@Nabadwanag During the civil war, many Somalis fled to other African countries, where they were welcomed with open arms. The same cannot be said for many Arab countries.
@africangenes I don't get why some North Africans pretend they are superior to the rest of Africa. You were colonized, subjected to apartheid, and acts of terror were committed against your people because they were seen as lesser humans. Even now, many of you live in hell under dictatorships
@Safawidme @globalupdatz Before Islam, Somalis practiced Waaqism, a faith centered on the one supreme god Waaq. Similar to early Pharaonic models, their nomadic lifestyle led them to deify natural forces like rain and pasture. This legacy survives today in the word Barwaaqo and places names like Ceelwaaq
This man is being mocked by enemies of Islam through his image, and the far-right uses his angry expression as a tool to distort the image of Islam.
This man is Shakil Ahmad Bhat.
He has a sad story.
When he was 12 years old, the Indian police stormed their home and threw his sister out of a window, which caused a spinal injury. She later died four years later as a result.
At that time, Shakil Ahmad became angry and entered into the political movement (peaceful) for the independence of Kashmir, his occupied homeland.
This angry photo of him was taken when he participated in protests against cartoons insulting the Prophet ﷺ in 2007, and then this image turned into an icon used to distort the image of Muslims, even though he was in a peaceful protest.
He was arrested more than 300 times unjustly.
He was released from prison in 2020.
His brother died due to a brain hemorrhage.
His father became bedridden because of the repeated abuses and raids by Indian soldiers on Ahmed’s home.
This is the story behind the angry image that spread around the world and was used to distort the image of Islam.
Behind it is an innocent, oppressed, and sad face that suffered the hardships of injustice and tyranny.
This is the media of evil since the dawn of history:
It turns the victim into a villain and the oppressor into a victim.
And Allah is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs.
Our consolation is that this is a fleeting world, and the Hereafter is the abode of reward and punishment.
@Alghurabaaaaaa Your religion is no different. If that name was changed from Jesus to Allah and the waves didn't wash it away, you’d be shouting 'Allahu Akbar, this is the true God!' and so on
This is the money in the Somalia 🇸🇴 state stitched by tailors because the central bank doesn’t print new currency.
It’s the same notes since Siad Barre fell.
The bank doesn’t function, the state can’t even print money yet they talk about sovereignty.
@HumansNoContext I remember once I was in a mall parking lot, just vibing, eating fresh donuts I had just bought. Out of nowhere, a car reversed into me, and I fell. I just got up, grabbed my donuts, and walked off like nothing happened. The guy driving the car was so confused, lol
@MaalinIrab Bro, every ethnicity has its own distinct features. Instead of denying them, it’s better to accept yourself and embrace what makes you unique. Cuqdad ha ka qaadin your big forehead kaaga
An all-powerful, all-knowing God reveals ultimate knowledge to humanity. And that “knowledge”? If a woman refuses to sleep with her husband, angels will curse her till dawn. For a supposed universal god, Allah seems very human and very local. Muhammad, is that you?
Why are women always the ones being punished in Islam? If a woman HAS to have sex with her husband because of angering Allah and angels, that is NOT consent.
