  • we want shairah in our country not the filithy democracy this guy is trying to implement over allah law may allah give victory to the mujahideen of somaliya and protect it from the disbelivers and hypocrites.

  • @BrotherYounis Terrorist-loving Prick!!

  • @BrotherYounis Sorry but the Khawarij called Shabaab are not in any way going to bring the law of Allah. They will soon be crushed and Somalia will return as a country Insha Allah.

    Al Shabaab are evil, I have seen what these shabaab do to their own people, and all I can say is that they will get what they deserve in this life and the hereafter, destruction upon destruction Insha Allah.

  • alqaida somalia majoogto hadana wa joogtaa hadalka hada uu dhaho iyo kan uu markaan laha keee runah

  • Somalis question why their country is not legitimate?

    A. First sign the representative at the UN is always a foreigner a non-Somali

    B. Every Somali when taking office takes his oath at Addis Abeba

    C. No Rules, No Police No Air Force, No Stability

    D. National Blue flag standing for Somalia is burned by different factions in Somalia denouncing the blue flag instead putting up their own creations

    E. All so called leaders are on CIA Payrolls speak Arabic with no history of Governmental work.

  • kan waa muratd ka ugu weeyn soomaaliya shariif murtad waa ka daranyahay murtad bare iyo murtad c.laahi yuusuf lacnatulaahi calayhi

  • kan waa muratd ka ugu weeyn soomaaliya shariif murtad waa ka daranyahay murtad bare iyo murtad c.laahi yuusuf lacnatulaahi calayhi

  • SHIEKH SHARIF IS NOW A BOOT LICKER OF ENEMIES OF SOMALIA

  • What happened to the man who once spoke like this? Money is definitely a big factor, though some may argue that him being made the president was the game changer..... Any one who has a functioning brain should know this so called "Somali government" is illegitimate and won't work no matter what the west may try next.

  • Sheek Sharif said yesterday ; no International forces needed in Somalia & there is no International Terrorist in Somalia, but what is he saying today ; Welcome to Internat'nal forces including Ethiopia & Al Qaeda is in Somalia. pimp and Traitor, who seeks to come in to power Abusing Religion of Islam. He Brought suicide missions in Somalia & paying the price right now. He's # 1 terrorist with Aweys, , and rest of Moran NOW they killing each other. Good Job Mr. President fck u & go 2 hell

  • Ya Alah,,,I have never seen a liar SheK, Now he is weyane's puppet.

  • At the end of the day, you are also a puppet of the United States!

  • @OnlyTheTruth

    Yeah that's true, nice try though. Even UK is now the puppet of USA. You know that?

  • sh sharif is a good man but there always men dying for the kursi, such as al shabab and when they get it watch there will be other oppositions coming again!

  • Pres. Siad Barre was a regime dictator and his gov't was based on Secular gov't (w/o religion). It's like the Turkish gov't.

    Democracy gov't is better than Secular one.

    Majority of Somalis are just ignorant people who don't know the meaning of peace. They have the same language, religion, land, clan, tradition etc but still fight without no reason.

    So, you shouldn't blame the religion but blame those who didn't get the essence of it.

    Peace!

  • Comment removed

  • Thanks, tybash!

    Yeah, Somalis have minor ones but that's not considered a big one like ethnics. So, Somalia have the same ethnic group (people who identify with each other).

    Peace!

  • How come none of the 100% popular don't get the essence of Islam? It is easier for me to understand that Islam is the cause of the problem.

  • @OnlyTheTruth Islam was never the problem but the outside world are.remember that no country in Africa

    produce or make weapons.did you ask yourself who provided them with weaoins ???

    WHY WE DON'T LEAVE AFRICA FOR THE AFRICANS ???

  • @massimo38 You are very smart! if only there were more people like you.

  • I am speechless about this guy. In Minneapolis he said "Mosques drug our children" and now he said stop forcing women to wear Hijabs. My question is what will be his next attack. Please stop calling this guy a sheikh he is Shaydan.

  • Comment removed

  • @tybash i am sorry to say this but u r a fool, when islam was sent down was it sent down for our homes only or as a way of life, how do we know this, if it was meant for our homes only why did allah say and whoever does not rule by what allah has revealed such are the kaafiroon (disbelievers), if you are muslim you need to read the quraan if you are not muslim your a fool, if you are muslim you can fall into hypocrisy for which you can end up in the lowest pit of hellfire so be very careful

  • Comment removed

  • @tybash so we are not recognised as somali or arab or british or by any country but we are recognised as muslims the reason we are humiliated is because of people like you, you love the kuffar so much you wish to follow them may allah raise you with whom you love ameen

  • @tybash

    Oh is that how you define the religion of Islam?

    I hope you should learn Islam better before you talk nonsense.

    Islam is more important than being Somali or any other nationality.

    Islam is in political (Sharia Law).

    Are you a Christian or some other believers?

    Peace!

  • Comment removed

  • @tybash

    "Islam in Politics is always a disaster."

    That's your opinion, right?

    My opinion is, Islam without Politics is a disaster.

    Oh, you still haven't comprehended the meaning of politics. It's made of laws and regulations which are decided by people. So, sharia Law is a law which was pointed by God (if you believe existing deity). This is why Sharia Law is against all the abusive acts done against women, pouncing topless on TVs. They are degraded directly and indirectly.

  • @naasiib

    Yeah, i totally agree with you brother/sister.

    I was there when the president Sharif was addressing his nonsesical words against the mosques in Minneapolis. But plz you shouldn't be calling him "Shaydan" or negative words. Almighty Allah will judge him in the day of jugdement inshaAllah whether he's good or bad and he will harvest his deeds.

    Peace!

  • My God when will my Somalian people learn that you people are behind the whole world. Grow up and leave the Qabiil staff all, How do you get to call this guy Monkey becaue he is a different tribe. I am personally not the same tribe as him but i 100% is behind him that he is trying to change the country for the bettter. All you idiots talk about is tribe this and tribe that. Just remember tribal issues is why Somalia is behind the whole world.

  • let me tell u my somali friends. i am sick of this war in somalia. i am sick of these so called "president" wanna-bes.

    ever since i was young.. i feel great sensation of tingling regret

    and hate for us fighting each other for stupid reasons ALL of the time.. but insha allah this will change... there will come a day when, if allah truly wills it, i have studied the quran, learned the deen very well, and physically and mentally ready. change SHALL come in the most none violent way u can imagine.

  • evil is the right word for this man. he change his believer so quick than woman change her makeover...devil

    money change devil people like him.

  • if u cant beat them join them !

  • Sharif Ahmed has changed in a very short time. He used to fight against warlords and their main supporter Ethiopia. But for reasons that are unclear the man has now invited Ethiopia to come to Somalia supporthis weak government! He is sitting among the warlords! He's always there to speak negatively agianst his brothers who are still fighting against warlordsw and Ethiopia! He really made a u-turn which led him to such a state that he canceled out all he said when he ws a leader of UIC.

  • i hope the al shabab will come back and kill idiots like this so called president, it's becouse of people like him that somalia is in war, all he wants is power. somalia had peace when al shabab was controllin it so there was peace but this president and his kuffur friends didn't like that and started a new chaos. fuckker

  • not true he is real moslim you are lien man

  • Funny... if you wait long enough, people will surprise you .... someone should send this video to Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmed. I wonder what he'll make of it, talking about the Ethiopians and the US.

  • shariif is a somalian and he is the most trustworthy to lead somalia,when it comes somalis interest somalians has to choose who they want to make afriend and shariif made the right choice inorder somalia to be progressive nation he knows who the arabians are,they just want the distruction and total disaster of our country,the west are our friends they help somalian people from day one untill now somalia knows who is friend and who is foe.

  • what the fuck are you talkin about, it think you are not an somalian. fucker, you think we are crazy, get the fuck out of here you faker . you are not a somalian, i think your an american or an european . fuckerssss

  • KUFFAR IS THE TRUE GOD

  • inshallah Somalia will be safe again.

  • this guys is right ! and i am glad that he is the president of somalia now, al shabab is the only ones stopping him! al shabab should be inprisoned and suffer the sharia law!

  • this guys is the worst person in somalia

  • I am sorry Shariif, Siyad Bare wasn't ousted because " Ethiopians supported forces opposed to the government," but he was overthrown simply because he was a cruel dictator and rejected to hand the power peaceful. After 22 years Siyad Bare killing his follow citizen and looting their money, clan based public movements kicked him out. And that is the true history!

  • I second that

  • Not really Ethiopia did give weapons and money to rebel faction that were against the Siyad Bare regime, for example clan factions that were headed by Ali mahdi and General Mohamed Farrah Aidid were help by Ethiopia to in fact oust the government, but you are right by stating it was coming due to his way of rule.

  • I diss agree with u Ducaale? Siyad bare was ousted by somali enemeis which was established in italy.!!!

  • come people this guys i will be the other president they don't give fuck about somalia. he only cares about QABILL.

  • he is not a qabiil president,he is wadaad!

  • Everything he said was right......this men dont care about QABIIL which is why i think he is the right men....Lets support him and lets love and respect each other...

  • masha allah

  • Let's not talk abt individuals and how they can bring stability to somalia, let's just hope there will be a day to remember insha'Allah.

  • i will be with you from tha start. to the end SOMALIA!

  • what a hypocrite power monger...to my knowledge he is now the president of the non existent so called Somalia and his first mission was to go to addis ababa of ethiopia.

  • Manshalla he is a very smart man....and i pray that Allah is on his side Inshallah.

  • This is a clear message to Melez Zenawi of Ethiopia's EPRDF. Killing, Raping destroying property of the Ogadeni Civilians will landing you to ICC. The Ethiopian leader Melez Zenawi and head of the Army must be brought to International Criminal Court for their crime against humanity in the Ogaden and State of Somalia.

  • i have no right speaking on somalia politics but for the nation to see peace

    why not give this president a chance

    Sheik Sherif ....... i dont care much for the men but for the women and children i hope for peace

  • woooooooow, love my somalian 4live

  • they dont want the world to see a man and a system like this...

    this is proper Islam...

  • the change has came to somalia finnaly ..i mean from here on we will be guide be good muslim people that know what is right and what is wrong...i am happy that sheikh sharif became our president.

  • So is Sheikh Sharif Ahmed was a Leader of Al-shabaab??? and now is a president?

  • Madaxweynaha Sheikh Shariif iyo he's PM along can not bring Somali together The Somali people need to come as one and build their Failed State Somali. of course, Sheikh can be a good leader, but he needs help from the people in Somali and Diaspora...

    God bless Unity... Somalioz always supports LOVE, unity and PEACE.

    maanta maanta waa maalin waaynee

  • Sheikh sharif hada ada madaxweeyne ahe maxeey Ethopianka ugu soo laabteen Somalia? sida maqlay Bakol laga shegayay ineey ku soo laabteen. dadbadan oo ku tageersana sida aniga waan kala noqondoona hadeey siyasadada sidaan ku sii socoto......

  • INSHA ALLAH he will lead Somalia to something good insha ALLAH. If he has short coming as a human we must forgive him and give him a chance insha ALLAH. ALLAH KNOWS THE BEST.

  • Ilike this guy iwas he speaks good arabic and he knows what he was talking about

  • speaking from previous experiene, let's pray that he survives visionless hawiye warlods,if he could make it there he could make it any where.and offcourse he's 2 earn the respect of the west or else @####@%$

  • This guy is with Alqaida and there is no way he is going to be my president.

  • lol isn't he the President now

  • lol he is not my president. To me he is just another warlord and the only difference from others is that he is wearing a fake Islamist badge.

  • you have no right saying that someone is not a Muslim and i don't care about who he was i only care about what he's gonna do from on and he seems to give a lot of hope to Somalis

    maybe we shouldn't look it in a negative way

    and inshallah good things will to our Somalia..

  • too bad!

  • SHARIIFKA sawirkisi hore garweyn bu laha kan hadana garkii wuu iska jaray lol, waxana la yaab leh qof KITAABKA ALLE ku dharanaya isla markaasna leh waxan dacad u noqonaya kitaabka dimuquradiyada iyo xeer hoosadka.SHARIIFKA sidan u arko aduunyadi ayuu racay ILAHEYNA ha hanuuniyo

  • Somali will never succed if there is tribe in it ...

  • By you saying that Somalia will never succeed if there is tribes in the country would basically infer that tribe is the fundamental cause of the problem of that country. Well think again. How many countries are there with tribes yet there is success. Please read and understand the history of the countries and its civil disturbance to understand the problem.

  • I Agree with you ...what's destroying Somalia isn't Qabil..it's the lack of education and ignorant Supports for Fake Leaders...May Allah Help Us.

  • thanks DhurwaaFam, you do have a strong point by commenting that, most of the problems we have in our dear motherland is predominantly due to selfish, greedy and power hungry leadership who half the time have no skill to lead thus causing the misfortunes we face all the time. If only they have the heart to look deep on the face of that hungry dying child, or hopeless mother and father.Hey but most of them care more about " me and mine rather than all". God help us all.

  • I think this dude is on a CIA payroll, definitely he is bought.

  • @ThePestControl YES HIS FAKE SALEING THE SOMALIAN SEA ARE TO KENYA FUCKEERR HIS NOT SAFE NO WHERE IN THE WORLD

  • hell ya thats was up hawiiye all day fuck dem mj niggaz......... holla back son my president is hawiiye, my honda is black, and ill be god damned if ethiopia comes back

  • your presidents hawiye, alshabab who is fighting your president is hawiye( he was against ethiopia, now he is with them. basicly all the hawiye except alshabab were against yusuf. viva darood, if isaaqs can live and make a government and daroods why cant hawiye thats what i dont get. viva darood

  • This man is the best opportunity for somalia to gain stability and begin to rebuild. He is a devout muslim and an intelligent manThis is what somalia needs. God bless

  • Obama of Somalia

  • obama of somalia?

    Obama is a puppet .

    Dont compare our beloved sharif sheikh ahmed to obama!

  • Compare your beloved Interviews now and 8 months later..and see the difference...

  • Bi'idnillah, success will follow his selection for presidency. Better days with peace and stability will come for Somalia. He is an intelligent and God fearing man, I sincerely hope all Somalis will give him unanimous support to bring about the change we so direly need.

  • Sallam Mr President, first of all Congratulation with the Victory of being president of the Somali nation and the chosen leader of the Somali people. We haven listen to you and have found you very brave and consistent. Howeverknow is tme to Walk the Walk and make peace among the Muaqwameda insde the country (specialle al shabab as they have fought heroric their nation). Secondly you need to make a national army and thirldy you need to choose a small and effective goverment and faith in ALLAH

  • Sharifs first concern should be to lure al-shaytaan to give up fighting! Inshallah if succesful should consider a national unity police officers and use the money to strengthen the government. This way success will come. He should then bring sharia in Somalia i.e. the moderate version he practices and not al-shaytaan. Somaliland and Puntland issue should be well thought of. Good Luck Mr Sharif!!!

  • Sheikh Sharif is the only man that has a good chance of bringing peace to Somalia considering his background. He has the support of most Somalis, Arabs and the West. His only problem is Al-shabab and they are in the minority. They should negotiate with him or else be slaughtered! Somaliland dont want Somaliweyn but if he appoints a darod prime minister and unite the south with Puntland. Somaliland has a little chance or he could appoint a isaaq prime minister and still play the game!

  • my last comments concerning qabil and all that other crap was stupid. let's move forward and hope that the warlords are defeated by the new government. we will hope so.

  • for all the somalis lets support our president.. so we can have country again... somalia hanolaato

  • I never support sheikh sheriff but I support him now! I don't support him because his clan, which I am NOT but because of his philosophy! This man stands for change, a change all Somalians need. Please let's give him a chance before we criticize! The well bred contradict other people. The wise contradict themselves. God bless Somali!!!

  • lol at the talk about clans. animals, grow up.

  • Fuck yea. This is our president now. Woot!

  • He acts, speak and lecture like a real president.

    I haven't seen a Somali running for president

    speaking like this man.. Bravo Shiekh.

    I wasn't his supporter nor this tribe, but

    i can honestly tell, this man is intelligent.

  • every somali person loves sh shariff i am from north of somalia and i love to see one somalia and sh sharif to be a president of somalia we need fresh face like obama and sh sharif is like obama young and savier

  • Guess what brother omar. Your dream. Our dream. Somalias dream is comming true!

  • sheikh sharif is good person who is really think what is good for the somali people.

    and he is educated person young stay alive to build postcolonical somalia

  • very well spoken mashaAllah, i couldnt have put it better myself. sheikh sharif is an outstanding man with exellent merits and bravery. if only he had appeared ten years ago our land would have been peaceful and thriving.

    inshaAllah one day victory WILL come to our people and justice WILL BE FELT.

    america and etheopia CAN BOTH GO TO HELL

  • Comment removed

  • so what if he's bantu? he has more dignity and honor then you.

    one can only imagine that ur some sort of a racist to say such a thing, but then again what can be expected by people who cling unto primitive tribalism?

  • this guy is just another idiot. he doesn't even understand what he is talking about...just look at this fool talk.

  • he makes more sense in speach which is more then i can say for you.

  • he's an idiot. are you from mogadishu?

  • Don't call him an idiot. He is the future for Somalia and an intelligent, educated man.

    He is passionate about changing the country and ending this meaningless war. He want's the benefit for ALL Somalis without the bias of qabilism.

    Also note that this video isn't recent-watch his more recent vidoes.

  • you're naive. everything in somalia is all about qabil/clans...

  • I think the Somali people in general just want peace and tranquility and are hungry for a better Somalia. And anyone who is educated and close to Allah, and will listen to the voice of the Somali people is beneficiant for for all of us. I just think that you are paranoid and have a problem with trust.

  • you're retarded. did you hear about the fighting in somalia today and yesterday? the hawiyes and the alshabab along with another islamic group have begun fighting in the galguduud region of somalia. why do u think they are fighting? fucking idiot.

  • If there's a government non of this would be happening. War will stop and criminals will be locked up and justice will exist. Islam is the way, and this man is the one that want's to demolish meaningless fights like that.

    PEACE is what he wants speaking for the majority of Somalis.

  • there is no real government in somalia because of the darods in JUBALAND and the hawiyes in central and south somalia. somaliland people have clearly said they do not want to be part of somalia and the only way they can get their independence is if they create problems between the darods in jubaland and the hawiyes in south somalia. Sheikh Sharif is not a good person and he is only trying to fool everyone by talking about islam when he loves clans and his own clan the hawiyes.

  • I like how you remix your words on public when you are a different person on private. Wow, you really are a nasty peice of work. Also I will not carry on arguing with you since you are a fool- and yeah, I really don't want to be at your level thanks. You really are full of qabiil hate and you hate shiekh shariif only because he happens to be "Hawiye." I mean talk about irrationality and stereotypical views.

  • "remix" that's because you're strange bitch that can't understand anything anyone says after many ways in using their words in different ways. He is hawiye and we know what your people have done. All of the clans in somalia are not much better but what the fuck have your people done? Your people are devils and don't know anything about how to control a country.

  • I think the majority of Somali people got the picture that Qabiil has no meaning now or conclusion, never has and never will since the purpose of it is being abused. So we can all come to something- qabiil hate is too meaningless. Let's just call it a day and forget about the whole thing.

  • And when I say that don't be thinking I'm just saying that, I actually mean it and I've had relatives die because of the qabiil hatred. Therefore if I can say that having gone through the effects of qabiil, I think anyone can too.

    And lastly, give this man a chance. For starters, start listening to what he says and read about him.

  • soomaaliya xalkeeda waa Al-Shabaab, laakiin tuugo hoteelada seexda sida shariifkan iyo awqeys daahir oo isaguna ah tuug kale oo hoteel jiifa, labaduba waxba lagama weydiinayo arrimaha soomaaliya. xalkeena wuxuu ku jiraa mujaahidiinta Al-Shabaab ee itoobiyaanka bakhtigooda dhulka ku jiiday ee duurka kaneecadu ku cunto, laakiin aweys iyo shariifka = MAYA

  • i do not like him but he is the best president for somali

  • sheekh shariif is a good man and i support him all the way but he made lots of mistakes for his 6months rule in somalia and i hope he understood those mistakes and learnt lots of things from his mistakes remember we only learn from our mistakes... Peace&Love

  • SUbhan'allah this is so great thank you for posting it.......trust me i know what he is talking about i lived in somali from early to late 90s and this is the first time there was law and order......but the Ethiopians are scared that somalia will finally be strong a again.

  • i think he is to soft

  • sheikh sharif ahmed is the definition of a true muslim

    a upright smart and respectable man thats willing to giv everything he hav 2 help the people of somalia

    sheikh sharif is allahs blessing 2 somalia now its jus up 2 the ppl of somalia 2 follow and support him

    he dont wanna take money or steal from the somali ppl he wanna clean up somalia and bring greatness bakk

    long live somalia and the icu and sheikh sharif allah hu akbar allah hu akbar allah hu akbar

  • The americans now realize their mistake in supporting the TFG (WHO ARE A BUNCH OF WARLORDS) and also THE EVIL Ethiopian regime. The TFG along with the ethiopians should be tried for CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY FOR CAUSING AFRICA'S WORST HUMANITARIAN CRISIS EVEN WORST THAN DARFUR.

    The americans are now regreting helping the warlord and the ethiopians. The are now trying to re-open talks with moderates like sheik shariff sheik ahmed. Glory belongs to the people of somalia and they want Sheik shariff.

  • The Ethiopians and the traitor federal goverment are thoose who is trying to kidnap Somalia. But your plan will failed. Listning well, we will fight you as long it takes.

  • they wanna deny us sincere leaders like s.sharif.InsaAllah he will be reinstated as the amir of the somalia and inshaAllah the ummah as awhole if Allah wills.

  • i don about this but this guy is better than other abgaals

  • Sharif should know that many many million Somalis is behind him!

  • yes he does and it made me litaraly cry cuz as child i always prayed that one day somalia will find peace and listening to him.....my whispers were said out loud..

  • We Love Sharif our leader.

  • kkkkkkkkkkkkk

  • Sheikh Sharif could salvage the nation should he freed himself from Indha-Cade and other warmongers of Alshabab group

  • Anyone who wants to use brain rather than explosives is more than welcome. Most Somalis are sick and tired of brain washed idiots who have nothing to offer, but death and destruction, and I'm very glad to hear someone like you coming forward and finally joining the ranks of Somalis who haven't lost their sanity.

  • Tigrigna - what do you know about somalia?.

    You're a tigre - a small ethnic that desires

    to create fallacious monarchy.

    Give Melez a month, he will be excuted by the americans once they misuse him, watch out for democrates.

  • people from the south of Somalia are pretty mixed with bantu people from surrounding countries. But not to see things from old race system - he is just mixed, not worse than semitic speaking people from Ethiopia/Eritrea and not better, equal. I am fan of Somaliland free republic, they are democratic enough to live freely in their country, what I heard...and they have good success! that one time will be Somalia functional state of proud people.

    daniel, gumhuriya almaniya ash-sharqiya :)

  • who cares if their mixed with so-called "bantu" speaking people...Stop trying to divide people you friggin TWAT!...BTW Afro-Asiatic languages originate in Ethiopia

  • hey try to read my writing one more time and you will find that I wrote against race system - and speaker of somali can be everybody-even somebody from greenland, language dividing is not racial. Afro-Asiatic languages MAYBE they are from Ethiopia, that is not sure, habibi. Try to study. Their origin is widespread. Daniel

  • I did study you brainless TWAT, why do you think I have enough Bravado to state that the so-called Afro-Asiatic languages originated in Africa...In Ethiopia is where you find the most diversity of these languages in close proximity of each other leading to the conclusion that, Ethiopia is the origin of the Afro-Asiatic languages and the home of the PROTO Afro-Asiatic language...Why are you in denial?

  • habibi,I know about omotic, kushitic and ethiosemitic (etc) languages in ethiopia. but write simply that it does mean that Eth. is urheimat of afro-asiatic languages is denying of history. it does mean that afr-asi lang. are in ethiopia for pretty long time. their origin is propably in are of west sudan/red sea coast/south arabia. bye D.

  • bT,

    Hmm...well either Indo-European languages originated in Europe or India?

    Whadda ya think?

    : )

  • ya habibi, you know maybe better than me that steppe land on north from Black Sea and maybe part of central asia is urheimat of Indogermanic language family...and please stop with linguistic discussion. somali are not of indogermanic origin...and I am not your teacher I have enough work-not writing to some shit about languages. bye

  • Brainless TWAT(bT),

    Who said anything about Somali being of indogermanic origin? Anyway, since your heart is filled with doubt, just do some HONEST UN-BIASED(You do understand what that means?) research on the origin "(cough) Ethiopia"* of the Afro-Asiatic languages and may your little soul be set free...Have a nice day Squirt

    : )

  • of course i know what is unbiased. my little soul has enough work with arabic-amharic studies, while you are just writing shits, ya habibi, I learn facts. may your big soul is freed from this discussion, bye

  • the so called "islamic courts" are agents who deceived somalis using ISLAM as a tool to squander their loyalty while implementing MENELIK's Circular letter (written 1890) as a blueprint for today's aggression from Ethiopia. Somalis should neither work with these cliques of thieves whether disgusing as ISLAMISTS or as GOVENRMENT OFFICIALS

  • So sad to see an African country Ethiopia is colonizing its weak neigbour somalia in the 21 century. Free Somalia Now.

  • Am sorry but this looser does not look like he is a Somali...he look like a Bantu

  • no way that u are somali cuz if u are u would c many somali look like this man. and by the I'm from sanaag not from the south and i saw somali ppl from all tribes and regions.

  • Your a loser for saying something IDOTIC like what you just typed...Are you kidding me? Is he supposed to look Arab? Or White?...Guess what...You dont look American You TWAT!

  • Its realy interesting how the US is encouraging the Ethiopian to invade Somalia and then turn around and offer assistance to the Islamic Union.The only interest of the US is the total distruction of East Africa and its people. This man is amazing.

  • The current Ethiopian government is the number 1 enemy of the HORN. Being the devils advocate. Why! for few lousy dollars huh! Meles Zenawi needs to repay the damage he has done in Somalia.

  • long life Sheik shariff ilaah haku daysto once will be Somali Presedent insha allah ......... we will support you and you will win at least insha allah

  • masha alah thats true the islamic courts did bring peace and they will be back insha alaaaaaah

  • terrorist

  • i belive dat islamic courts will come back to power in somalia. and will attack ethiopia n free all da muslim people dat suffer under meles zenawi..n finally convert all of the ethiopians -non muslims to islam even if it means usin force...inshallah...somaliland will be free..

  • They may have had "GOOD INTENTIONS" but they were blind and GREEDY for they failed to see the need for cooperation with the government.THUS NOT GOOD AFTERALL.

  • cooperation wit da government = surrenderin 2 ethiopia and as a true somali and islam we dont surrender 2 stinky people esp kufru's of ethiopia...somali will be under the rule of da kutub..

  • To govern a nation the self now extends to the whole nation and you have to know the same as a nation and thus exersise extreme CAUTION for your failure will result in the worst.You cannot lead a nation by gambling but by wisedom ,rightiosness and dertermination.Such incompitance is same as evil agression itself. IN SHORT THEY HAD TO BE ABLE TO SEE THE PROBABILITY OF THIS HAPPENING BEFORE THEY ACTED.

  • How would anyone know who should lead?is it the physically strong but mentally incompetent?or maybe its the other way around? i for sure know that the islamic courts were not ripe to rule anybody and i personally blame them for the occupation that is now going on, why? in order to govern oneself you need to know yourself ie your strenghy and even more importantly your weaknesses.

  • I have to thank ALJAZEERA not specificly for this viseo but for seeing that this is a medium which should be taken full advantage of .I think you should even allow people to download your video clips should it be possible.Due the nuture of mordern life on demand news is the only way forward i for one deeply appreciate this opportunity its all about choise now not control.PEACE TO ALL.

  • Allahuakbar...big up to my somali mujahid brothers

  • Inshahallah the islamic union courts will countinue to succeed. Sheikh Sharif Ahmed is very intelligent, speaks about the sharia law, and also is just. How can the middle eastern people not support somalia, only somalians supporting somalia. Is this Islam??? This is why the opressors are close to the troats of many countires that are " Islamic". though they forget the definition of a muslim. Soon they will also pay a price for sitting very comfortably on their golden toilets, and their luxuries.

  • God dam west..backing Ethopia...Why are the muslims sleeping...saudia puppets...and all them puppets

  • Respect for Hawyie Lions!! The rest are sell outs to the Xabashi.

  • yeah man..hawiye and ogadens, marexaan are da real somali and muslims. da rest r habasha

  • The companion of Prophet Muhammad SAWS... Bilal alHabashi, may Allah be pleased with him, was promised Paradise within his lifetime. Which Somalian was promised paradise by Muhammad SAWS?

  • silly question:

    first and foremost: habashi is title given to the slaves. so please call bilal "Hazrat Bilal" or "Bilal Ibn Rabah" may Allah be pleased with him. secondly there is no evidence proving that "Hazrat Bilal" was "habashi" in blood nor that he was a slave before he got sold to Umayyah ibn Khalaf.

    in addition modern day Somalia use to be part of Abyssinia, and we the free nomads meaning "Somalis" better know as the free kings still live (Abyssinia!).

  • Assalaamu Alaykum,

    Habashiحبشي coming from Arabic means 'someone from Habasha حبشة'. And Habasha in Latin is Abyssinia, a region at that time, ruled by a Negus or نخاشي .Bilal is known as Bilal alHabashi just as Salman is known as Salman alFarisi or Suhayb, Suhayb arRumi. Why do I mention Bilal being a Habashi, because Im sick of tribalistic racist Somalis always bashing his race, which many of are indeed Muslims.

  • wa aleykum asalaam:

    Somalis aren't racist and you can ask, the Muslim tribes in east Africa. and you will never see somali bashing "bilal" nor his race. and we Muslim east African all dislike the mad Christian tribes like (tigreys!). and we Muslims have no evidence proving that "bilal" belonging to one Abyssinians tribe.

  • bilal belongs to all Abyssinians including the nomads. and i have to say, people of the old (Abyssinia!) all are tribalistic people and uneducated people. so educate them instead of calling them "racist" and future generations will be less tribalistic people.
