SomaliNet Forums

I watched this in another format last nite at a friend's house and decided to share it with you I find it on youtube. tried to get the lyrics for the language challenged with no success! I am sharing this clip to show you the fact that Somalia has changed a lot in the past twenty years. Today there are no concert halls, movie theaters, etc because the country is controlled by religious elites.

too naughty...

Even with the TFG?

Shirib, The president is the same guy who announced when his ICU banned listening to music, let alone watching movies. His inner circle are wadado too.

The only good thing that came out of the war is that our women have returned to the path of xishood. Waryaa who are the religious elites which control the country?

LamaG posted this a while back I was shocked, "ii ta tabo" you know

Subhanallah we were jaahileen back then.

actually your wrong. today is more fasahaad and more women get pregnant before marriage even in Somalia compare in 1980s when 95% of school girls were not covering their hair.. those days when i was in middle school 1980s. girls use to wear SURWAAAL and 98% even more of the girls both middle schools and secondry school and universites did not cover their hair, those days girls they were less easy. you could not go near them.. today NIQAAB WEARING somali girls sells her body in to some view shillings or dollars.. young girls somalis in somalia and west get pregnant and have sex before marriage..


Saudi wahaabis who invaded somalia last 20 years made it somalia a country more fasahaaad more munaaafaqnimo, more beenayaal even though their clothes look like saudi clothes so called hijab but today is more fasahaaad and fusuq compare those days in 1970s and 80s before wahaabis whit saudi oil money invaded not only somalia but also all over islamic world...

Mashallah though, it was impossibe back in the days to spot a niqaabi let alone a jilbaabi. Now days everyone is conservatively dressed and I am proud of that.

I have to agree with Yalaxow wallee....

Gabdhihii surwaalka ku dhigan jirey schoolka ee timaha afro ga ah lahaa..Cidi lama hadli kari jirin...There was a boundary, gabadh xun (which) were rare iyo gabdho xishooda...

Hadda waana xijaaban yihiin waana wada "Ha iga biqine ila balan"..ofcourse with exception of few...Believe me ...don't fall for the niqaab...

*Snip*

I think I'd call BS on that one.

You see that in most cities in the UK (Pretty sure it's same in the most western countries), in 10 years back then, there was lots of Muslims, but so few pious Muslims that Masjids wouldn't even fill up on fridays Jummah prayers. Now, even I arrive at Masjid good 30 minutes before the khutbah it's full already. There's lots of people outside queuing. There's lot of new Masjids being built left, right and back, and that's not even enough to cover the growth of pious Muslims.

Before someone else says it's because of population growth, then that's wrong because growth in numbers of people going to masjids outstrips the growth in numbers of Muslims. In that case, it means more and more Muslims are becoming pious.

I dont know about the 1970s and 1980s, but now its not difficult to get some.

It's all relative Warya. We can also say she was a product of Marxist indoctrination by the socialist regime of Siyad barre. The typical somali women in the country side who is free of most influences that occur in the city (socialist or religious waves) does not behave in such a way. The very idea of eating outside the house is alien to our country girls which we can best use to gauge what typical Somali women did or did not do in the past before the modern age.

People have to understand that the hijab (n niqab in Somalia) has just become part of the Somali code. one wears hijab because it is worn by everyone not only for religious purposes. Somalis have not reached the level where both dress codes coexist without labeling. The people are the same the times have changed.

This video is not a representation of either the whole of the people at that time. Generally no woman with honor went around singing ''ii ta tabo'' and I'd assume most of the population was conservative compared to say the capital itself?.

war gabdhuhu ha xumaadaan ama ha fiicnaadaane, tan madaxa u feydan had iyo goorba waxay ka tagtay astaamaha islaamnimada, oo asturkii iyo xishoodka baa meel uga dhacaaya. tani xijaabsan waxay dadka ka qarsoon tahay ishooda oo Ilaah kaliya uun baa ogsoon waxay galabsato. waxaana la yiri waagaa hore xataa gabdhaha indhashareeran waa la raacdeeyn jirey oo dhagaxyaa lagu dakhraynayay, taa na waa ibtilooyinkii iyo jahligii nasoo dhaafay. Ilaah baa mahad leh, oo mugdigaas naga soosaaray
