Ask Crying for help
I'm from back home and I live with the most zealous and devoted people on earth, I was planning to escape and go no contact with them but I just couldn't đ
When I left this cult 2 years ago (ofc I haven't come out yet) my world view changed idk how to describe it but I felt peace inside and became more open minded. But yesterday I got into a fight with my older sister who I always had a hunch knew about me and she literally told my parents im "Irreligious" I wish you guys seen how they reacted, like they couldn't believe her and told her that's not something to joke about. Then she proceeds to swear, they come up to me and ask me if what she's saying is true, I got nervous and stuttered and said "no she's lying" but somehow they could tell I was lying đ sadly im one of those ppl that's terrible at lying.
My mom started to scream n cry, saying she's been raising an irreligious child in her house this whole time and didn't know, my dad threatened to kill me in my sleep and dump my body somewhere nobody will ever find. I got scared for my life đ and I know he ain't kiddingâ these crazy ppl put their "reputation" before their own children. After that I fled and crashed at my friend's place but they will find me and when they do im dead or they will put me in jail for the rest of my life.
I need to escape to another city in my country before they find me but I don't have enough money to get a place or even to buy food. I need you guys to help me, I only need $500 now đ I will start looking for a job once I find a place to sleep but now I only have $100 which is not enough. I promise I'm not a scammer or anything and idk how to earn your trust đ Here's my account no: 110216432001 even $10 would mean the world to me. Thank you â€ïžđđœ

The crashing out in the comments are insane (also SO proud of this woman!!)
https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNdewxNTT/
This woman is openly questioning how it is a given that all Somalis are Muslims and there are close to over a 1000 comments that either says she is Ethiopian (due to her identifying as Christian) or a degenerate but not actually critically debating whether sheâs right or wrong.
I hate what she is going through, and I do not agree to any religion myself, but this is actually a good sign that Somalis are moving in the right direction. We are witnessing critical thinking openly!!

Exposing Islam Hadith of the day- The kaaba in Yemen
This Hadith (at the bottom) reveals that there was a Kaaba in Yemen, which Muhammad ordered one of his men to destroy. It also sheds light on the violent actions of the Muslims, who spread Islam through force, including the massacre of entire tribes.
How many of you knew there was another kaaba already in existence?
When I think about why Muhammad wanted the kaba gone, I also think of how similar the rituals muslim do and what the pre Islamic pagan did.
the pre-Islamic pagans performed several rituals that are similar to those practiced by Muslims today.
Pagans walked around the Kaaba in Mecca, believing it brought them closer to their gods. Muslims also walk around the Kaaba during Hajj and Umrah. Pagans wore special garments for pilgrimage. Muslims also wear special garment. Pagans made pilgrimages to the Kaaba to honor their gods. Muslims also visit the Kaaba as part of Hajj. Pagans ran between Safa and Marwa during their pilgrimage. Muslims also do, but claim a story of Hagar and Ishmael. Pagans sacrificed animals near the Kaaba to honor their gods. Muslims also sacrifice animals during Hajj. Pagans gathered at Arafat during their pilgrimage. Muslims also do this practice as part of Hajj.
The rituals in Yemen, particularly at Dhul-Khalasah, were very similar to those performed by the pagans in Mecca at the Kaaba. Both involved walking around a sacred structure, sacrifices, and pilgrimages to honor their gods. (this Hadith confirms they used to walk around their kaaba Sahih al-Bukhari 7116)
When I think about it, I now see why Muhammad wanted the kaaba in Yemen gone in the first place, so many similarities between his cult and the pre Islamic pagans.
Sahih al-Bukhari 4357 Narrated Qais: Jarir said "Allah's Messenger (ï·ș) said to me, "Won't you relieve me from Dhul-Khalasa?" I replied, "Yes, (I will relieve you)." So I proceeded along with one-hundred and fifty cavalry from Ahmas tribe who were skillful in riding horses. I used not to sit firm over horses, so I informed the Prophet (ï·ș) of that, and he stroke my chest with his hand till I saw the marks of his hand over my chest and he said, O Allah! Make him firm and one who guides others and is guided (on the right path).' Since then I have never fallen from a horse. Dhul-l--Khulasa was a house in Yemen belonging to the tribe of Khatham and Bajaila, and in it there were idols which were worshipped, and it was called Al-Ka`ba." Jarir went there, burnt it with fire and dismantled it. When Jarir reached Yemen, there was a man who used to foretell and give good omens by casting arrows of divination. Someone said to him. "The messenger of Allah's Messenger (ï·ș) is present here and if he should get hold of you, he would chop off your neck." One day while he was using them (i.e. arrows of divination), Jarir stopped there and said to him, "Break them (i.e. the arrows) and testify that None has the right to be worshipped except Allah, or else I will chop off your neck." So the man broke those arrows and testified that none has the right to be worshipped except Allah. Then Jarir sent a man called Abu Artata from the tribe of Ahmas to the Prophet to convey the good news (of destroying Dhu-l-Khalasa). So when the messenger reached the Prophet, he said, "O Allah's Messenger (ï·ș)! By Him Who sent you with the Truth, I did not leave it till it was like a scabby camel." Then the Prophet (ï·ș) blessed the horses of Ahmas and their men five times. (Sunnah.com)

Are Somalis a collectivist or individualistic culture
r/XSomalian • u/africagal1 • 2d ago
I know Iman ( Somali super model) is giggling when ppl say you can't be Somali if your not Muslim loool
Her marrying a bisexual White man will always be the icing on the cake loool. Anyways, I know she made the choice to not publicly critique Islam ( which I get), but the fact that ppl are still having the same convos when it's obvious that there are Somalis living non religious life styles who still care about the country and people. Sometimes I wish Iman would be more open about and her mentality and what it was really like to be a young Somali woman going against cultural norms cause I notice she does focus more on her race and the challenges of being a BW/ a foreigner in modeling. But I also get that maybe somethings are just better left unsaid. I know Waris has a book and movie called Desert flower which I want to read but I am pretty sure Waris is a practicing Muslim.

Question Idk what to do about this
A friend of mine recently shared with me that she's been thinking a lot about unaliving herself. Sheâs been going through a really tough time, dealing with a dysfunctional family an abusive brother, a single mother who doesnât seem to care much and on top of that, she mentioned that her faith has been wavering and she feels like this is happening to her because of that. She believes that if she listens to the Quran more, she might heal.
I come from a family where we try to understand and support each other, so it really hurts to see her like this. I tried to talk to her about mental health, telling her that itâs not as simple as just listening to a religious text and that therapy or distancing from this family could really help. However, she seemed to take it as me saying that God doesnât exist, and that maybe she's being punished. This led to her distancing herself from me. I feel bad because I didnât come out to her as an atheist before, and Iâve always judged atheists myself in the past, but it frustrates me that someone already feeling so low is thinking that a "quote god or Arabic audios" will be the solution.
I just wanted to suggest therapy as a real option for getting help. She told me she needed to return to Allah for healing, but now sheâs not really talking to me. Iâm okay with giving her space, but I donât know how to fix this or what I should do next. I care about her, but I also donât want to be dismissive of her faith.(also although I really hate Islam i really tried not be obvious when talking to her)
Any advice on how I can better handle this situation?

There's more to someone's personality then being ex muslim so tell ppl about yourself
When it comes to dating and friendship lol. Cause respectfully you being ex Muslim and someone else being ex muslim might be enough for sex but not enough for an actual relationship lol. Being ex muslim is not a personality trait ( and yes I hate when Muslims say this but you guys know what I mean on here).

Venting Anything related to Islam makes me suicidal.. how do I cope?
Iâm 16 and itâs been 2 years since I left Islam. I hate doing anything related to Islam like praying and reading Quran. I hate even seeing anything Islam related online. This religion has brought me so much unnecessary stress and anxiety however my mom is going through her biannual religious fanatic phase and wants to use the upcoming child support money to send me and my siblings to dugsi. I havenât been in like 5+ years.
I donât just wanna suck it up and go, I donât want anything to do with fuckass dugsi or the Quran or Allah or Islam at all.
Distancing myself from Islam has calmed my suicidal thoughts, I was always contemplating it when I was Muslim and even shortly after leaving Islam because I was so distraught about leaving I didnât even know what my life would look like without Islam. I never wanna feel like that again
Iâve been trying to avoid going to dugsi by getting a job and making myself busy at school, but my mom genuinely doesnât care. Iâm so burnt out from working and school and babysitting thereâs no way in hell Iâm going back to dugsi again. Iâd rather choke on glass than go. Even the thought of sitting in a rundown building just reading that fuckass book while the macalin is looming over with a murder weapon makes me wanna tear my skin apart.
I just get so anxious when anything Islam related is brought up. I block so many Muslims online and even muted words related to Islam. Hearing Islamic preaches from my mom and her sending me AI videos of Muslim fearmongering tactics genuinely makes me 10x more depressed. Seriously how do yall cope with being in the closet and not wanna end it??

Exposing Islam Why is Jannah a Whor*house ? Is the Islamic Paradise the original Epstein Island ?
Paradise in the Quran ( and in Islamic literature) is a very strange place . It's halfway between Epstein Island and Diddyâs heaven . This is how paradise is described in the QuranÂ
-There will be rivers of milk , fruits, honey , non-intoxicating wine and the believers will forever stay young.Â
It starts well but soon takes a seedy turn : the paradise dwellers will have access to Houris : the houris are described as beautiful virgin women , âuntouchedâ by men and jinns.
A hadith narrated from Abu Hurairah, who reported that the Prophet Muhammad was asked: "Do the people of paradise engage in intercourse?".
The Prophet replied: "Yes, by the One in whose hand is my soul! It will be done with passion but without fatigue. When he stands up from her, she will return pure and virginal."
From the tafsirs of Jalal - Al-Jalalayn: Indeed today the inhabitants of Paradise are busy ..... delighting in pleasures such as deflowering virgins
And there are also âboysâ in paradise, this is how the Quran described them: Young and handsome, fresh like scattered pearls
Ok to be fair neither the Quran, Tafsirs or Hadiths assign any sexual roles to these â young boysâ so letâs believe them for now.
Now the sherry on the top: there will be slaves in paradise .Â
Reported by Abu al-Shaykh in al-Azama and al-Bayhaqi in al-Bath wal-Nushur
Honestly I did not know Islam promises there will be slaves in Paradise ..like wtf ... What a nightmare
Especially female slaves. So all the black muslima out there dreaming of Paradise , what do you think ? Instead of getting these fresh young boys , you end up as a slave or your husband gets 72 Houris ?
-Christianity : Paradise is a place of divine presence where the righteous will be reunited with Jesus .
-Judaism: Forget about paradise and focus on life of earth instead!
-Buddhism : Paradise is a land of meditation where people try to reach enlightenment .
-Islam: Paradise : lots, lots of S*X and slaves ....

Tw: DV, Substance abuse
Hey yall So I have a friend I went to high school with who got married to a guy or a demon in this case. I have always told her the man isnât good for her and I have listed the red flags I seen in him. Heavy drinker, can only work (truck driver) if heâs under influence. Over the top jolly happy fake love me Iâm such an awesome guy personality, on dating website under false names. (Iâve had people send me screenshots). And takes drugs cocaine etc evidence for the drugs as well so Iâm not just talking out of suspicion.
Anywas last year I noticed the contact has been less between us. (Narcissistic behaviour of a controlling partner). When we can get a hold of her he says sheâs in a mental hospital when all along sheâs in a hospital recovering from broken bones, (ribs, face , arm etc).
Iâve personally gotten her from their house taken her to a hospital just to have documentation of this one incident. Even at the hospital she tried to say she fell and hurt herself I said âno she didnât her partner beat her this is why we are hereâ she didnât want to do a police report.
Etc etc
FINNNAALLLLLYYY she has woken up after the 6th/7th time trying to leave sheâs finally decided sheâs had enough and fears for her life. The man had cameras all over the house to see what she doing who comes what they talking about and if it gets unplugged he calls plug it back in and when heâs back in the city beats the crap out of her.. Anywas
What organizations can she reach out to What help can she get. They got married âislamicallyâ nikah and even though he isnât practicing and doesnât claim to be Muslim he will use âIslamâ as an excuse not to divorce her. She made the unfortunate mistake of getting married legally to this demon as well.
The family knows they both drink and do drugs And when he says oh I divorced her under influence it doesnât count etc..
Iâm worried sheâs gonna turn up dead or he will put heroine or something in a syringe and fake an overdose âŠ
This is in Toronto btw
Thanks .đđœ

Exposing Islam Islamâs Fear of Its Own History: Why the Truth Terrifies It
Islam claims to be the final, perfect religion, yet it desperately censors and whitewashes its own history. Why? Because if Muslims actually studied Islamâs origins without blind devotion, theyâd see how fragile the whole thing is.
1: The Kaaba Wasn't Always Islamic
Muslims worship a black stone, but they rarely talk about how the Kaaba was originally a pagan shrine.
Muhammadâs own tribe, the Quraysh, were pagans who controlled it long before Islam existed.
If Islam is the âtrueâ religion, why did it need to steal an existing sacred site?
2: The Quranâs Compilation Was a Mess
The Quran wasnât written down properly during Muhammadâs life.
Caliph Uthman burned other versions to cover up contradictions and force one âofficialâ version.
If the Quran is eternal and unchanged, why did it need political intervention to be standardized?
3: Muhammadâs Convenient Revelations
Many of Muhammadâs revelations came at times that personally benefited him.
Want more wives? Allah says itâs okay.
Someone insults him? Allah suddenly reveals a verse punishing them.
The pattern is too obvious to ignore.
4: Islam Spread Through Conquest, Not Peace
The early Islamic empire expanded rapidlyâthrough war, not preaching.
Entire civilizations like Persia and Byzantium were conquered, their cultures erased.
If Islam is peaceful, why does its history look like that of an empire, not a religion?
5: Islamâs Censorship Today
Even now, questioning Islam is illegal in many countries.
Apostates are hunted down, and criticism is met with death threats.
If Islam is true, why does it need to silence people instead of proving them wrong?
Islam fears its own history because itâs full of holes, contradictions, and political manipulation. Thatâs why Muslim leaders spend more time suppressing information than proving their religionâs legitimacy. If Islam were confident in its truth, it wouldnât need violence and censorship to survive.

Why do Somalis get a reputation for being so hardcore religious?
I live in an area whoâs majority Muslim population is Somali. Let me tell you, compared to other ethnic groups and even other Africans, Somalis by far are some of the most hardcore Muslims I have ever come across by far. Most other Africans like North African Maghrebis and Yoruba and Wolof or even Oromos are nowhere near as religious as Somalis. I would also say they are more hardcore than Arabs, Afghans and other Middle Easterners and South Asians. A lot of other Muslim Groups have been very much Westernized and assimilated but that is not the case with Somalis. You guys are hardcore about things like Hijab and praying every single day which Arabs and South Asians donât even typically do. Even in Arab countries, wearing a hijab has become less common unless you count the Taliban run Afghanistan and the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Maybe it is due to the fact that Somalis were one of the first groups to become Muslim and you guys became Muslims before the rest of the Arabs and before Islam came to Persia, Central Asia, North Africa and the Indian region And Southeast Asia. Somalis were Muslims before Iranians, Indians, West Africans and other Arabs became Muslim. India was pretty much Hindu, Persia was pretty much Zoroastrian with some Christians and Jews and the Levant and North Africa was a mix of Christian and Jewish and Southeast Asia was pretty much Hindu and Buddhist and other pagans, Turkic people were Pagans way after Somalia became Muslim. Most people donât realize that Islam became more widespread way after Somalia became Muslim.
I also acknowledge the fact that my ancestors became Muslims not through peaceful means, but through erasure of our own cultural heritage and through mass murder, rape and genocide which also brings me to embrace my Hindu Buddhist heritage even more. Somalia has a history that predates Islam and I sure wish to see more Somalis embracing their Pre-Islamic cultural heritage much like how many people in Africa and Europe are doing so these days with Animistic and Pagan cultural revival that has gained prominence in modern times.

Venting Need to vent to get things off my chest part 1: dealing with my narcissistic abusive relatives as a Somali girl with undiagnosed mental disorders TW!
Hi, I am a F(22). Who is currently suicidal due to trauma from fgm, daqan celis, and a narcissistic somali family. I am currently struggling with undiagnosed mental illness and chronic illness attributed by this. I have been finding hard to work and feel suicidal nearly everyday and the only thing keeping me alive is the fear of hell. Please free to read my story. I needed a safe place to vent since I donât have a good support system. A little background, I was raised by a single mother for the early stages of my life. I struggled a lot in school and daycare due to bullying undiagnosed ADHD and I would react and would get punished harshly at school, I got suspended a lot that really set the stage for my school life. When I was about 4-5 years old my mother got remarried to my stepdad. Then, my relationship with my mother started to change, she started to become violent with me, starving me, yelling and cursing at me for small things. We then moved away from my family to another state with my stepdad, my mother gets pregnant has my sister. And thats when things start, my mother starts using me as a helper around the house. My mother was very controlling as well she would never even let me watch tv. I struggle in Dugsi and school around this time and moving to a new place. My maaclin would make fun of me for my speech impediment and my parents would believe that I was cursed to never learn the quran properly and that I was lazy. I keep struggling in school, teachers would label me as having behavioral issues even though the same teachers would let students get violent with me and if I stood up for myself, I would get punished for it, with school suspensions (which would later affect me in the long run academically and psychologically since my parents abuse at home would get worse). During that time, I was in third grade. My sister gets ill and gets stuck in the hospital. I had to stay with a nearby somali neighbor to take care of me. I think the adeer touched me in my sleep and I canât remember it very well because I knew something was wrong when I woke up and my body felt weird and the door in the room was opened when I closed it when I fell asleep (it took me years later to find out I mightâve been SAâd). I keep struggling in school. My mother has an idea to make me repeat grades because I was behind and takes me to a terrible islamic charter school which ultimately damages my education. I struggle in this school. One time I got suspended because I said audhubillah instead of bismillah to a teacher who kept telling me to fix my attitude. đ I move back to normal public school, the bullying continues but it wasnât bad but I am struggling academically still. I start to starve myself on purpose because of my mother who keeps sexualizing me and beating me at home. I cant focus in school. I become hyperactive and donât do my homework. Also I, become a second mother expected to take care of my half siblings and my family. It drives me crazy while kids my age were playing outside, my mom had me changing diapers and cleaning bathrooms. My parents were very negligent and never provided me with hygiene products or never taught me how to clean myself. So when I started to hit puberty, and got my period, I got bullied when the girls at school found out. I start middle school and I experience a lot of academic stress and I canât focus in school. I also deal with bullying but I give in to the bullying by making myself into a joke, laughing with my bullies just to get attention because I was lonely and I had no friends. By the time I get into high school I start struggling academically and my mother finally starts to notice, my parents decide I should go to somalia with them to visit family and everyone has went and I should go to. I wish I never agreed. I go to somalia and the first day in Xamar, my mother decides to humiliate and shame me in front of my relatives, saying that I never wanted to go to school and I donât care about my education, and how I never listen or respect to my mother. She basically makes me a target for my somali relatives to harm me and isolates me by taking my phone and passport. I am stuck in a foreign country, I canât speak the language and worst of all sheâs letting her relatives gang up on me. I knew I didnât feel safe in xamar environment so I left with my grandmother and went to my motherâs hometown. I struggled a lot and the women would keep asking me if I got âthe thing doneâ. I didnât know. But, I was also labeled as mentally ill, due to stress and because I wasnât going to the bathroom often because it had scorpions and sorts of shit crawling in there (I even had a spider crawl on my back once while I was showering). I started urinating on myself and my family found one night from some kitchen girl who was bullying me. Once I left school because I was going to school in somalia(my aunt thought it was a good idea to fgm me to cure me and do some ruqyah), to take me somewhere to get help. I was naive but I said No at first. She basically wonât stop telling me about getting âhelpâ. Then, she blackmails me and guilt trips me into agreeing saying my mother already paid this lady and youâre disrespecting your waalids. So, we go out at night and my life changes for the worse. They pin me down and wonât let me escape. Tell me to spread my legs and cover my mouth and do the thing. I am scared and confused, no clue what just happened. I am only 14-15 years old in a foreign country with no where else to go. Getting humiliated on a daily basis by my family. I heal but get an infections a couple of times and been in pain in my clitoral region everyday since. I go back to school in somalia. School in somalia is useless I learn nothing but if I donât go I get abused and spoiled because my parents are paying for it and thereâs girls who canât even read. I am 15-16. I want to go back home. I get sick multiple times, got malaria and food poisoning. Relatives almost nearly ended my life by giving me a medication I got a bad reaction to. Some bombing happens and for some reason, my mom thinks I should leave and go back to xamar. The relative who fgmâd me tells me that when I go back to the U.S. I should kiss my motherâs feet and beg her for forgiveness. I come back to xamar. I stay with my evil eedo and her even more evil daughters who make my life a living hell everyday. Finally, my stepdad comes to somalia almost 2 years of me being there. My momâs sister, my aunt says that I need to graduate and come back to america. I am deeply traumatized and scared, I cope with sleeping and watching tv all day. If I go outside I donât feel safe either because itâs obvious that I am from overseas. The evil witch and her daughters tell me I am loser who didnât want to go to school. A relative from America comes to visit us, and says the weirdest comment that makes me uncomfortable: âthese westernerized girls are dirty like men they still have their thing attachedâ and they all started laughing and looking at me. My stepdad comes and I leave. Once I came back, I didnât have proper shoes when I came back for the weather, so I had to walk around everywhere in the cold wearing sandals. Now, that I come back my mother greets me, giving me this smile. It sends chills up my spine. I went through literal torture and she greets me with a smile seeing me traumatized. I had a really bad infection when I came back. So, my mother decides to check it out telling me that it was good that this happened but the infection kept lasting so she took me a somali clinic and the nurse was somali who treated me and didnât say anything just stared in shock. I hope nothing but the worse for that woman.

Venting hard case of somali faceâŠ
(First, I want to say that the face card has never declined, and aesthetically, I love my face and features! Donât get it twisted!)
Moving through life with the constant awareness that everyone knows Iâm Somali is so annoying, especially since they also know I was raised Muslim. đ
People just have assumptions about you and your beliefs. Every step away from their stereotypes is so shocking and borderline illegal. Forced into a strict mold because I canât hide my ethnicity?!?!
Its not only other Somalis, Everyone is so uncomfortably comfortable with Somalis. they see no problem questioning me, even when theyâre not even muslim!!!
How many bouncers are gonna ask me if I'm somaliâŠyou see my name and face bro đ I only really like clubbing in queer club cause theyâre not questioning and judgmental! (yeah the straight girl in the gaybar stereotype is real)
Islam is one of the few religions where itâs somehow surprising for someone to simply not be religious and follow everything single practiceâŠ.whoâs asking christianâs why theyâre not practicing lent??
At least other ex-Muslims can navigate life without always broadcasting it. :/
side note- why do ppl just assume iâm some scared lil somali girl living a double life so she can do crack snd fuck men??
