I hope Syria gets better. They accepted us warmly when we were at war. Until then, I hope they get what they’re looking for here in Somalia. The kindness they showed us then will be returned bidni lah.
nah they can just go to Saudi, Qatar, UAE etc... and live a better life there
they live in a good house that the poorest Somali people couldn't afford and Somali is slowly getting better they haven't experienced a terrorist attack in a while and i hope it stays like that
Ameen

You are right
@@abdirahmantallman2263 The double standards are so eerie in this video. This is how Europeans have felt for years.
Somali Syria, Yemen, Iraq, Afghanistan, turkey are our brothers as Somali we might be in a bad situation but you are always welcome to share with us whatever we have ♥️🇸🇴🇸🇾🇵🇸🇾🇪
lol no
@@ΧΧΤ lol? What's funny about that? These guys I consider my brothers especially Yemen! They do live with us some of them and it's cool! What's your issue and who the fk r you for your opinion to matter here?
@@dreamhiker1109 im syrian. my opinion here is more important than yours in this context.
why so angry?
🇸🇴🇸🇾🇵🇸🇾🇪
what is this?
@@ΧΧΤ No it isn't! Yemenis are my brothers like blood brothers! Best of the Arab world and I like that!
Somalia is not the poorest country, there's plenty of natural resources, but the people there don't build refinery and make use of it.
there were refineries, and more industries but civil war ate all that but it seem its coming back now
Get rid of Al-Shabab and the sky will be blue again .
he didnt say that. he said somalia is poor, and thats right.
@@ΧΧΤ divine poor
learn how to spell.@@Fifiyale
While they might wish for me, they have been given opportunity to share their story and I pray the refugees know that God has not forgotten them.
Somalis don’t even get this service they have a nice homes I have some mercy but I’ve been hearing to much Syrian complain whilst real Syrians started business and are making money like real people
@babafoodle9624yemanis and hargeisa
This is how Europeans felt about Somalis.
Somalia will be the place everyone will end up 2024😊

Insha allaha😊
May Allah swt ease your pain and lift you from your struggles AMEEN
Saudi Arabia Kuwait and UAE should help them
All Muslims should help. Instead of saying Saudi Arabia Kuwait and UAE. Just say Arabs should Arabs. Islam doesn’t not have a skin color. Middle East country claim not to be racist but there actions show different.
they wont gulf arabs are greedy af
@mobmotivation6797we will help Muslims always
@@letswin5007 Somalia are not arabs, so other wealthy arab countries like Qatar should help. somalia has its own problems it needs to get rid of.
Syrian should go back to their home country now no war over there
In the first place why they come to somalia if they a poor country. As we know somalia is a coming up country and there is a lot of job opportunities if you are a foreigner , but if you come and don’t wanna be work instead of that you stand in the streets with a board hopping some one will give you money that’s lame
Somalia is resources rich
And also the climate is stable in Somalia, you don't have cold seasons which make life easier aswell.
@babafoodle9624do they even learn Somali? I see them only talk Arabic and they have been in Somalia for a long time
True
all those somalians in kenya south africa europe usa etc feed by social money
how do you expect somalis to help you when we are also a war torn nation you are lucky we are even helping yall in the first place🤦
What nonsense are you talking about. A struggling person is always the first to help those struggling. Especially Somalis. Ceeb aleyk.
maybe somalia should not take in refugees next time?
@@ΧΧΤppl come illegally…
@ActuallyKennyMcCormick Everybody is welcome even though we ourselves are struggling the little we have to share
Every Syrian in Mogadishu lives in a hotel, they serve in the most expensive markets, they eat in expensive restaurants as well, every Syrian says my wife or mother is in a difficult situation and is undergoing surgery. need it urgently, I don't think they pay 10 dollars for their bed every night, Somalis help them a lot knowing that most of their claims are false, Syrians don't like the country's language and their country's currency. trying to force them to do something without leaving you, Somalis are generous people and don't imitate people who think that the Somali nation is smarter than them.
If you want to confirm the statement that someone from their family needs surgery, you can find it anywhere on social media, and in interviews with Somali journalists and local TV stations. They are looking for something to be done about their condition, Somalis know this, but they are only being treated as guests.
Syrians are amazing people very civilised (many of them work as doctors and dentists through out Somalia) but from what I've learnt there are one or two tribes in Syria (whose language is not even arabic) who even in prewar Syria were well known for having a begging culture. They were hated and despised by other Syrian people. I don't know if these people's claims is true or not Allah alone knows.
@@sunshineseaandvitamind8620 It is true that the report has been prepared, see the house he is in, even in the regions, sometimes you see them saying that we are Palestinians, when you say, what are you talking about, hunger does not choose a person, but to stay there. is an incorrect choice.
Bro Allah will punish if they are lying but Syrians are welcome in somalia and anyone who gives their sadaqqah even if the person is lying allah will still reward u for your charity
@@mukadoyouseph8614 That's why I'm so quiet
We don't have government but we have a good heart
We do have a government since 2012, you been asleep ?😂
We don’t have a government? Yaa? Who do u think Hassan sheikh Mahmoud is? 😂
I met a Syrian women begging in Dire Dawa (Western Somalia) I unfortunatley couldn't understand her since i don't know arabic but i hope Allah will help her
Ethiopia you mean
@@Sumaya_iran No it’s Somalia and it always has been

May allah help all Muslims aamiin
May Allah have mercy upon Syrians
I am so happy for our Syrian brothers may Allah take us out of poverty
man, this is sad 😔😔
hopefully, countries like qatar, saudi, UAE etc help them and live a better life! AMEN! INSHALLAH 🙏🙏
Somalia is not poor Country
But i think your'e talking about the somalian people ofcourse theyr'e in Hadship but Country is On peace way
SOMALIA WILL RETURN ❤
Why doesn’t he sell falafel, shawarma, etc as street food instead of begging
You need money to start a business
Their women can work as house maids like every other low income people in somalia. Their men can work in restaurants, schools, or markets. They can earn money and then start business. Somalis love people who are honest and hardworking, and they'll lend you a hand and support you.
Didn't you hear his health is not good. Don't comment if you don't understand English you dumb##$
bc he doesnt have the equipment?
Because to be able establish a business, you need money for permits etc and especially in unstable govt like Somalia, you need bribes & pass through the Somaliam bureacracy (especially since you are a technically "foreigner").
Why are people being so horrible in the comments, Syria has went through hell just like Somalia we should all support each other to the best we can
There are many Syrians here in Hargeisa too, most of them are beggars, we also have Yemenite’s who are hard working people and have integrated into our society and are already speaking Somali and I’ve never seen one of them begging. What’s the difference? Same hardships in their respective countries, I guess…….. I don’t know, never mind, we will still help them for the sake of ALLAH.
do the yemenis in sl speak fluent somali?
@@Amin-pn8vj I’ve seen some of them speak good somali

Yemenis work Syrians beg and don't wanna work they live in luxury hotels how does that work meanwhile Somali people are more hungary and never beg.
😂😂😂 bro that's true where are you from 😂
@@Adamchestemuzaahim somalia dont have little mercy to help these people even 50 thousand usd is good,all over the world are feeding somalians refuges

Welcome love syrians❤
THEY WANNA GET OUTT :(((((
The problem is Syrian refused to be registered at charties .
They are coming and leaving when they come first time I Somalia we give them houses and food and money just search 2019 to 2021 . they left and stayed hotels which costs 15 dollar per night they also luck of skills Yemens turn into are rich and have booming business,
Syrians were welcomed more than yemens their problem is travelling from city to city country to country they need integration programs .
Yemenis come with skills ,
Their condition is better than those who reside in lebonan who face mistreatment and the cold weather expiring visa also better then those who are living in Turkey and Jordan camps.
No offence but why are Muslim countries very unstable, why make life impossible for each other and your neighbours? What is the problem?
@@meeowgforevercivil war
@@meeowgforevermost Muslim countries aren’t bad it’s just some
Syrian Doesn't need to Work , while yemanis Work hard and rich
The Somali government is not able to accommodate you and manage your life, but it seems to me that you are not even living a poor life. Try to work for your family without depending on others.
he can't though the video stated he had a medical condition preventing him from working
Somalia 🇸🇴 💗 Syria 🇸🇾
is that yyou in your profile????? 😳😳😳😳😳😳
I feel for those struggling, but we have our own people struggling more, and some dont even have roof over their head like the family in the video. Syrians cannot expect that somalis only donate to them, since we will be distributing donations to all the need. The family in this video can easily find work, the women can work house maids for rich households and more. Unfortunately I have seen syrian refugees begging money in bakaro, while I was told they lived in darusalam (one of the richest neighbourhood in mogadishu). That ruins it for other syrians that truly are in need of donation.
And that's not acceptable, neither in somalia nor in islam.
We also have yemeni refugees, and so far I have seen, they work for their money, specifically in restaurants.
Syrians are nice people. Somalis love Syrians and respect, the problem is language barriers when immigrant came to a country they need to learn the language, and also Somalia is type of place that makes you scare first couple years, but after that you going to like it because of the people and the culture. Somalis are kind people. and understood what is like being a immigrant. i would suggest Syrian brothers try to learn the language open your mind stop comparison to your homeland understands this is deferent country things are bit deferent. but the good thing is Somalis loves Syrians the rest you can do for yourself be creative . Remember 45% Somalis are, or once was a immigrant to another country and some of them still are. by the way if you have shelter the rest will come
I'm Somali but this is not offensive to me. This is a sickness we have as an ummah, that we do not appreciate what we do have and stay humble. Brother that surgery will only help with the permission of The Most Merciful so just make dua to him and do the best you can.
As a somalia we are poor but have a faith
Just look the house he is living. That can be seen the truth ✅
It's not easy brothers we Somalis have been with out government for 30 years and millions of Somalis are in refugees it's not easy helping them we don't have the middle east oil or any other wealth my Allah help all those in need.
welcome to family somali
May allah ease on their hardship
May Allah give you a halal and generous sustenance. And all muslim refugees wherever they are
If you apply your self where ever you are, you will succeed.
The first couple someone tell them to teach Arabic.That's something they can offer that would help locals and help them too.
Somalia isnt a poor country and you guys should go back to your home country. Nacaaa ku taalo, dhago cas kibir baa haayo.
bro waa iga qoslisiisay wallahi🤣🤣🤣😂
😂😂😂😂😂
The press will not help you in any way. You should not have lied and described a country that welcomed you with this description, The house in which one lives can give an impression of its financial condition, If such a house is in the capital, its price will not be less than $500. How can he afford that? If all he gets is $1 a day, people here pay generously, but it's better to work than to look for charity.
horta somaalida waxaan kaga yaabay sida, un amaano ajaanibta iyo, in ay naga sareeyaan baan u dhaqamna, bal eega waxaa dadka meeshan soo qoreen XD
the thing is somalia is also a war torn country witch is still fighting terrories you cant realy expect them to be much of help as a somali will say the somali people are very kind to other its just that we cant help other if we are still taking to help our selfs we dont have the power to be helping other people and countries like kuwiet saudie and uae exist right next to them who should be helping and asisting these people they have billions to help them
قولو الحمد الله
Syrians with skills work in every sector some of them has blooming business,
But majirity of them luck off basic skills even they want to live hotels ,
Even middle class people around the World cannot afford
15 dollar hotels.
In Jordan, Turkey and lebonan even Syrian doctors are not allowed to works .
Somali r not poor they need peace, they got home and everything
I’m glad our Muslim brothers and sisters can take shelter in our beautiful country ❤ we may not have much now but give us time we are rebuilding inshallah
I can't understand what I say about Syrian people's actually am from Saudi Arabia I was offer nikah one poor Syrian family for help him but they are not accept my proposal because I thought that I will do marry in Syrian family and take care of him or him family but they are professional bigger my Allah protect everyone
Yeah and one you give they didn't stop imagine whole communty begging saying they all have medical problem but we didn't see yemani begging they work hard in somalia
The translation is so wrong pretty much what are they translating is is not what are they saying
beggars can't be choosers
Us Somalis see them as our brothers and sisters. ALL Muslims are welcome in Somalia and we will look after them the best we can. Go mind your own business Sam
This is not the real life
Most syrian peaple live and eat somathing may be 60 % of somali not eat and live this is not we help them we treat them like guests
This is not them th3 chanal is translating something they did not say
Why they are not go to the Saud arabia qadar and Morocco Algeria and Tunisia
This is why I don’t watch news . Always negative
Qatar should take them
.that is why i need an arafat
