STOP GOING TO AROOS without bringing an envelope containing no less than $200 you dam vultures. That’s what other cultures do

[Jaydaan]

Somalis have high divorce rate because they get married after 2 weeks of talking

I will literally never understand how they do that

Rushing into marriage and popping out kids 2 weeks later is just about the lowest IQ thing you can do

Best people to ask that is your parents

I know that it's blasphemous to say this on a Somali forum, but respect to the Habash

We don’t have beef with Eritrean xabeshis, they support galbeed being free

I know that you don't have any issues with Eritreans, but I grouped the Habash together because I assume that this a cultural practice that they (Habash Ethiopians-Eritreans) all share.

Somalis have a thing called qaaran in which the habaro from the same qabil/neighborhood or friendship group raise money for their friends whose child is about to marry. That is a tradition that is clearly dying out.

So yes, we do help each other out.

Preposterous!

I know that thing very well. The child who’s getting married’s mom’s friends collect a $100 from one another. If they generous they collect $200. Add that up and I assure you it doesn’t go above $2500 max. I’m being very generous here.

Therefore, this is not what we’re talking about.

You know dam well what’m talking about.

In other great traditions each family that’s coming must bring that envelope.

In our tradition of lately…when the couple give birth..relatives (mainly the grandmother’s friends ) would come over to the house to bombard the family with diapers and diapers and diapers and diapers.
They need to learn to give them money.

Nope, it adds to like $10,000. You’d be surprised as these women know a lot of women. That is how much the last kid my mums friend son walked away with. It was a help for him for sure.

They get it from:

Tribe
friends

It does not go down to the clan donation.
Are you mistaken for “Mag”.

I’m talking about women from the same sub clan all raising money for each other. Everyone of them gives like £50-100. Some Somalis are more tight knit than others. Don’t be jealous

Well my mom did give money and my cousin still got separated after 6 months
