EU TRIP



It doesn’t happen often but I’m so glad I went on trip to France, Belgium and The Netherlands by far it was the greatest trip ever taken by me. Took ferry from Dover to Dunkerque in France and from there travelled by our own car. Apart from getting strange looks and tiredness everything else was excellent. Below are some pictures I took and if I eternally get this chance for a second time I in no doubt wouldn’t hesitate to take it.

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain

Somali Famine


My people are dying, straggling financially and emotionally and are starving to death and this is the worst in 60 years. They walk miles just to get to the Kenya boarder where they can set up tenants, get registered for food and health care. Children and babies are hit the hardest and few make it alive to the Dadaab refugee camp in Kenya. It's getting worse and the numbers of people arriving are rising even though it's not enough. It’s very painful to see children who are malnourished and the tragic that parents have witnessed.They are exhausted, lonely and desperate since they have to deal with all these tensions by themselves with no male protection or support. This is way more than drought these include the need for protection, shelter and healthcare. They are getting help but there are high risks and potential consequences.
Restrictions
  • Al-shabaab
  • Security Conditions
  • Funding
  • Access denied in some regions
 Insha'allah they will make it.

Ramadan Mubarak

When the month of ramadan starts, the gates of the heaven are opened and the gates of hell are closed and the devils are chained.
May Allah's blessings be with you and i hope Allah answers all your prayers and dua's.

Somali Wedding (aroos)



Add caption

I went to a friend's/neighbour wedding and it was fabulous. Somali Weddings are great, fun and in terms of food, hall it’s even exceptional however there are many things that I hate which take place such as lack of respect for the bride, family, gossips, uncontrollable attitudes, uninvited people, and many more.  

Hope you enjoy those pictures

Somalia & Somalis


 

Somalia the land of poverty, death and injustice moreover this country has not had a proper government for more than a decade. It's torn apart by war, lies of warlord, humiliation however, Somalia was not always this bad before but rather a well built well, established country with money, education, health care system and equipments. Hopes were high; people respected, loved one another and truly lived with each other in harmony and peace. For a while, the Somalis seemed to get a long fairly well and supported each other in regards to Clan and Religion issues. Thousands died, millions fled to a safer place without alternative options and others miraculously survived.
