Who Speaks Swahili Here? (OP)
Asallam alykum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
Who can speak Swahili Here?
Just Curious.............
InshAllaah kheiran
Barakatullah feekm
Wasalaamalykum
In the Name of Allaah, the Most Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy. By the time! Verily mankind is at loss – except for those who believe and perform righteous deeds, and advise one another towards the truth and advise one another towards patience. ’

Well that could be the case. The Swahili I know (or the lack of it in my case) is spoken in Kenya, Mombassa.
Do you know this song: mamako star, star! Ana koola fish, fish, ooji na coke! Lol.
And how about this one: samaki akeoza msintoope, mtafote malimawo mkaooshe…..Lol, classic!
وَاصْبِرْ وَمَا صَبْرُكَ إِلاَّ بِاللّهِ
ما بعرف انا شو حسيت

I don't know anything.
I had family living in Kenya and Nairobi but we are all in the UK now. I was born in the UK so I have no idea of the language.
