Somali history really began after Islam sxb I get what you're talking about though it's fine to be proud of your heritageI inherited my grandfather's beliefs via my dad. His Nick was Geelle, in Arabic "saxibul ibil" and he was proud nomad.
Now, no offense to Arab ethnics, but me and my society are the nobility of native Africans who introduced the camels to the Arabs. We are our own ethnic groupg separate . Our language is older than Arabic saxib. Hebrew, Arabic, and Somali are called afro_asiatic languages and are grouped as having common origin.
When a Somali person's history is older than many ethnic groups on Earth today, it is taking Ls to settle for less.
Greetings to Arabs from an older African native brother, we have common nomadic culture that we introduced to you, but make no mistake of us being Arabs.
I do and I am a sophisticated man

isn't it haram to claim someone elses lineage![]()
I'd say Arab history started after Islam too sxb they were nothing but camel herders before that Islam made them greatSomalis existed before ISLAM just like Arabs existed before Islam. If Arabs existed and herded camels before Islam, And Somalis existed and herded camels before Islam just like Arabs, how does the Somali history start with Islam and not Arab history? Did Arab history start with Islam? What you say is very offensive and an insult to Somalis like me dude. If you are ethnically Arab, that is your issue, not my business but do't lie about me and my lineage. There is difference between Islam and Lineage. Abraham was a Muslim and was No arab. Noah was a Muslim and was no Arab. Moses was Muslim and not an Arab.
Also, Islam reached Somalis through Abyssinia before Arabs completely accepted Islam. Our language existed before Islam, we herded camels and goats before Islam, we traded and had kingdoms before Islam, we defended and expanded our lands before Islam. Our forefathers believed in God in their own way just Like Arabs believed in god in their own way though not correctly. Islam corrected the wrong beliefs but to every nation God sent a prophet before.
Don;t be offensive and speak for all Somalis. Speak for yourself ONLY.

"So here is the issue that needs to be clarified:Many people use the abbreviation “SAW,” “SAWS,” or “PBUH” to fulfill this obligation in their writing. Is this something that fulfills the obligation of sending the salaah and salaam on the Messenger? Let us look now to some of the statements of the scholars regarding this practice. The Permanent Committee of Scholars in Saudi Arabia headed by ‘Abdul-‘Azeez ibn ‘Abdillaah ibn Baaz issued the following verdict when asked about the validity of abbreviating the salaah on the Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam): “The Sunnah is to write the entire phrase “sallallaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam,” since it is a kind of supplication, and supplication is worship, (in one’s writing) just as it is in one’s speech. So to abbreviate it using the letter SAAD or the word SAAD-LAAM-‘AYN-MEEM is not a supplication nor is it worship, whether it occurs in speech or writing. For this reason, this abbreviation was not used by the the first three generations, those that the Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam) testified to their goodness.” [8] “SAAD” and “SAAD-LAAM-‘AYN-MEEM” are often used in some Arabic books. The English equivalents of these abbreviations would be: SAW, SAWS, SAAWS, PBUH, and the likes. Al-Fayrooz-Abaadee said, “It is not appropriate to use symbols or abbreviations to refer to salaah and salaam, as some of the lazy ones do, as well as some ignorant people and even some students of knowledge – they write ‘SAAD-LAAM-‘AYN-MEEM’ instead of writing ‘sallallaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam.'” [9] Ahmad Shaakir said, “It is the absurd tradition of some of the later generations that they abbreviate the writing of ‘sallallaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam.'” [10] Wasee Allaah ‘Abbaas said, “It is not permissible to abbreviate the salaams in general in one’s writing, just as it is not permissible to abbreviate the salaah and salaam on the Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam). It is also not permissible to abbreviate either of these in one’s speech.” [11] And Allaah knows best. May the most perfect and complete salaah and salaam be upon our beloved Messenger, and upon his noble family and companions."He’s right, most of the Arabs now don’t look like how they looked at the time of the prophet so most people assume to be an Arab you have to basically resemble a modern day Arab.

Why? It`s merely an opinion.Other than people getting confused with the abbreviation and what it means when they don't know what it stands for, this seems going to the extremes. People who submit these kinds of questions are the ones who do the most damage in Islam.
yea me too. around the same time. but hes right there is two somali tribes who are originally not somali and trace their lineage to ali ibn talib. which are the sheekhaal and the shariif tribe. for example the shariif(asharaf) tribe live in xamar, sanaag, bosaso, ethiopia, morroco, algeria, saudia arabia and more. my wifes mom is shariif(asharaf) and is somalized arab.Been watching Speakers Corner since 2016 but the shit really blew up in 2018 all kinds of characters turning up and now people from all over the world are watching it.
