Is Somalia a Salafi country?

[Odious Delirium]

If somalis are salafia why they never obey the ruler ?

There are different types of salafis the boot licking ones are called madkhalis I believe they worship the rulers and thats the only type of salafis the Saudis tolerate over there

Exactly but if you ask the average guy that goes there they will say there shaffi or don't know
And like you said those guy came due to Saudi funding to change the demographics to salafi

I heard most Ashari don’t believe Allah is above his creations. What is that about?

Inshallah we'll create our own jaamaads and counter that stuff. I think as Somalia stabilizes, they'll become less popular.

Centralised alimiya institute connected to the government is what's needed in somalia to stop things like al shabbab and external religious influences from taking hold and radicalsing people for other countries geo political aims that's one of the things I wanna do to help unify somaliweyn inshallah.

The real question is if they are all Muslims why do they kill each other based on clans

Most Sunnis worldwide are Ashari, I'd be careful with saying that. In fact, you could be one yourself.

For the most part, Shaffis and Malikis as Ashari. Somalis are Shaffi. Nuff said. They don’t know it but they follow it. Average Somali ain’t got a clue what an athari or ashari is though.

What’s the difference between ashsri and athari? It’s mainly aqeedah right ?

It's common sense Allah isn't confined to a location he doesn't have a jism we don't give human dimensions to Allah he isnt confined to a specific spot and we don't anthropomorphise him.
I don't really partake in aqidah discussions and from what I know both maturidi and ashari are basically the same with semantic differences and like 80% of sunnis are one of the two. You probably are yourself unknowingly.

Athari is the salafis aqidah

It's ashari, maturidi and athari. They are the main 3 aqidah schools of thoughts

One thing I do know Somalis ain’t ashari no way
There is more sufis then ashari

You can be sufi ashari. None of these things are mutually exclusive.

I mean I do believe Allah is above his creation both in literally and figuratively. I just wanted to know why you believe he is everywhere.

But I have never heard of Athari/Ashari before only on the internet so I don’t know much about them either.

Honestly they are both sunni so I don’t even think they have that much differences like you said.

Can you give me the rundown on each? Also what’s yours?

It's not that I believe Allah is everywhere my stance is and most people that Allah is how he described himself and capable of anything aslong as it befits his majesty.
the why what and how we don't know only Allah knows and there is no point deleving into it because we can't comprehend it.

When you say he is literally above what does that mean? We aren't literal with anything that is anthropomorphic in nature when it comes to Allah because then we would be humanising Allah for example there is a hadeeth that says if you read it literally in Arabic that the hand of Allah is with the jammah now some choose to translate that as the support to make it figurative while others say it is literally and give Allah the human like quality of having a hand while we take the middle ground and basically say for most things that it is what it is in acordance to how Allah sees it to be which we don't know but we don't anthropomorphise or just write it off with our own explanation and make it figurative.

Going back to Allah being above us literally that is giving him a specific location and dimension to be in when Allah is outside of all that and it humanise him because you have to have a jism to exist in a specific space and that is limiting and humanising especially when Allah says in the quran that he is with us where ever we are.

I have made it as consise as I could but there is a lot of detail and explanation and books on the small differences and I don't like going into aqidah I prefer fiqh

No idea there all different and have beef with each other. There constantly arguing with each other and Im not really in any salafi circles or involved in there affairs

 

[Burqad]

Somalis are athari. Acudubillah Ashari kulaha, even the biggest tabglihi would spit on them. They’re halfway to ibadis.

Somalis in the Salafi mosques of Bristol, UK do not represent Somalis worldwide. We are Asharis. PERIOD.

 

[Yaraye]

all Somalis are athari. The sufis like Qadariyas are Athari. Saliyihas are Athari. Everyone in Somalia or Djibouti or whatever is athari.
