The day Somalia became cursed (Sheikh Mohamed Mataan) :


Essentiall this sheik is saying that our initial parliament after Italian rule voted against implementing Islamic law in favor of a democratic constitution in a 120-2 vote. Even those well-versed in the deen didn’t even want to rule by it, except for said two members.

If what the sheik is saying is true, no wonder jahiliya, injustice, and hypocrisy regarding the deen is so prevalent today. Our government from the get go wasn’t interested in following the deen properly. So many of our current issues could’ve been solved now with proper sharia implementation, especially in key areas (dealing with qabilyaad, ensuring education and marital rights for girls, closer vetting of so-called Islamic teachers and what they are teaching/preaching, environmental care, etc.) but no.

Makes me wonder if some of these parliament folks knew they wouldn’t get away with their bs under sharia, so they voted against it. Or perhaps they truly believed democracy would be better? Idk.

So, anyone know if what the sheik is saying is valid?

Instead of fighting an Armed Struggle, the SYL were bribed with ministries and cars and that’s when a lot of problems with current Somali politics kicked in.
 
Whether its true or not I personally think this cursed narrative that many people is harmful and justifies a lot while hinders consequence for perpetrators if it can all boil down to the entire Somali Peninsula being cursed from an even that happened 50+ years ago.

I agree it’s quite normalized and i hear it often from somalis.

Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “If a man says the people are ruined, he is the most ruined among them.

Al-Nawawi said, “The scholars agree that this disapproval refers only to those who say it in contempt for people, to denigrate them, to claim themselves superior to them, and to accuse them of evil intentions, for he does not know the secrets of Allah in His creation.”
