Heated discussion regarding Somali citizenship.

[Zkr]

I have been forced to take the western ID without it I can’t go anywhere. Nigga don’t play dumb in order to take citizenship your father need to be Somali, and the mother can’t grant you citizenship cause it’s against Islamic law or xeer system.

Who is forcing you to go anywhere? Stay in your Western country then, it is completely possible to remain on Permanent Resident status and not take their citizenship.

Somalia is facing tons of problems that are more worthy of a serious and fruitful discussion. Somali citizenship should be the least of our concerns. No Somali woman or even man is looking to attain Somali citizenship. It's worthless and has no value. Gatekeeping, the shittest passport and citizenship in the world, is hilarious.

We need to gatekeep it now so when we become a member of OPEC (since we have oil) & start adding money to our Somali Sovereign Wealth Fund, no ajaanib can claim to have rights to our country.

We are shitty now, so why would people want to claim us when we get back on our feet?

A Somali is one that has a Somali father irrespective of where he is born.

It's the mother who instills values, morals, and culture in her children. It's the mother who nourishes and cares for her child. It is a mother who is with her child when they experience all the first moments in life. While it's true that the child follows the paternal lineage of the father, they tend to assimilate and be close to the culture of their mother.

Yes, but in our country lineage of the father is what grants you our nationality. It must remain that way. It protects us.

This is why full Somalis with both Somali mothers & father will have a better understanding of their language culture & identity.

You are allowed only to have the citizenship if your father is Somali according to Islamic teachings. The half mixed kids need to claim their aboo side and leave authentic somali people alone.

Couldn’t have said it better
