Sam it is such an honour to have someone like you live in Somalia. I admire you because I can see the love you have for Allah and his messenger and Islam. Your presence brings blessings to Somalia. May the omnipotent make Somalia a great place for Muslims to live, ameen.
As a Somali refugee born and raised in Kenya, I have always wanted to go back to Somalia but the way my parents resent the place had made me not to do that. Insha'Allah one day I wish to get an opportunity to go and see the ocean.
Insha Allaah that day will come soon. You don't have to believe everything people say about Somalia. Just reclaim your curiosity and come back when you get the opportunity to see it for yourself.
Our parent generation are the once’s that ruined Somalia . They are still holding grudges within each other . It’s up to us new generations somalis that are born in Kenya Sweden USA Canada to come together go back and make somalia great again
@@Dah2291 no our parant only remember bad things in 90th so country is changed many good ways alxamdulilah yes some things is heppen but it's not something targeted one person or ordinary people so I advise for anyone who still think not to go please let see don't believe everything u heard
In Somalia's embrace, a life so grand, A tapestry woven in desert sand. Amidst the sun's fiery, golden kiss, A land of beauty and endless bliss. Where the camels roam, and the nomads stride, In Somalia's heart, we find our pride. A culture rich, a history long, In every note of a nomad's song. Beneath the stars, a night so wide, The whispers of the winds as our guide. A journey through time, ancient and free, Somalia's spirit, for all to see. From the coastline's grace to the mountains tall, In Somalia's beauty, we stand in awe. A land of resilience, strength, and grace, A tapestry of colors, a vibrant place. In Somalia's heart, a story unfolds, Of people, so resilient, their stories untold. With hope and courage, they rise above, In the land they cherish, the land they love. A beautiful life in Somalia's embrace, A testament to the human race. For in this land, where life does thrive, We find the beauty of being alive.
The beauty of Somali life is deeply rooted in its rich culture, history, and the resilience of its people.

This diversity contributes to a rich cultural tapestry that is celebrated and cherished. 2. **Hospitality**: Somalis are known for their warm and generous hospitality. Guests are highly regarded, and it is common for Somalis to go out of their way to make visitors feel welcome. 3. **Nomadic Heritage**: Somalia has a strong nomadic tradition, and many Somalis continue to lead a nomadic or semi-nomadic way of life. The vast and beautiful landscapes of the country are often traversed by nomads, connecting them to the land in a profound way. 4. **Traditional Music and Dance**: Somali music and dance are vibrant expressions of the culture. The traditional music, such as Somali folk and love songs, showcases the country's musical heritage. Traditional dances, like the graceful Dhaanto, are performed on various occasions. 5. **Language and Poetry**: The Somali language is known for its intricate and poetic nature. Somali poetry, particularly oral poetry, is highly esteemed and has a rich history. Poets, known as "Gaarriye" or "Bard," have played a significant role in Somali society. 6. **Cuisine**: Somali cuisine features a blend of flavors influenced by Arabian, Indian, and African culinary traditions. Staple foods like rice, pasta, camel meat, and injera (flatbread) are enjoyed, and traditional dishes like "hilib ari" (grilled goat or lamb) are savored. 7. **Resilience and Community**: Despite the challenges of conflict and instability, Somalis have demonstrated incredible resilience and a strong sense of community. Neighbors and extended family members often provide crucial support in times of need. 8. **Coastline and Natural Beauty**: Somalia boasts a stunning coastline along the Indian Ocean, with pristine beaches and clear waters. The country is also home to diverse ecosystems, including deserts, mountains, and fertile plains. 9. **Historical Sites**: Somalia has a rich historical heritage, with ancient ruins like those in the ancient port city of Zeila and cave paintings in the Las Geel complex, offering glimpses into its past. 10. **Aspirations for Peace**: Despite the challenges of recent history, many Somalis aspire to rebuild their nation and work towards lasting peace and stability. The determination and hope for a brighter future are beautiful aspects of Somali life. While Somalia has faced significant challenges, its people continue to celebrate their culture, uphold their traditions, and work towards a better tomorrow. The beauty of Somali life lies in the resilience, traditions, and the sense of community that persist in the face of adversity.
😢😢😢 oh wow that made me choke a bit all of the above is true but we need love and peace more than anything and love of country its bit depressing at the moment
@@SamOfSomaliaTV it's a wonderful country Alhamudulillah. You should visit again sometime soon. There are lots of new things that have happened ever since, newer infrastructures and such. May Allah grant you peace and let you find a safe haven there
Sam of somali brother thank you for sharing your thoughts of life in somalia, it's really beautiful message to the world. god bless you and your family ❤️
Sam brother honestly you have inspired me to go back to my country 🇸🇴 . Thank you for showing the postive everyday life in the capital May Allah protect you and your family. May i also suggest you benefit the somali youth with your knowledge of the deen by setting up a islamic institute in the capital!
I was going to comment that you can live in Somalia for much lesser budget than that but you already mentioned it at the end of the video so thank you for being honest 😊
@@mathewvanostin7118 He's wife is Somali so what's wrong with moving to Somalia as long as it's benefiting them as a family. The guy is sharing his experience so be respectful and what's on the video's thumbnail could be a click bait just like every other video on the RU-vid
@@mathewvanostin7118 Somalia is not easy trust me, there's no jobs no industrial places to work, you won't make if your not organised. it's actually harder than in UK, if your broke in UK you can rely on government benefits etc, if your broke in Somalia your doomed so it makes people entrepreneurs self reliant so I like what he's doing
I like this dude for the sake of Allowing ❤ He’s really truthful about everything he said! I hate how it’s so expensive when it comes to buy a ticket to Somalia 😢
Sam Martin Burr, thank you so much for the detailed information ℹ️. I'm so impressed with your research and presentation. Caadi ma tihid, sxb😊! I'm rooting for you.🎉
Alhamdulillah. Great insight 👍. My first experience with Somali brothers was in Djibouti. There were lots of Somalian who have come to live there because of the war. After luhar prayers when we were about to have linch we invited them to join us. Believe me, though they were hungry they never rushed but instead they were waiting for other brothers to join. Subhanallah they were doing ikraam and they think others are in need more than they. May Allah bless them and make their country prosperous. Aameen
Hamarweyne market complex is the best for groceries with meat and fish market inside the same building and if you need malls it's next to several malls including Mogadishu mall. Also you get to see the most ancient buildings in the city including Arba rukun mosque and the oppression symbol the Catholic church the Italians left behind.
Another Halimo? Ibnu Hakim, you are crazy. Do you think he has a same mentality as you who only think having more women and not even talking care of them. Amaan sii dadka isjecel.
Xariis somaliya aad u fahmay waaye ninkaan qarashaadka uu sheegeeyo qaarkood ka badan anagoo wadanka udhalanay aa nalaga qaadooyaa. Allah bless you bro.
Brother you made my day by speaking some nice Somali words there😂 you nailed it actually you gathered correct information. I brought the family to Darasalam from Kenya a year ago and it is really cool they admired though I myself don’t stay but the entire family liked. Thank you for sharing the good content.May Allah protect you and your family. Keep up the good content. Peace and love for Somalia.
MashaAllah thank you brother for talking true, Somali raising everywhere, economic infrastructure, in progress the capital city Mugadisho ' we love our blood country Somalia big respect 🙏.
What westerners don’t realize is that you might be pricing out locals unfortunately but that’s the case in many countries who have large expat populations
Brother Sam have you ever visited other areas other than Mogadishu? The RU-vidr Geedi Sahan has put up videos recently of the town of Marka and also of Kooyaame island which is part of the Bajuni Islands they speak a language there that's similar to Swahili and the people are related to the coastal people of Kenya and Tanzania. This is the same for the city of Baraawe. Maybe you can do a vlog of your own about it.
Marca is like mogdhishu isn’t to specific to one tribe only but many tribes . Both the Somali language and the reer banadiri language aswell as May May is spoken marko. Reer banadiri hawiye sheeqaal and biimall are all living in marco
Yes I know walaal I was speaking about the Bajuni islands and Baraawe a different language is spoken there that's similar to Swahili. In Marka they speak Af Maxaad tiri (the standard Somali we all speak), Af Maay & Af Mahdoonte.
The Somali maxa tiri still dominate even barawe . Also af May May. But I know who you are talking about , it’s the af reer barawe. Yes it is similar to swahili a bit . It’s like the May May version of swahili
You're right somalia used to be good in early 2000 we use to live 50$ a month but now we use 1000 $ a month and we are not rich we live in rent house all of this because of hassan shaikh mahmood and the diaspora and the brokers they made our life difficult
So you wanna live low life? Do you thing that item are now like safety and lights and internet , mill , hospital , school are some in 2000?! To be like 2 world it cost a lot and payment get bigger, and getting big payment per month in africa it mean you can go anywhere like king whenever you like
@@spymasterk4873 so you're justfying the corruption of the government and brokers of land wow that's what tribelism did you you and you're far from Islam

You need to take security measures when you live in a huge house in any city. Drive through a wealthy neighbourhood in London or New York and tell me they don't have metal gates and high walls.
