The Somali community can be so senitive- how did people come up with the conculsion that Ali Dawah is ‘obsessed’ with us when Ali only comments positive things about us or also when he is talking about his Marriage journey? It’s so embarrasing, people just want to attack….The females who were invited to the show did a better job at explaining about our cultures then the two men. What was the point of them coming in?

The blurred guy makes you feel like your watching a Vice documentary about human trafficking 😂😂

The fully blurr is so cringe, just dont come to the podcast......

I wish Ali got 2 elders and get a translator. A Somali uncle and a Somali Auntie. This youngsters don’t know much about the culture but they tried to share what they knew about it.

is the blurred guy under witness protection?? lol 😂 😂 😂 😂

Interesting conversation indeed! I learned so much about Somali Culture 🇸🇴 My father is from DR Congo 🇨🇩and I live in the U.S. 🇺🇸Whereas my mother is from Haiti 🇭🇹 but I was able to trace back her lineage to Sudan 🇸🇩 through African Ancestry. So I am always intrigued by the different cultures and languages within Africa 🌍 Ma Sha Allah ❤

Lol couldn’t you find another Somali  guy that’s willing to show his identity.

it's a shame that these individuals were brought on to represent Somalis, Two of the individuals on the panel do no represent us in the best light on social media (both a male and female, in case you're wondering). They weren't knowledgeable on the basics of Somali culture and often responded in a western/secularist view. The principles that guide a fruitful marriage within the Somali community is based on "Deen and Daqan" - religion and culture, and its a shame the former wasn't mentioned much or if at all by the Somalis.

So many mistakes throughout, please ensure a better panel on the next episodes and perhaps conduct a basic background check on those you invite on; some of the panelists have a history of racism, allowing the Deen to be slandered and disrespected on the platforms etc.

Your coming onto a show and you decide to have your identiry covered wth 😂😂😂

Alhamdullilah as a Somali mum who’s children are born and breed in Europe enrolled them ( intentionally) at 99% non Muslim private schools and taught them Seraa, Hadith and Quran at home ( chose teaching them SEERA TO LOVE our PROPHET/S) I can say Alhamdullilah they choose Islamic wedding ceremonies NO MUSIC NO MIXING OF MEN AND WOMEN. instead their  weddings were celebrated in Somali villages at orphanages.  

My son is getting married soon. I. Allah and among the first conversations he had with our DIL to be is HALAL WEDDING.

I didn’t know Ali dawah Quran teacher was Somali Mashallah. “Somalia the land of Quran”🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴

Masha Allah. Well done. JazakAllahu Khairan.

Please don’t bring people in your show if they don’t want show their identity. It’s disturbing

Ya3ni Ya3ni Ya3ni even Arabs don't say Ya3ni this much, he's so embarrassing and the fact that he thinks he's not Black despite being dark as midnight 😂😂😂.

As a somali this was a cringed episode,the girl with head scarf was only one making sense ...

Lol I'm just a cadaan as i believe it's called, but i felt embarrassed watching this. These guys don't represent the Somalis i know. I can see why some people are annoyed

Why on earth did they bring on this Ya3ni guy. He can barely put a sentence together. There are many educated Somali men in the UK who can better represent us.
