No sympathy for Somalis getting stopped at airport

[MR.𐒈𐒝𐒑𐒛𐒐𐒘]

I read an article a while back about a group of Somalis getting stopped at the airport because of there Arabic names if those idiots had Somali names like other Africans bearing there African names they wouldn't be stopped at all by airport officials. Would they stop a someone called Ayaanle Abshir or a Hamed El Hajji lol.

For every Somali child given an original Somali name, 1000 more are given the name Abdi Something. We must break this cycle.

First of all its not weird to share names with a sphere of influence you right next to.

Secondly these are honourble as many of them are names of previous phrophets.

Thirdly i encourage somalis to get tradional names i just oppose this weird hatred you have for non-somali origin names.

The problem is Somalis think a particular way, they see Arabic as part of Islam, and they lack the cognitive facilities and can't separate the book and the language.

Bro it’s just a name.

I do agree the names are rather repetitive.

but still a name.

This.

Abdi is the equivalent name for Steve for white men.

Kkkk

@MR.𐒈𐒝𐒑𐒛𐒐𐒘 Arguing against anything that involves Arabic.

You're either oblivious to the irony of three of the four names you listed being of Arabic origin or you're trolling. In any case, this is silly.

You are telling the truth. You are much more likely to get stopped in the airport for further searching if you have an arabic first and last name.

So we should stop naming ourselves servants of Allah or naming ourselves after the prophets and sahaba...............all because we might get stopped at an airport?

Also "Abshir" is an Arabic name. It comes from the root b-sh-r, which means glad tidings. Related names include Bashir and....

Their pronunciation of 'Ayaanle' will sound like it is a German name.

Actually? I don’t speak German but is it similar?

Nope Abshir is of Somali origin but Abshir in Arabic has a different meaning but unrelated fool.

It’s kind of easy to be profiled if you dress in those black tents Somali women wear. You stand out like a sore thumb.
