there is another theory about held by some Mareexaan Sufis.

Naaima, myrrh is incense (uunsi).

Uunsi is made out of sugar and perfume saaxib......Myrhh waa luubaan......misa kan kale oo qada ku darsan jirey.

That is true sxb Very Happy

since myrrh and frankincense (luubaan) are basically the same.

I do not know the reason for the last question.

Ugaas Diini hablaha ayuu la fariisan jiray, how the fock does he know what uunsi is made out of? Gedoondhawa iyo khadiijo Xaaji ayuu hablaha Cali Dheere uunsiga la samayn jiray. Laughing

If you go to Facebook search and search "Marehan", hundreds of Arabs will pop up whose first name is Marehan.

I am tired of every unkown or questionable thing about somali being "arabic", every single clan in somalia now days trace their ancestors to arabia specifically yemen and nabi maxamed (saw), all I am saying is why ee soomaali ugu faantaa arabta and ka faantaa somalinimo?

Anyways some one a while back explained to me the myrrh theory. That's more likely then all other theories.

What did that have to do with Marehan being an Arabic term?
