She's a fool sxb...
She's completely ignorant of our culture & Deen. Everyone knows the Somali identity is an ethnic one & our Deen dictates that it can only be passed down through Fathers. Other Muslim Ethnic groups share this paternal lineage rule as well, since we all follow the Holy Quran, for example the Arabs, Malays etc.
Warya, i'm completely aware that in our religion lineage comes from the father.
However, being Somali is more than just lineage as we have minorities that are not ethinic Somalis, yet they are still Somali.
Most nations have people with different lineages. Even in Saudi, there are people with Turkish Origin and Yemeni Origin, yet they are still Classed as Saudi. The same in the UAE.
YOU are an absolute moron as the concept of nationhood is a new one.
