Bro that's right

[@kamildiriye6163]

This guy should go to Somalia and say, "We are going to change the way we teach our children the Quran." Instead, he went to people who don't understand most of what he means and just cheer because he is insulting his own people in front of others. He should speak directly to the Somali people. To me, this guy is completely confused and thinks that by insulting his people and telling fabricated stories to others, he will be loved and admired. However, people see him as misguided and lost. Many are probably wondering why he doesn’t go to his own people and work on changing the teaching methods there. I know that beating children to memorize the Quran is not the right way to teach, but in most African countries, children are beaten while learning. Go to Kenya, for example, and you’ll see how kids are beaten in schools.

[@XidigStudio]

Well said 🙌

[@digitalworld1haarin905]

the only thing this guy learn is he learned English. but inside him is empty. he needs to be seen by the westren people idiologists by the way they like. he is looking acceptance of the other people by just insulting his country, his people and their culture further more he exceeds that level and he insults the islamic religion in other pordcasts and interviews.

[@Isaac-m7b8b]

While I respect that you are sharing your story, I feel it is disgraceful that you are making up such great lies about Mogadishu and Islamic courts era, especially since I lived there at the same time you’re discussing. Freedoms existed then, and everyone could do what they wanted without fear of arrest or harassment. I sincerely encourage you to be truthful and come clean about the lies you’ve fabricated in order to gain fame and attract an audience. I am currently in the U.S.
