    What's the point in memorizing it if you don't understand it?

    Reminds me of this (note that the voice-over says the kid doesn't understand the meaning of what he's reciting):

     

     

     

    The case of the boy above might be unique, of course, but I really don't think this is healthy endeavour in general.

    , no I don't live in Iran, but some people were celebrating Eid today, so no surprise on mine being Friday, Eid Mubarak to you too if you celebrate Eid and were fasting Ramadan, I am not implying you were not fasting, but most Solers here do believe you have somethi against Islam, so until you clear your position on Islam, we will have these doubts about you even if you pray 7 times a day(added 2 there since you are a Budha)

    Haha! I like your sense of humour. To be honest, I don't think most Solers think that. But I honestly have no idea how some people got the impression that I've something against Islam. I've nothing against it nor, in fact, any other faith for that matter. And of course, I'll be celebrating Eid tomorrow, singing 'waa maalin ciidoo, cirkeeniyo dhulkeenaba, laga wada ciyaaree/lagu caana maalee.' :]

    EDIT: looks like I mixed the names of two users in my post earlier! Oops! It's hard to keep track of all these posts/posters.

    I'm not from Xamar as well; I'm from the region that's now known as Somaliland. But I'm VERY happy about this situation!

    All terrorist cells will be eliminated from our soil, they are evil roots in East Africa and the the rest of the world. Thanks to our strong military and police. Above that, Amisom and somali army deserves the biggest appreciation and congratulations. Keep up and you are the best. No one can influence and spoil our destiny.

    Couldn't agree more!

    U forget that Somaliland is poor unrecognized country, which 50% of its own ppl lives under poverty line. And u forget that sl it self had same problems with drought early this year, but thanks to Allah and well prepared government and its people, their early warning system works and because they didn't waiting so-call international community they are better off now.

    That's really impressive, but I was just being pedantic about the title!

    The tenacity & resilience of Mogadishu surpassed those of Stalingrad in WW2.No city in modern history has endured so much destruction in continous fighting, upheaval for more than 20yrs; and there you see life goes on!!! testament to human spirit & the will to live.

    Mogadishu will be remembered as a symbol of freedom, hope by somalis & mankind in general.I'm sure there will be a lot movies commemorating the defeat of the dark forces & a triumphant city & its heroes.

    LONG LIVE MOGADISHU & SOMALI PEOPLE.

    I agree with Aaliyah, this post is beautiful! I can't believe I missed it earlier!

    I guess I'll leave this thread in peace now that we have resorted to crying that I'm being insincere, have agenda against Islam, and some strange mumble about apes that made very little sense. Suffice to say this was a pointless thread that got what it deserved.

    then just that provides the answer for a wicked scapegoat .

    no wonder, hadana it will be my handwriting,

    It's not an excuse to dismiss you. You couldn't make sense of a simple and clear three-sentence paragraph of mine and responded with utter gibberish. You earned this ridicule, so learn to live with it. Don't make yourself feel better because the same has been said of someone else. Take my advice and do something about it for your sake. In the meantime, I will ignore your laughable gibberish.

    armaa ladhihii lahaa, this is also judgemental. waayo, androcentric means dominated by males or masculine interests. calling other's views by this term9androcentric) is judgemental.

    how do you blame others on what you do?

     

    i concur with what most said, apart from this person

    I pity your grasp of the English language. You should probably work on that before you come to boards like this and try to pass judgments on people's remarks based on the meaning of a word you obviously had to search in futility. Even in the other thread whose link was provided few posts back, the whole disagreement between you and certain someone else was because of what seemed to be your low reading comprehension skills. I don't want to come off as big-headed, but till you fix that I don't think any discussion with you on these matters would be a productive one, and I'll just keep ignoring your mindless gibberish like before.

    ^I think Garnaqsi is against the empasis put on clothes , whilst other moral issues are being neglected e.g teaching manners/responsibilities/humility etc - is that right Garnaqsi?

    Yes, I think it gets the priority of things completely wrong. The fact that these complaints come from an androcentric moral viewpoint makes it worse. You don't see these complaints made about the culture of sagging, which is probably more wide-spread in males than what was termed in this thread is in females, and which under the same judgement should be of similar, if not more, concern.

    to misquote doesn't make your points strong, at most it reveals the degree of insincerity in your argument . as even aaliyyah reminded you, the point was
    tight fitting jeans
    as opposed to
    wearing jeans
    .

    Let me get this straight then: what exactly is your opinion on Somali ladies who wear 'normal' jeans?

    Looks like then you're suggesting exactly what I was hoping you weren't! Ah, well...

    i think sharmarke was talking abt grown lady wearing tight as* jeans!..

    I don't think I suggested otherwise.

    Aaliyyah, there is a difference between teaching a child about religion and making/forcing a child to become religious. I hope you're not suggesting the latter, which, from personal observation, Somalis happen to do a lot for some strange reason. Besides, wearing jeans is not something that children necessarily pick up from television; rather, it's something that they pick from places far more closer to home, like their neighbours and their peers in school, if not their parents or elder siblings. I personally don't think anyone obsessed with trivialities like the morality of wearing jeans is going to make a good parent anyway. No offence to anyone, of course.

    I wonder whether Hadrawi had that planet in mind when he wrote the following lines in his poem 'Durdur':

     

    Deegaantu meeshay ku taal doqoni waa mooge

    Dhul dabayshu toban sii dhaxdoo durugsan weeyaane

    Daanshood waxa lagu tagaa boqol diraacoode.

    It seems so apt for this planet (even though diamonds have such a high status only because of their rarity).

    Indeed, all this obsession with the trivialities of life is really unbecoming. It's said that Siad Barre was once asked what his favourite song was and he replied "dadkaaga dhinac ka raac, yaanad dhumine dhinac ka raac..." I can't help but think the man had a point.
