Welcome

Hi everyone,

I would like to introduce myself and tell you why I've decided to join this this blogsite.

My name is Abdirashid and I'm 22 years old. I'm a Somali Dutch student from Amsterdam. The reason why I've decided to join this site is to speak out my opinion on some world matters. I'll post articles about different subjects.

It seems that many people on the web have a lot of hatred in them, misunderstand a lot of things and are biased. I'm here to try my utmost to soften or to eradicate those opinions. For a lot of great thinkers, poets, philosophers and prophets have done great things for this world. We musn't forget our common legacy.

The main issues and topics I'll be talking about are in the categories such as, current events, people, religion, politics, poetry, cultures, languages, travel and music. Of course something may occur that I'll post about that typical subject.

My main interest these days is the relation between the West and Islam. As if they are two entities that cannot mix in any way. Many misconceptions excist in the West about Islam, but this is also the case for Muslims about the West. You can ask questions and I'd be happy to help you and reply.

I hope you will not be doubting to send me a message or to reply to any of my (video)blogs. I will discuss in a respectful manner and I hope you will do too.

Forgive me for my errors in English if I'll make them in the future. English is not my first language.

Peace be upon you
