₦airaland Forum

Oh this made me smile....it really did. I see more negativity towards Somalis on nl than anything else all because of an idiotic troll so it really made smile to see some positivity. Thanks op! I'll add some too if pos

pleep: ^ Why

just saw your post because you didn't quote me. What makes me sad is that I see a lot truth in this thread however its something we can't change or do much about because much of it is due to history which again we can't change however we definitely need to recognise it in order to go forward. Our people need education and not just academic but also our history and how Africa became the way it is today and how we should carry ourselves from here on up.

ogtavia: Pls what's d difference between a visitor and a guest?

I don't know maybe guest is one you have invited and can stay for longer and visitor
Is one that has just popped over possibly unannounced and won't be with you for long.
I don't think that is the difference interms of the English language but hey let's say that it is, lol

wiringdpt: Nice

nice to you too lol

Kajiang02: This got me thinking though. Wish everyone in Somalia would embrace this kinda attitude, guess there won't be fighting anymore, but rather peace in the Land.

It is well.

wish everyone in every country would be more open minded not just in Somalia or Somaliland where I hail from. Would make the world a much better place. Here's to peace between all

Well surely the house help should come from me the wife. Something's the husband shouldn't get involved in, like bringing another woman into my home and around my kids and hubby then I will be the one that makes that decision.
On a side note, iv always thought that it must be difficult to keep a butt like that clean, yknow what I mean. Its like the first thing that comes to my mind when i see someone with huge buttocks, it should be noted that im a bit of a clean freak, so im always thinking about how to keep things clean. Anyone else think like me or am I the only weirdo?

There must be some sort of psychological situation there. I mean for someone to go to such lengths is just ridiculous. Reminds me of the American cat man who died recently by committing suicide. He went to all that trouble to look like a cat and killed himself. Possibly because he didn't like himself and wanted to change so bad he probably feels he will find happiness that way and eventually when it doesn't happen it always ends the same way. Just sad.

logica: You should've ignored that m0ron.

thanks its ok sometimes you gotta kill them with kindness

wiringdpt: Somalia to Nairaland? Interesting, una no get forum?

no we do have a forum and I'm a member there also but I just like to interact with people outside of my country to broaden my horizon. Interaction with people outside of your own community helps you to be more open minded and accepting of others and their ways.

Emmaesty: U have a wonderful culture. If only some Nigerian cultures were like this, we'd have a cleaner country

thanks but it can be a nightmare when you are just chilling in your house maybe planning on a nap and someone knocks on your door and not only do you have to open the door but wait on them too with a smile on your face and they have full right to roam ur house as they wish. Iv had this a couple of times and though it was an uncomfortable beginning I looked back at the visit after with a smile.

nma24: you ain't Nigerian?

no I'm not...

macof: So in the next 200yrs or so your descendants are free to denounce Islam, ur language, ur fashion, ur family name etc with the excuse that "it is old and backward"

If that's what they choose then who are we to stop them.

PAGAN9JA: ok thats your choice. but dont deter others from seeing the Light of Paganism.

iv never done that. Live and let live has been my moto.

PAGAN9JA: Then applying your logic, as you know islam is outdated in todays modern era so why not leave it?

that religion was clearly meant for ancient Arab Bedouin people.

Imagine praying 5 times every day in this age of hectic work and occupation. That was suitable only for desert nomads who had lots of free time at hand.
Even now , many of my muslim friends skip prayers in between as they find it difficult to keep up with it.

It is not always the best to stick to old ways whether that be religion or culture/tradition but rather to assess all that is around you, leave what is not good and often take what is good for you.

If you are stubborn and stick to your old ways then you will keep yourself backwards.

Regardless of whether you think this isn't good for me and it is backwards, I believe it to be good for me and that it makes me a better person. I'm happy with my decision.

macof: Ok this isn't really my point as bad people are everywhere.
But don't you think Somalia would be better of with its original Worship system in the Name of Waaq?
This is afterall the Somali way, the way of ur own ancestors

just because that was the original religion does not mean it is better off for us. People evolve over time and often leave their original ways for a better way. It is not always the best to stick to old ways whether that be religion or culture/tradition but rather to assess all that is around you, leave what is not good and often take what is good for you. If you are stubborn and stick to your old ways then you will keep yourself backwards

PAGAN9JA: Ok everyone should be left to their own device. FIne . SO?
I was just expressing my opinion as to the best recourse for Somalis.

Btw you did not choose islam. You were born a muslim.

And as for belittling , I will only stop when muslims stop speaking against Pagan religions at all their forums,calling Gods as idols,etc., etc.

First you show the same feeling towards others before expecting the same treatment from US.




Well then why are you encouraging the stereotype? Try not to lie in the future.

Correction I was born into a muslim Family however choose as an adult to continue with the religion because I believe it to be the truth.As for treatment you are speaking of, I have not spoken about your beliefs and dont want to as it does not concern me. It does not affect me in any way.
As for the "STEROTYPE" i dont see one. All I see is someone who clearly has deep rooted bitterness and a chip on their shoulder that is so concerned with what others are doing and allows that to affect his own actions. Don't generalise, There is no us and them only you and I. Life is too short for such negativity. Happiness lies in being content with what you are so much so that you dont even notice what others are doing with theirs. I wish you well. I dont think we are getting anywhere with this conversation therefore I bow out with my dignity intact.

PAGAN9JA: Dont Lie. You said :



You are basically implying that I was forcing ppl to accept Somali religion.


What does shariaa law have to do with this? shariaa law is being displayed from your mentality. You want to hush up anyone who speaks about anything unislamic or about apostasy (as in this case where I hoped for Somalis to return to the religion of Waaq).

What is the grudge i have with Somalis and muslims? LEts see,,

First of all there was these Somalis who kept insulting Africans and Nigerians on this forum for almost a year or two.


Then they are fanatic muslims and muslims are destroying my country and the world.
(There was also this 1 Somali preaching islam here on Nigerian forum)

etc..


As to your last question.........it has to do with personal experience.

Ok fair enough. I get ur point on the first part, though I didnt intend to accuse you for the sake of it but was rather trying to make point.
As for the shariah mentality that you speak of, I am not trying to shut anyone up that is speaking against Islam or apostasy but my point is that everyone should be left to their on devices. No one should belittle another's beliefs. I choose Islam for myself and am not forced just like you have chosen your own beliefs.live and let live.
With regards to the other experiences you have had, you should try to treat very case as an individual case. It would be wrong if I judged every nigerian by my experience with you.

macof: No you don't know wat is best for you, this is just a woman.killed for being free by Islam, many unjust acts done in the name of Allah for lies.
The religion of the ancestors is best for anyone not just you or Somalis but the entire Africa.

Islam and christianity are evil

I beg to differ. There are many acts of evil that are carried out senselessly outside of Islam and Christianity also on a daily basis. Don't judge a religion by the followers of a religion judge the religion itself. This woman was not killed by Islam but an individual. We have to judge his actions for what they are, he has not done something that is part of the religion islam therefore no matter how much he says it is for islam , Islam is free from his evil.

PAGAN9JA: You did not just ask me a question. You implied that I was forcing Somali Religion down peoples throats.

You Somalis have a habit of lying all the time.

If you didn't appreciate my comment , then leave this Nigerian Forum. This site is not run by Sharia'a Law . (Except islam section)

ok. Why are so worked up? I didn't say that you were forcing Somali religion down peoples throats because now you're lying if I follow your definition of a lie. I was simply giving you taste of your own medicine which must have been bitter.what does shariah law have to do with any of this? What is this big grudge you seem to have with Somali's and Muslims? What do Somali's lie about all the time?

hazzand16: yea u are wrong cuz d last time i cheked dis is nigeria home made forum for my fellow naija peps so just get d hell outa here

lol someone needs to chill. All this because I expressed an opinion you didnt like.

Araboy: I agree that hijab in middle east is a part of their culture more than an Islamic dressing  code even a  non practicing

muslimah or an ashawo     can still  be wearing hijab 

Shia  consider hijab a sign of chastity and focus too much on the folkloric  side like hijab  and beard  instead of 

more substantial matters I think the lady might have given  a better image of Muslims  if she was dressed in  western

attire

how on earth would a Muslim woman dressed in western clothes be a better representation of Muslims. Explain yourself.

xtervaganza: you call that little money?




Boy, I give up on you

I didn't mean it literally but was pointing out that it is unnecessary to flash whether you have a little or a lot.BTW you are talking to a lady not a boy.

hazzand16: watin cary u come nairaland den, watin cary u come nairaland den,

I was under the impression this forum wasn't just for Nigerian's....am I wrong?

xtervaganza: you call that little money?




Boy, I give up on you

when I said little money I did not mean it literally for some its very important for others to be aware of their wealth so whether they have a little or a lot they make sure to show off. I have seen plenty that live pay check to pay check and use up their dosh to flash because that's more important than to invest and build up their wealth and to benefit those around them and donate to charities etc.

I did not lie about anything, simply asked you a question. Live and let live was my whole point. As a Somali who chooses to believe in Allah I didn't appreciate your comment. I know what is best for me and that is that.

youngmoneypi: Little money my azz..
Flash your big money let's see
. Typical Nigerian. Always trying to hate

There was no hate shown bro, chill out. I just don't understand the concept of flashing money is all., FYI, I ain't Nigerian.

Thats the most ridiculous thing I have seen. Why do people feel the need to flash what little money they have? It is soooo tacky.

PAGAN9JA: abeg how about you STFU?

did i mention forcing anyone here. This is my personal opinion.

Hold on now, I only expressed my opinion also. Seems there is one rule for you and another for the rest.

PAGAN9JA: Because it is their Original Faith and better than the Religion of Allah.

How about you concern yourself with that which concerns you and let people do what they wish with their own lives. You would not appreciate someone trying to force you to worship something you don't want or belittle what you believe so why is it ok for you to do so?

PAGAN9JA: Lets pray that Somalis return to the religion of Waaq.

Why?

Bigsteveg: Was, dats nice..are u based in nigeria.

No I am not. I'm in Europe.

ignis: Boromboro

lol this means cockroach in my language
