I know but as Somalis we have double standards. This same girl has a brother that wants to marry a morrocan girl and her parents are okay with it.
@Omnya
I’m not sure how long they’ve known each other but I know that is she’s very determined she wants to marry this guy. I think the best thing she can do is pray istikhara then inform her parents after.
Asalam Aleikum
Salaanta ka dib
It's a sticky situation tbh but the real reason why the parents are ok with their son marrying out is due to lineage, his children will carry his lineage and will be always be considered somali but with their daughter the children will not, as lineage is passed down through the father in islam. Lineage is one of the qualities that is sought after in marriage and in islam this is allowed.
Correct me if i'm wrong but it seems like the sister has been in touch with the revert brother for quite some time and is only deciding to inform her wali now after she vetted him herself,? enough time has gone by for her to develop feelings for this brother which further complicates this issue all together. Even if the sister had acted according to islam and informed her wali about the revert so as to let the wali do his job chances are he still would never accept him solely on his background never mind the issue with having non-muslim in laws etc
Only solution now is to go ahead and inform her wali about the brother and should they decide to reject him then best thing to do is move forward and forget this brother as it's only going to create more drama down the line tbh. I know it'll be hard but it's better than the alternatives out there
I just hope that she doesn't focus on her parent's rejection due to his lineage and say it's "haram/un-islamic" when she has interactions with a non mahram without the consent of her wali to begin with. Had she cared about what islam says then she wouldn't be talking to the revert brother in the first place, so how come rules didn't matter then but do now ?
We're all walking contradictions, best course of action is to focus on our's before we turn to others.
Nobody’s trying to marry nobody without their family’s consent.marry whom ever you want go against your parents wishes, to hell with your community.
but, but, but, tomorrow when things dont turn out as you dreamed, have the courage to stand up straight and live with your head high , dont come around begging like a lost dog in desperate need of shelter.

Walahi I’ve seen it happen walalo.I've honestly never come across this. All the strict Somali families I know have the same rule for both genders when it comes to marrying Somali. I sometimes feel like this is something that wass made up by Xalimos on social media for gender beefs.
Not accusing you of lying sister but just never came across this type of scenario, yet social media makes this seem common.
So your telling me her parents have the Islamic right to deny a potential spouse based on their racist beliefs? that's haram.Moron, the parents have more authority over their child than the local imam. If they don't wish to marry their child to some stranger Ajnabi, it is their right as waalid. Dumb "muh ummah" fucks like you are the reason Somali females are considered cheap and clean. Handing out Somali females to ajnabi at mosques like popcorn at a fucking carnival.![]()

im diving into that pussy like Michael phelps.
But I seriously don't give a flying f*ck. I always considered marrying a non somali. Spoke to my parents about it before they wouldn't care. as long as the girl was Muslim they would be happy.
I really don’t understand where people got this cheap and clean thing from. Like honestly that’s disrespectful. Not every Somali girl that marries a non is selling herself or is cheap.So your telling me her parents have the Islamic right to deny a potential spouse based on their racist beliefs? that's haram.
I don't give a flying f*ck about this cheap and clean shit. A majority of people don't give a shit about this cheap and clean thing either.
Men and women should both be happy with who they want to marry.
You shouldn't be getting denied a spouse for stupid reasons like race.
its not me walalo. But I honestly wouldn’t marry a guy my parents are not happy with. Family is more important. Love comes and goes.Don't let your family stop you from attaining happiness![]()
They only say that cause of mehr. Y'all are charging 10k + menr to somakli men. But what about Anjabi men?I really don’t understand where people got this cheap and clean thing. Like honestly that’s disrespectful. Not every Somali girl that marries a non is selling herself or is cheap.
She said he will pay the amount she asks for. I don’t know how true that is.They only say that cause of mehr. Y'all are charging 10k + menr to somakli men. But what about Anjabi men?
Are they paying the same 10k that the Somali dudes had to pay?
its really fucked up if your denied a spouse cause of race issues. Especially if you had a lot in common with the guy you were interested in.its not me walalo. But I honestly wouldn’t marry a guy my parents are not happy with. Family is more important. Love comes and goes.
tnis sight makes me wonder though if reverts are actually paying reduced and cheap mehr prices.She said he will pay the amount she asks for. I don’t know how true that is.
.He’s American Lebanese Syrian.What's the ethnicity of the guy? I'm just curious
