This took place in columbus ohio...
Brothers, Alhamulillaah, we have a new Muslim who also learned Somali language. Since we're the largest Muslim community in Columbus, I've seen Cadaan Muslims who want to really learn Somali language and integrate well within the Somali community. They found certain qualities within Somali community than any other Muslim community. For instance, the Somali mothers would welcome any new Muslim kids, cook for them, they can stay with the kids and be part of the family. Somalis are also very generous, so they help out these new Muslims when they are in greater need, especially when their families kick them out due to them becoming Muslims. I did remember how fellow Somali women conducted a fundraising for an AA Muslim family who suffered a death in the family where the wife died. The AA Muslim father could not take care of the children and work at the same time since his income was not good enough to hire a babysitter. Somali sisters led a fundraising campaign and collected enough funds for him to get by for awhile until his situation changed. This is why we have these new Muslims want to learn Islam because they found us to be very welcoming.
Who is Ahmed Cade?
There are Somali men and families struggling just as much if not worse, how come we don't hear about these women fundraising and trying to help them out? Why is it always a problem dealt only by "tolka"? I don't understand Somalis.

From my experience Somalis in general seem to always go over the top for non Somalis. If only we treated each other the same we would eliminate many terrible things from our culture.
I can imagine all the xalimos lined up to be 2,3, 4th wife.
Exactly! Go to any Somali restaurant and see the service ajnabis get versus the service we get.From my experience Somalis in general seem to always go over the top for non Somalis. If only we treated each other the same we would eliminate many terrible things from our culture.
