Imam Mohammad Tawhidi

What does that mean?

It means

I am a Muslim who is Arab, who comes from the tribe of Tai, Tai being one of the most prominent, the prominent tribes in Arabia.

And God sent a prophet.

You know how in Judaism, God sends prophets from the Israelites for the Israelites, right?

So God sent a prophet to us who spoke our language, right?

And God sent down his book in my language.

The Quran says inside that we created it or we made it an Arabic Quran in order for you to understand.

Meaning that its original language was not Arabic.

It was made Arabic for us.

If God in Islam wants to speak to the Somali community, He speaks to them in Arabic.

They can translate it all they like.

But this is the language of Islam, Arabic.

God doesn't have a language.

But God spoke to us in Arabic, in my language, in my mother tongue.

And He sent a prophet to us.

He didn't put us in a different continent and then a prophet came to us from a different continent like Islam moved and people converted after receiving its message in Malaysia and Indonesia and the Indian subcontinent.

This is mine.

My ancestors are the companions of the prophet.

Adi bin Hatim At-Ta'i gave two eyes for the prophet in defending him.
