Pagan holidays? No thank you. Somalis already celebrate their culture in a variety of festivals and events like Istuunka, Dabshiid, Xuus, Siyaaro, ect all of which are still Islamically influenced.

So the only reason you want this is because the neighbours have their own?

istuunka is done on nawriish and dabshid is just another name for it and it isn‘t an Islamic holiday at all, in fact they probably predate it.

Having a few celebrations would be a good thing to unite people. I'm not a scholar, but it's not haram to have a yearly event if done right. I think that's most people's concern. Something like Halloween would be good. Without the religious connotations, it's a nice event for children to partake in and build community.
