Bakhti Diaspora Somali Journalist Complaining about Prayers in Mogadishu

[Lord Flacko]

For real! 9/10 Somali women I know literally have adhan alarms that scream on their phone. Why not a text message or a vibration from the application? Even my mom is at fault of this! It's funny because when I tell them to lower the volume they claim "igadaaf it's Allah's calling". Doesn't the Islamic religion preach piety and not allowing others to see your good deeds? It's so hypocritical!

Tf are you talking about its literally just a reminder to pray. Do you want your hooyo to not pray on time and pray in the closet so "others won't see her good deed?"

 

[Lord Flacko]

Somalia is not 99.9% Muslim (I'm not a Muslim and I account for 5% of Somalia's population). And even if it were, so what? Canada is 99% non-Muslim and yet no one forces you to believe or conform to some stupid religious practice.

Small-mindedness (e.g. my clan is better than your clan) destroyed. You're only perpetuating that same pathology with this religious conformity agenda.

Non one has still answered the question: what purpose do prayer calls serve? If it is to remind people, why can't it be done in a way that doesn't disturb others? Why must religious folks ostentatiously display their piety?

Lots of questions. Very few answers. Verily, Allah knows best!

Why are you getting fucking triggered over a call to prayer in a Muslim country you don't even live in.

The call to prayer is a call to prayer. Even with your bullshit number of 5% of Somalias population not being Muslim you still have 95% who actually want it. Why the f*ck would they take away something that is dear to them to please a non existing 5% aswell as you?

Even in Norway where over a third of the population is nonChristian they have church bells that ring several times during the day, before church service and other events. Yet nobody not even the Atheists are complaining


Reddit-educated armchair atheistic people are among the worst

I literally stated in the post how they could put it as a vibration or a message so it doesn't go on for a minute disturbing others in public areas. Doesn't your religion teach you to be modest and not draw attention?

Prayer is obligatory, doesn't need to be hidden as it's doing the bare minimum. Additional acts can be hidden such as charity, extra voluntary prayers..etc.

Id say insecurity also applies the new Somali atheists who dedicate 95 percent of their online presence to discussing Islam.

Wow, really? Maybe because 100% of Somali life is revolved around Islam. Except for hating Arabs...

She visited and expected to be accommodated? Who does she think she is?
How about you go find a place where you won't hear it? The mosque was there before you showed up.

Insecurity, atheism, and a raging inferiority complex is a hell of a drug.

Shouldn't this old bleached hippotamus be with her grandchildren teaching them wisdom? Wtf! This is what i hate about western culture everybody is so infantile and childish. What is a lady in her late 50's doing in twitter? No wonder the 15 year old in Somalia is smarter and more clever than the 40 year old in the West. No wonder why qurbojoog are assumed to all be crazy and unhinged. You stupid fools on this thread how can you defend such childishness? If she were my mother i'd be ashamed and disown her for talking about our religion like that.

 

[SomaliWadaniSoldier]

She is fucking dumb
