Scorpion, I knew you were gutsy but daamn you break the record with that one!

Jamaal this is realy interesting.. I think Libaax summed up in the genes, I mean. Look at your example how even some educated folks dont change I hardly think switch from nomadism to farmers would bring about the change we need. I remember a certain conversation I had with a Somali prof at my college and I recall him saying "adeer your soft spoken you must have been born in a city" I laughed asked why he say that, he replied "after years and years of living in the city some of the best in the world (he is syracuse/washington educated)I'm yet to get rid of this 'laudness' "(yeh he shouts when hes talking) To wich he which he contributed as a factor that associates with "Nomadism" and having grown-up in wide open graze-lands where people shout to be heard. Something I've never realy concidered! Interesting how the thing is already in our genes the prof's children shout when talking just like their Daddy lol I guess what I'm trying to say JamaL is, this might already be too late, it( the laudness, the arrogance, the temper) has shaped and redefined our people and is the-not-so-admirable trade of our culture. That's not to say that we cant strive for improvement.

Last week the Sunday Times newspaper quoted Iman who pledged to embark on a mission of truth to discover whether the eviction of the Bushmen – which has already started – is indeed to pave way for the diamond mining. Only then, she said, could she decide whether to severe her links with De Beers, the world’s biggest diamond mining company. Is all good, Lakkad. She hasnt signed anything yet I just hope she comes to decision before it is too late you know. Another thing I'm impressed walahi, I had no idea Iman was such a big shot. Thanks for the article saxib! Luvya

SYL2 eh? I'm liking the sound of it already. Hey if it happened before I'm sure it could again. But, I have to say this Somalis need major interference to unite before it could happen. I mean with SYL times we had bigger force Colonizim(Guumaysi) to ward off and fighting over trible issues when our freedam was at stake was no choice. I dont mean to sound negative but again we need a catalyst with that sort of magnitute to push our ppl to unite. BTW, my Grandpa was a member of SYL. I think alot of older generation would love to see a similiar movement take place.

There are two nuns. One of them is known as Sister Mathematical (SM) and the other one is known as Sister Logical (SL). It is getting dark and they are still far away from the convent. SM: Have you noticed that a man has been following us for the past thirty-eight and a half minutes? I wonder what he wants. SL: It's logical. He wants to rape us. SM: Oh, no! At this rate he will reach us in 15 minutes at the most. What can we do? SL: The only logical thing to do of course is to walk faster. SM: It's not working SL: Of course it's not working. The man did the only logical thing. He started to walk faster too. SM: So, what shall we do? At this rate he will reach us in one minute. SL: The only logical thing we can do is split. You go that way and I'll go this way. He cannot follow us both. So the man decided to follow Sister Logical. Sister Mathematical arrives at the convent and is worried what has happened to Sister Logical. Then Sister Logical arrives. SM: Sister Logical! Thank God you are here! Tell me what happened! SL: The only logical thing happened. The man couldn't follow us both, so he followed me. SM: Yes, yes! But what happened then? SL: The only logical thing happened. I started to run as fast as I could and he started to run as fast as he could. SM: And? SL: The only logical thing happened. He reached me. SM: What did you do? SL: The only logical thing to do. I lifted my dress up. SM: Oh, Sister! What did the man do? SL: The only logical thing to do. He pulled down his pants. SM: Oh, no! What happened then? SL: Isn't it logical, Sister? A nun with her dress up can run faster than a man with his pants down........

Salaama Aleykum, Kowneyn Brotha, I'm still researching on the whole thing about sufism. There below is little something I found from Online Islamic dictionary. I'm inclined to do some more research but my bad suspisions of any sects/group or any particalur labelings, according to this article, is well founded. Your take in this, if you may O'brother of Islam. Sufi A Muslim who has accepted misguidance by dividing into a sect of people who worship graves and saints and claim Divine incarnation. Tasawwuf (mystism) has come to be known as "Sufism" in the west. SUFI, (The Persian form of the plural being Sufiyan). A man of the people called Sufiyah who profess the mystic principle of Tasawwuf. There is considerable discussion as to the origin of this word. It is said to be derived (1) from the Arabic Suf , "wool," on account of the woollen dress worn by Eastern ascetics; (2) or from the Arabic Safu, "purity," with reference to the effort to attain the metaphysical purity (which is scarcely probable); (3) or from the Greek, meaning "wisdom"; (4) or, according to the Ghiyasu'l-Lughat, it is derived from the Su fah, the name of the tribe of Arabs who in the "time of ignorance," separated themselves from the world, and engaged themselves exclusively in the service of the Makkah Temple. From the very days of Muhammad, saaws, there have been always those who, whilst they called themselves Muslims, set aside the literal meaning of the words of Muhammad, saaws, for a supposed mystic or spiritual interpretation, and it is generally admitted by Sufis that one of the great founders of their system, as found in Islam, was the adopted son (sic) and son-in-law of the Prophet, 'Ali ibn Abi Talib. The Sufis themselves admit that their religious system has always existed in the world, prior to the mission of Muhammad, saaws, and the unprejudiced student of their system will observe that Tasawwuf, or Sufism, is but a Muslim adaptation of the Vedanta school of Hindu philosophers (sic), and which also we find in the writings of old academics of Greece, and Sir William Jones thought Plato learned from the sages of the East. The Sufis are divided into innumerable sects, which find expression in the numerous religious orders of Darweshes or Faqirs; but although they differ in name and in some of their customs, as dress, meditations and recitations, they are all agreed in their principal tenets, particularly those which inculcate the absolute necessity of blind submission to a murshid, or inspired guide. It is generally admitted that, quite irrespective of minor sects, the Sufis are divided into those who claim to be only the Ilhamiyah, or inspired of God, and those who assert that they are Ittihadiyah, or unionist with God (sic). There is more, but this article was more acute, some what summarises what the others I've read said about sufism.
