So here is the question.

Does an elder brother has a responsibility to take care of adult brothers and sistsers?

For example, I have a 20 year old half brother who things its my responsibility to take care of him by either take him abroad to the western countries or start a business for him or even pay for his marriage. I know I have an obligation to help my parent in the Shariica but I did not know the obligation goes down to adult brothers and sisters as well. He does not make it seem like he is asking for sadaqa or help. Its like, hey, you either give me money to do business or take me abroad. I just can't sit around. When the sisters call, they will always say kaalay maaad wiilkaan dhoofisid or Ganacsi ufurtid maxaa kaaqaldan? I am like, why do they think that is even my problem.

do not unable him, somalis happen to unable bad beheavers.

you can help him with education but more than that it's your own discretion. that intitelement personality what made us the way we are. in the west they think west owe them welfare, in arab countries they think Arabs owe them special treatment.

dont fall for it and make him example for others.

You are right. I told him I will help him if he is going to school. But for him to just chill out in the streets doing nothing? I told him why don't you become a waiter, or walk in retail store or even sell stuff in the streets. He thinks he is too good for that.

I used to chop chicken meat when I came to America.

Somalida waxa dib u dhigey weeyan qof weyn oo qof kale xoolahiisa ku tashanaya!!!
Waxa ka daran weliba dadka kale ayaa odhanaya muxuu
Walaalkii waxaas iyo waxaas ugu soo diri waayey waa dad la hadh ah.
Waxay ila tahay in aan walaalka wax waajib ahi kaa saarnayn hadii aanu xanuunsanahaynin.
