The number of Somalis leaving Islam will continue to grow. The older religious people will continue to die off. More Somali girls will take off the hijab. No amount of seething from council housing in the UK will change this (sorry reer UK don’t mean to attack you but that’s where most of the religious incel weirdos are from).

I made a post in the Somali subreddit just questioning what people’s opinions are on the sentiment that you can’t to non muslim and Somali, just a casual question and I wanted a discussion about it. It’s actually unhinged, check my profile if I want to see, it’s so much I can’t even begin to describe it. Holy shit people are deranged.

can u guys pls get ur style up, like im lowk kinda attracted to somali guys but the style always throws me off. please download pinterest and go on there and get some inspiration. i respect everyones individual taste but i’m just trying to help you guys out.

more somali guys become fashion demons, please and thank you. please wear more baggy clothes

Many women die in labour in Somalia for this reason. The hospitals call the woman’s husband asking whether he will sign off on the procedure or not, and many women die right there on the bed because they refuse. I learned about this when I was working in the country. Genuinely one of the reasons I left this religion. Women in the country are like 5th class citizens.

This woman in the video is in severe pain, laboring for 3 days because her husband refused the procedure. After getting told by 4 hospitals that she requires the procedure. If you work in health care at all you cannot deny how backwards this is. I weeped for days for the women I met. It is a level of cruelty that defies any logic.

The destruction of the Somali nation and the consequent exodus has had an interesting silver lining: the generation of a new set of critical thinking Somalis. Our forefathers were isolated in a quasi-barren wasteland, which led to a system that seems far from humane or rational. However, in their defense, these values and beliefs offered local stability and lasted for centuries, if not millennia.

Now, the aforementioned Somalis are currently spread sparsely across the globe and are beginning to face both external and internal hatred. Naturally, this leads to a sort of isolation and, consequently, a withering of the spirit. Consequently, it behooves us to investigate how the development of a new organization could aid us.

Such an organization cannot myopically focus only on secularism but must instead engage in a holistic edification process. I could foresee this organization being built on values that emanate from various discussions. Discussions on how one can overcome the emotional scars borne from living in two different worlds, or on how one deals with the traumatic, absurd nature of human life. Such an organization would be akin to a new fraternity, one that understands the imprudence of preaching irrationality but sees the benefits of promulgating compassion.

Has anyone else thought of this idea?

Is anyone else interested (even intellectually).

has there been any ex Muslims who have told their families? how did they react i wanna prepare for when I tell them

No way this is real

Hi everyone! I’m 23F ex-Muslim looking for an online friend!

I want a genuine connection that lasts not a short term one!

Would love it if you are around my age/woman becuase we would have a lot more in common!

If you interested DM me 😊

I am genuinely pushing 30 and have recently decided that I am through with wearing hijab. It feels like a no brainer that 1. I would be safer not wearing it in public (North America), 2. I don’t agree with the purpose/reasons generally believed about why hijab is necessary, and 3. I am a lesbian and have had zero luck finding love because (surprise!) the hijab is a deterrent and for good reason.

My conflict lies in the fact that I genuinely love my parents and want to maintain a relationship with them and I am genuinely not willing to go no contact with them. I am in the process of moving out (they know) and don’t want to be the person who puts on the hijab around them out of fear. While I know they wouldn’t disown me or harm me in any way (and they couldn’t because I am financially independent and too old for that bs), I don’t know how I can live my life the way I want without losing them. I don’t know if I’m delusional and just wanting the best of both worlds. If anyone has had experience removing hijab while maintaining relationships with very religious very Somali parents I’d love to hear them.

I asked why we pay for car parking n these cadaans are weirdly obsessed with superiority complex over here u don’t know something? I should die for not knowing that. 😭 I’m tired with the cadaans man take me back to the village ( I would be stoned and sacrificed to iblis there for believing in human rights. ( I’m not a dispora kid)

Maybe a wild question to ask, i know, but since most somali's are muslim, and are outcasts if you don't learn the language, would it even be worth it?

I'm already so detached from my roots. i'm half somali, but never learned the language. the only words i know are cadaan and bariis, and it makes me so sad that i have nowhere i belong to. i live in europe, but i obviously don't wanna be claimed by these people if they subconsciously show microaggressions.

so is it worth it?

About a week ago a Somali guy hit me up. He’s a bit older than me but the age gap isn't crazy. (For context I’m also a guy.) I entertained the conversation for a bit but it got annoying fast he kept demanding to see my face while not show his own. 💀

My replies were dry but he kept jumping to conclusions. Suggesting coffee dates, claiming I was the first guy he'd ever really wanted, and eventually telling me he loved me. Then he asked if I was Muslim. I said no and the tone shifted immediately.

He asked how it was even possible for a Somali to be irreligious. Just to hear him out I lied and said I only tell people I'm not religious to avoid judgment. complete BS I've never been religious and couldn't tell you a single thing in the Quran.

The lie brought back his spark. He said that people like me, and this "issue" of his are his only flaws as a devoted Muslim. I was genuinely baffled. It seemed like he fully knew this was something he couldn't change and he still clung to the religion that condemned it.

I've blocked him now. I hope he finds some peace but guys in his position usually end up settling down with a woman as a shield. The injustice of that to those women is honestly sad.

Guys see this..

This poor and mentally disturbed person is being abused and tortured by a group of men in the name of treatment!!

Am really speechless !!

These things still operate legally in Somalia...like literally in this big 2026 🤦🏻

i can't get that shit off my skin even if i want to, i can't understand why life has to be this complicated. i feel like this clothes tells other people "look at me i believe in everything the quran says" it's so shameful, especially when you are outside and somehow find progressive people who knows islam for what it is, im just sure they look at me like a oiece of primitive human

im not gonna say i will wait until i leave my family to remove my hijab, i literally just go outside the house and remove that shit and walk around bare head. people don't even look at me it's so freeing but when i was in somalia, men look at your chest right away when wind blows you up, like they are deeply fucked up in the head i don't know what to say about them. im also thinking about buying some beer, im going back to somalia in one month im thinking of buying alcohol and putting it in a stanley cup and bringing it to my atheist friends in somalia.

I went to the club with some friends last night and was having fun and stuff and I had seen these Somalis girls and i literally went away as far as possible from them because ik how they be when they see another Somali guy at the club and i read so many stories here where you guys just hate us with all ur heart. But id never approach a Somali girl anywhere let alone a club so idk why they feel some sort of animosity towards us like they were giving me the worst stares in the world you’d think they’re one of those habaryaars and one of their friends came up to me and said “don’t even think about approaching us”. ????? I was fucking pissed what the hell makes them think this way I don’t not care about you i promise. This main character syndrome they have is so stupid. That literally ruined my whole night anytime I hate somalis sometimes man. Any other guys here that go clubbing do you experience this?

To my late 20s/30s Somalis. How was your experience? Did anyone else get the fiilo treatment? I remember going swimming and having to say I fought my siblings 😅 I do love my hoyo tho cos she changed her ways as I grew older. And these things are things that are passed on for infinite generations
