Ok so my travels outside Maakhir included North Somalia East and West. On fridays, salat jumah, I wore ethnic Maakhiri clothing- jalabiya /bisht- the Somalians assumed I was a religious Arab. Truely and it must be history Somalians are the biggest Arab ass kissers but they can't admit it. Outside Maakhir I wore the bisht and everyone would greet me in salaams followed by are you a Arab. Clearly since the whole Al-Shabab crusade I'd reply yes but I am a Maakhiri.

What I've noticed is Somalians listen to outsiders, not to my suprise the Somalians would follow me assuming I was clergy asking me which part of Arabia I was from. And reciting the quran, I found this odd but realized us Arabs have led and tamed Somalians once we landed on the Horn millennias and centuries ago.

not only Arabs, but all other people except somalis, somalis back home would listen to anything a white man would say, they say (war kan ka dhegeysa waa nin cadde isaga garanaye) Kani xune somaliga ha maqlin wa beentiye)

100% true but they prefer Arabs over gaal. I've experienced this first hand and inshallah the Maakhiris return to their Arab roots and exploit the Somalis.
