Somali makes post claiming he is Arab on forum

You know what the irony is? Jabarti was the nisba for people who originated from Northern-Western Somalia, Muslim geographers used to call it Jabarta and this was centuries before the father of Darood(Abdurahman) , Ismail Ibrahim Al-Jabarti

He is not Yemeni. Nisba Al-Jabarti meant that he was Somali from Somalia. Because Jabarta is what they called Northern region. We have Manuscripts from Yemen Rasulid Dynasty that covers it

You are right Somalis often took pride in where they were from and carried a nisba to denote their homeland.

Anyways those manuscripts are interesting, in so far as they reveal that despite Somalis taking on the Aqili Quraishi lineage claim they didn't necessarily see themselves as Arabs and Arabs saw us al-ajam (non-arab) regardless.

This can actually be explained by a hadith i shared:
 
They would at least know how to speak somali, it is a oromo troll. Dont see why you are hell bent on blaming them when the majority of them are patriotic
I know they are patriotic. The trolls online are both, but mostly oromo. I’ve seen a few on tiktok who are hellbent on discrediting somali history and identity, they seem to know alot about banadiri culture and hadramout

They seem to carry alot of grievances bcs of the war (who doesnt) but also I think this recent behaviour is a reaction to those ethnic somali trolls that terrorize them online
