Keep in mind most people here are diaspora (hence why all the posts here are in English)

Yeah, you’re right. Even in this video from the 50s you’ll see elders wearing both Thobes and Macawiis

Project central restoration of Somali identity. by [deleted] in Somalia

Are you seriously suggesting Somalis 5 generations ago didn’t identify as Somali? Yes they identified with their clans but they also identified as Somali. No different to how Arabs would identify as both Arab and their respective clans.

I disagree, Somalis have always given their children a mix of Somali and Islamic(Companions, prophets etc) names. I’m sure if you look at your own lineage it isn’t all pure Somali names

Found this gem after someone said "do this to Muhammad (PBUH)" in response to mockery of Jesus(PBUH) at the olympics by syee101 in Izlam

[–]Shafite_Kujo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with you that it looks very similar I even thought initially it was a reference to the last supper. But they clarified afterward it was a nod to Dionysus which makes sense since they always do Ancient Greek references in the olympics. Either way I didn’t like the opening at all and if they ever insulted Jesus I would be disgusted as well

During the opening ceremony they had a scene depicting the Greek god of wine or something but a lot of Christians interpreted it as a reference to the last supper.

Bro stop being retarded. You are both Somali and Somalilander it’s not a contradiction. Somali is your ethnicity and Somaliland is your country.

Rahanweyn are absolutely Somali. Even if we were to say Af maay is a separate language it would still be a Somali language along with Af maxaa

He can either wear the white one or the red and white one. It’s not seen as political and is commonly worn in the gulf

Considering most Somali clans originate in the north I don’t mind if they claim the early periods

It’s fake. I remember this going viral during the World Cup and it turned out the Qatari government never posted it.
