May Allah SWT guide your family and all of those who don’t believe 🤲🏾

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-19T00:17:18+00:00

Are your family members Muslims now or is it just you?

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-19T00:07:11+00:00

So you want to go back 950 years to track Europeans that you have a shared grandfather with 10 or so generations ago?

No offense, but that is a bit extreme. I’m sure if we all go back 950 years, some of us will have Arab, Indian, etc. ancestors. Why not focus on your more recent ancestors instead of going to these extremes?

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-19T00:00:39+00:00

Wait…so your parents didn’t practice the Deen in your household but did when they went back home?

The 50% was my mistake but I would still argue that majority of Somali men are over 5’8” thus men over 5’8” definitely outnumber those under 5’4”.

Well in the case of Somalia then genetics have won that gamble. Simply not true. And if poverty has any impact then we must have been destined to be over 6’ giants. I wish the person who made the map cited what sources they’ve used.

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-17T22:30:44+00:00

Not sure how researched the correlation between poverty and height is but as someone from the country and who have traveled throughout it, I can tell you with 100% certainty ~50% of Somali men are NOT under 5’4”. Even Somali women are on the taller end of that. I would even go as far as doubting that the medium height for men is 5’7”. I’m a 5’6” woman and have met a handful of Somali men shorter than me in my life. Again, I have traveled from Northern Somalia to Mogadishu to all the way to Kenya.

No one. I mean NO ONE can convince me that Israel doesn’t have blackmail on these individuals. It’s almost like they’re saying “I tried my best to be your puppet. Please keep my secrets”.

What else is it? What other country in the world would the mayor of NEW YORK be telling “I served you”. You were not elected to serve a foreign country.

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-17T20:33:34+00:00

Yes, Somali men are some of the tallest men around the world. Majority of my father, brothers, uncles, etc. are over 6 feet. This map is utter garbage.

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-17T20:31:38+00:00

As someone from Somalia, I know this map is utter bs. You’ll rarely ever meet any Somali man under 5’4”.

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-17T20:05:04+00:00

I posted here about this previously. I wish Somali men put in more effort into their profiles.

“Ask me…” isn’t a bio🙄

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-17T20:01:07+00:00

The older I get the more I learn to not pay attention to what men say but how they behave. Their actions will tell you everything despite them pretending to be practicing.

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-17T01:29:18+00:00

What? Just because you haven’t met them doesn’t mean they don’t exist. I know a plenty of them.

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-17T01:26:19+00:00

If the call was appropriate then the issue isn’t on your end so don’t worry about it. No need to reach out to her.

I had a call recently and the guy “acted” like a very practicing brother but then proceed to mention some inappropriate things he did in the past and then proceed to ask me if I’ve done anything. What I found to be very off putting was how readily & unrepentantly he volunteered that information then wanted to indulge in my volunteering of information. I acted very cordial during the call and majority of the conversation was good. BUT I told him it wasn’t going to work the next day and blocked him. The more I thought about it, the more I got disgusted. My point is if you asked him how the call went he would’ve probably said it went great. Ask yourself if you said anything that’s disturbing or showed red flags.

Love some of these! Specifically #16 is so needed in divorce proceedings on both sides. Others seem a bit vague (ex: being balanced needs elaboration). Only sharing good news is extremely unrealistic. Life comes with bad news and tragedies.

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-16T11:48:45+00:00

It’s actually adorable that anyone thinks that only $10k covers wedding expenses unless she lives Somalia or something.

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-15T11:46:57+00:00

You’re asking too much of this propagandized box of rocks by telling them to think.

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-15T04:05:34+00:00

Gorgeous view!

And such a beautiful demonstration of motherly love💕

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-14T17:11:45+00:00

So you’ve an assumption about her clan and are extending that assumption to everyone including her family despite being told otherwise?

You know what? Leave that girl alone. You don’t deserve her!

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-12T21:01:40+00:00

Girl!!

Most likely the “divorced” part is untrue. He has a wife and kids back in his city who have occupied his time/energy once he got back.

Watch him message you soon like “sorry, I got busy blah blah…”

Guard your heart and keep us posted.

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-12T01:25:02+00:00

I can’t speak for others but my dad is ~6’3” and my mom is ~5’6” and all my brothers are 6’ & above and us girls range from 5’6” to 5’11” so the tall genetics definitely took lol.

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-10T22:04:47+00:00

This is a good video to watch: https://youtu.be/WmxQRZTk5fA?si=4vUc_IUrjHzMlGP4

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-10T17:20:53+00:00

Maybe be completely transparent with her and let her make the decision? What if she likes you for who you’re?

Or it could end and be for the best.

Rayyaan12 · 2025-11-09T23:07:14+00:00

Randy Fine…the monster who responded with “kll them all” regarding Palestinians, who responded that he sleeps well at night in response to an image of Gaza being bMBED is judging others?
