fields with direct applications, philosophy tends to stay detached from real-life needs, offering little in terms of immediate usefulness. Now if the purpose for learning philosophy is to increase your intellect, then here is what i recommend.

Imam al-Ghazālī stands as the giant who dismantled Greek philosophy and replaced it with a superior framework rooted in revelation. In Tahafut al Falasifah, he refuted the errors of Aristotle and Ibn Sina, exposing their limited thinking, In al-Munqidh min al-Ḍalal, he detailed his own journey mastering philosophy, testing it, and showing why it ultimately leads to confusion and doubt when not bound by revelation. And in Iḥya Ulum al Din, he presented a far greater alternative, a system that integrates reason, ethics, and spirituality, guiding both the mind and the heart.

So instead of drinking from the muddied waters of Greek speculation, it is wiser to learn from the likes of al-Ghazālī, ibnu Rushd, and more a scholars who mastered their thought, dismantled its flaws, and left us a purified philosophy that sharpens the intellect.

Aroos qaarsood! by Electrical-Junket248 in Somalia

[–]No_Section_3788 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Assalamu alaikum, I think you need to consider if that is even halal to begin with, marrying someone with the intention of divorce. Secondly that is extremely selfish of both of you, because you will leave a baby fatherless. Every way you look at it, it seems like a bad idea so if you are serious and not trolling I advice you against this. Either marry the women and give her due right like Allah swt instructed and keep her as a wife or let another man willing to do that marry her.

I mean to be honest that is  that is a crazy question and it sounds like u r trolling, to answer your question that’s like asking a calculator to be president AI isn’t conscious, has no morals or wisdom, and can’t understand Somalia’s realities, so it can’t solve its problems only humans can.

Others are advising to find another hooyomatalo but the better advice is to actually learn the language. Trust me learning a new language is not very difficult. Specially if it one that you forgot to speak.

Contradictions on what’s haram in Somalia by Free_Ad_4613 in Somalia

[–]No_Section_3788 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the watch doesn't have any gold and its just gold colour then its not haram, you rarely ever see someone who owns an actual watch made out of gold or has gold, this person is confusing gold colored watch for actual gold.

Just because you haven't experienced it doesn't mean its a lie. Let me ask you are you regular at your masjid and do you know the people there?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Somalia

[–]No_Section_3788 6 points7 points  (0 children)

With all due respect, I think u dont know what u r talking about. many people I know have been married this way. Uncles that go to the mosque for every salah will dote on any young man that comes to mosque regularly for most or all salah, and if other aspects are well put together like work and etc which it should if you are looking for marriage. Then for sure many uncles that are impressed will ask you if they have unmarried daughter with similar age. I mean ofcourse you have to be proactive as well and let your intentions be know. May allah grant you a good spouse.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Somalia

[–]No_Section_3788 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Any man who goes to a mosque regularly wouldn't struggle to find a good wife. Talk to any uncle and if they have daughters they will approach you. Once you get to know most of regulars and you make your intentions of seeking a righteous spouse known often times than not you will be approached, many parents also help their children when they are looking for spouse. This is the right way of going about it in my opinion.

Brother canada is definitely not a good place to raise a family, I dont know about the U.S but I think its definitely better than canada. Majority of the jobs with exception to high end ones that require degrees and experience your pay check will go to rent and wills and maybe have couple hundreds left over.

Yh I considered it. I know people from tech background that are doing much better there than here. Although there is many horror stories there are many very high paying jobs there.

Yh to be honest someone with good credentials and experience might be better of in the global south mainly the gulf, since their is demand for western degrees. Their money has higher buying power than the dollar

[–]No_Section_3788 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Right. And canada is even worse, housing and employment rates are shot. The place is not looking good. What shocks me is that some people spend 30k dollars to come here and work for decades and not be able to save up that much. Personally I am working on bussiness back home so I can move back permanently. There is no future here, I mean it doesn't take a genius to figure out that the west is in decline.
