Massa,
Msome John Sivalon (1992), Bergen (1981) na Njozi (2002).
Anaandika ukweli ambao hutaki kuusikiaHuyu mzee wangu wa Gerezani aangaliwe vizuri.
Nakubali ni msomi mzuri hapa nchini, nakubali ana busara ila anatumia akili zake kucheza na akili za watu.
Sijawahi kusikia popote duniani mtu anajiita mwana historia kwa kubobea kwenye kata moja tu,.
Mohamed Said anajiita hi historian lakini ukumfuatilia hana anachojua zaidi ya historia ya kariakoo.
Maandishi yake yana udini ndani yake,mara nyingi huwa ndio agenda kuu ya kila anachoandika, udini. Ngugi wa Thiong'o aliwahi kutunga kitabu akasfiwa na mzee Kenyatta kumbe kItabu kinamsema vibaya,alitumia literature,ambayo kila mtu huwa na tafsiri yake.
Kwa tuliosoma literature na history tunamuekewa sana huyu mzee,aporwe tuzo alizowahi kupewa.
Kuna kitabu cha The Modern World Since 1870 by L Snelgrove kinaelezea nchi nyingi za ulaya zilivyoingia vitani kwa sababu ya watu dizaini ya huyu mzee.
Huyu mzee sio kilaza, yupo vizuri kichwani ila agenda yake ina ukakasi,ndio maana kipindi cha Nyuma alijistukia akawa anaandika kimachale machale kumuogopa bwana yule.
Massa,Mkuu mimi nimeomba maoni yako Kama mdau na mtanganyika muislam. Nini kifanyike kuondoa matatizo ya waislam Tanzania usikwepeshe tafadhari. Mwisho wa siku vizazi vitawalaumu kwa kushindwa kupata suluhu ya matatizo ya waislam wa Tanzania
Uoga huuHuyu mzee wangu wa Gerezani aangaliwe vizuri.

Mohamed Said analilia kuwa wazazi wake hawakutajwa kwenye historia ya uhuru wa Tanganyika!! This is absurd and totally nonsensical. Hsitory takes big picture only, not those trivials. Any way kama Waislamu wamempa tuzo kwa kuandika pumba its well and good kwa sababu hizo ndiyo wanapenda kusikiliza.Umempa attention asiyokua nayo binafsi sioni Cha kuhatarisha amani katika maaandishi yake wala hayana nguvu yeyote ya kuathiri fahamu za watu, humu Kuna kila aina ya watu wanaosoma maandishi yake wangeona yana impact yeyote bas wangeshamnyoa kipara kitambo sana
Ile historia ni ya familia yake tu ambayo yy kaamua kuandika kutunza kumbu kumbu zake kwa faida ya vizazi vyake bas lakini kwa mawanda ya kitaifa sidhani kama ni dili sana na Wala haina tija sana
Umempa kidonge cha maradhi yake.Ajitokeze tumjue na tuangalia kama ana chochote cha maana alichonacho na alichochangia kwa taifa.Nadhan ili uweze kmtuhumu hivyo.na wewe ujitokeze tukujue .sasa ndio upimane ubavu wa kielimu na ki ilmu na mr mohamed.tumia i.d yako real.
Hzo kelele zake hazina madhara kama wengi tunavomfikiria, upuuzi naouona ni yy kutaka kutuaminisha ile ndo historia ya Tanganyika, uandishi wa historia sensitive kama ya taifa unaaangalia vitu vingiMohamed Said analilia kuwa wazazi wake hawakutajwa kwenye historia ya uhuru wa Tanganyika!!

Nimetembea Senegal yenye Waislamu zaidi ya 95%, wala sikukuta Waislamu wenye roho za kulalamika kama huyu babu. Rais wa kwanza wa Senegal Leopold Sedar Senghor ni Mkristu na alitawala kwa muda mrefu kuanzia 1960 hadi 1980, na Waislamu walimpokea na kushirikiana naye. Senegal ni nchi ya mfano ya Waislamu ambao hawana itikadi ya ki -mujahedeen. Wanaswali vizuri bila kelele kwenye minarets zao, hawana shida na minorities Wakristu na nguruwe zao na wala huwezi kuuwakuta vijana wao kwenye operesheni za Al Shabab au Bokoharam. Ila huyu babu siyo wa kumuendekeza, akipata fursa ya kuvaa mabomu atakuja yavaa
Massa,
Ningekuwa mkwepaji nisingeandika kitabu cha Abdul Sykes.
Unaniuliza mimi nini kifanyike kwa nini huwaulizi wabunge ambao ndiyo wawakilishi wa umma?
Kwa Kweli umepanguaa kila kituAnti...
Lakini mimi si mtu wa dini ingawa ni Muislam.
Eneo langu ni katika ''Scholarship,'' yaani elimu.
Kusoma, kusomesha na kuandika.
Haya si maeneo ya ''washabiki,'' na ''wafuasi.''
Hao utawapata kwengine.
Haya yangu ni maeneo ya elimu na utafiti.
Nitafute katika Cambridge Journal of African History (1998).
Nitafute katika Dictionary of African Biography (2011)
Nitafute katika Nyerere Biography (2020)
Je umeona dini hapo?
Kulikuwa na mjadala hapa JF uliodumu kwa miezi 6 nikisomesha historia hii.
Mjadala ulipitiwa na watu karibu milioni moja.
Haijapata kutokea.
Wewe ulikuwa wapi?
Anti...
Hakika wako wengi wasionijua ikiwa si wanachama wa ''clubs'' mfano wa hizo hapo juu na hapo chini lakini nafahamika hapa Dar es Salaam kwa kuwa ndiyo kwetu na kwa mengine mengi.
Ningependa kukufahamu.
Nani mwenzangu?
Mitaa niliyopata kuishi mimi inajieleza yenyewe:

Massa,Nitajie mbunge yeyote aliyoko bungeni kwa mgongo wa dini yake ili nimuulize? Na mimi nimekuhuliza maoni yako Kama muislam. History umeandika nzuri tu. Je kwenye hiyo history hukuona makosa yoyote ambayo ungetamani yafanyiwe marekebisho?
Mpaji...Hzo kelele zake hazina madhara kama wengi tunavomfikiria, upuuzi naouona ni yy kutaka kutuaminisha ile ndo historia ya Tanganyika, uandishi wa historia sensitive kama ya taifa unaaangalia vitu vingi
Sasa nani amekwambia ili uwe Mwanahistoria lazima ujue Historia ya kila mahali ?Mohamed Said anajiita hi historian lakini ukumfuatilia hana anachojua zaidi ya historia ya kariakoo.
Dah,hapo sawaSasa nani amekwambia ili uwe Mwanahistoria lazima ujue Historia ya kila mahali ?
Unaweza kuwa Mjuzi wa Historia ya ukoo wenu tu, na ukaitwa Mwanahistoria.
Hujaona watu wanabobea katika Historia fulani tu na wakaitwa Wanahistoria ?
Massa,
Mimi kazi yangu ni kusomesha siyo kuingia katika malumbano.
Massa,Wewe kweli ni msomi na unajua unachokifanya hongera mkuu. Ila matatizo ya waislam yataendelea kuwepo hadi kiama maana hakuna wa kuyasemea
Bado kofia utavikwa wew kutokana na chuki yako kwa wakristoTash...
Ukianza na huyu mzee najua umeghadhibika.
Hii ndiyo sababu unatukana.
Mimi si ''mpuuzi.''
Mimi sina chuki na yeyote.
Wala moyo wangu hauwaki moto.
Moto unawaka ndani ya nafsi yako wewe.
Ushahidi ndiyo huu: ''Huyu mzee,'' na kutukana, ''Mpuuzi,'' ''Flash.''
Haya si maneno ya adabu kumwambia mtu ambae unajua ni mzee.
Ningekuwa mpuuzi watu wasingejaa kwenye nyuzi zangu kunisoma na kujadiliana na mimi.
Tukiwaita watu watuhukumu si mimi nitakaevishwa kofia ya mpuuzi.
