Ha ha ha!!Ukiondoa Zanzibar kwenye jina hili nchi yetu itaitwa TANIA.
And we deserve the name kwa sababu mambo mengi ya muhimu tunafanya UTANI.
To move the world we must first move ourselves - Socrates
Kweli unaupeo mdogo....umeonyesha Nyerere akiwa ktk mazungumzo, JK na Membe wakiuza nchi....mwenye akili anapata Tafsiri yake.
Hizo elimu za nyota(horoscope) zinawasumbua...bora mngesoma astronomy...nimekuambia thibitisha wapi sijui Arabism na Islamism unajifanya hujaelewa.
Azania ni term iliyoanzishwa na watu wa nje ya africa ila si waarabu, na walivyoisema alisema kwa reference za mto unaomwaga maji baharini ktk ukanda wa EA.na haiwezi kuwa pangani, kwa sababu nyingine ila iliwakilisha vyema Kilwa .na huko palipatikana fedha za kale na vitu vingine vya warumi.
Kurefer ktk islam na si Arabs ni jambo sahihi kwa vile waarabu kabla ya uislam walikuwa na mahusiano tofauti sana na dunia, ukilinganisha na siku za baada ya Uislam.Pi andicho kinachoongeza mijadala hapa.Kwani ndio mnapigana mkidhani vitu fulani muaminivyo kuhusu uislma ni sahihi.
Waarabu walikuwa sahihi sana kuupinga uslam ingawa Enthiopia walifanya ujinga na hadi leo unawacost.Mfalme wa Ethiopia kumkaribisha na kumpa hifadhi Mohamed na majeshi kulimponza sana.Na hilo watalijutia sana wahabeshi...sasa hivi nchini kwao hakuna mwislam hata mwenye shukrani kwa hilo...wapo busy kuingamiza nchi yao.
Wewe mwehu sana unadhani kila mtu anamezeshwa?kumezeshwa mmezoea nyie ndio manakariri maandiko eti kuyahifadhi..ndio maana vita ya Badr iliwaacha na mistari pungufu...karne hii mnakarii na computers ,na vitabu vya kuhifadhi kila kitu.Bado mnajifanya kuwa hard disk.
Yaani kikisemwa kitu ambacho kinaonyesha upuuzi wa waarabu ,wewe unasema ubaguzi.kweli dini yako imekushida kubaya.Kwa mwarabu mtu mwingine asiye qurayish hata ashike dini kivipi bado si equal.Nanyi mnalijua hilo ndio maana mnatumika sana.
Historia ya waarabu km ilivyoandikwa na wenyewe na watu wengine inaonyesha wazi Waarabu ni wageni Africa km wengine..Muhamad ktk quran anawasema "vichwa vyao" tena anatumia "...hata Abysinian...wenye vichwa km....".Dharau ya kwanza kwa mwafrica.Neno "...Zenj..."Limetumika kusema nchi ya watu weusi".haya yote yanaonyesha kuwa Africa ilikuwa foreign kwa waarabu
Halfu unasemaje zenj ni yasili ya mwarabu?At least ungesema nchi km Misri kwa ukaribu wangeweza kuw awlianzisha mahusinao muda mrefu.Kwani waarabu walifanya biashara na wayahudi na wengine.Na tayari walikuw ana Wakristu wengi tuu hadi Mecca yenyewe.
Kwa hiyo wakiwa wa Caravana ndio wana uhalali wa kukutawala na kukuuza?Halafu wapi nimeona sifa na kujazwa ujinga?Mna milions of ways z akuwafanya muwe watumwa.Waislam n autumwa ni damu damu...wana vitu vingi sana vya kuwazuia fikra zao,wana vitu vingi wamewekewa ili wasikombolewe.Wanaambiwa wengine wana hila,fitna,husda, na mengine,basi wakitoka nje wakikutana na kitu kimoja wanabaki si unaona.Mbaya hizo tuhuma ndizo zinawatafuna wao wenyewe kuliko.....
Masikini weee..."Mnahitaji jua kweli na weli iwaweke huru".Jesus` "Injil" is the most Liberating word ever.
HUku kufananisha ujinga hauna maana,waafric ahwakujipa jina wenyewe, kw ahiyo fikra za wageni ziliwapa mjina mengi tuu..kwa hiyo acha elimu za sheikh yahaya ktk vitu real.Tunaongelea Watu na nchi na si nyota hapa.Mimi naweza kuita "kilaza"..50 years hilo jina haliweze tumika kukuhalalishia nchi yoyote.
Nimesoma,mara nyingi sana tangu ikiwa hapa JF,ndio maana nikalisema mapema.ila mtu anaweza sema apendacho muda wowote...na anaweza tumia coincidence tuu...na pengine anaweza asiwe yeye mbunifu wa hayo.
Babako anaweza sikuambie ilikuweje akazaa na mamako kwa vile sasa hivi atmosphere imebadilika na anahisi kuna politics ndani yake.Inawezekana hakuwahi mpenda ila alikuwa njaa kali,akapata msosi na dose, anaweza kuwa limbaka, inaweza kuwa hakuwahi na option nyingine.Ila leo anaweza kuambia mambo mengi sana ...
Kuna vingi vinatia mashaka ndio maana nikaleta hiyo changamoto hapa.
Ndio maana nikakwambia huelewi kitu na umejazwa ujinga wa ubaguzi. Neno "zenj" kwa maana kamili halimaanishi mtu mweusi, kwa kukupa darsa ili ujisaidie siku nyingine, maana ya "zenj" ni "pua pana" iliyobabataa, na hiyo hupatikana kwa Wabantu, ambao ni asilimia chache ya Waafrika, nadhani unaelewa Wabantu ni kina nani, mtu kama Nyerere anajulikana si Mbantu na wengine wengi Tanzania. Inaonesha wewe ni "zenj" na ukiwa Rwanda, Burundi au Congo utaitwa Mhutu haijalishi kabila yako ni nani, mradi tu unapuwa pana basi wewe ni mhutu. Ndio hao ambao hujulikana kama "zinji" Kiarabu.
U-mchache sana kieleimu ndio maana povu linakutoka, hapa umefika utapata tu darsa na litakuingia.
Kumbuka Waarabu hawakuja Afrika, Afrika ni kwao na lugha yao ndio inayotumika sana kuliko lugha yoyote katika Afrika na hiyo hiyo ndio unaipata katika Kiswahili kwa asilimia zaidi ya 60. Kumbuka.
Aliyekudanganya kuwa Waarabu walikuja Afrika kisha kufa lakini wewe bado hujafunguwa macho wala masikio wala sijui kama utayafunguwa kwa kuwa umefungwa kwenye ubongo kwa kushindiliwa na vitu visivyokuwepo leo vilivyokuwepo huvioni.

[h=1]Zanj[/h] From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Zanj (Arabic: زنج‎; "Land of the Blacks" or "Land of the Negroes"[SUP][1][/SUP]) was a name used by medieval Arab geographers to refer to both a certain portion primarly of the coast of Southeast Africa and its inhabitants, Bantu-speaking peoples called the Zanj.[SUP][2][/SUP] The seaboard is also the origin of the place-name "Zanzibar".

[/TABLE]
[h=2]Division of East Africa[/h] Geographers historically divided the coast of East Africa at large into several regions based on each region's respective inhabitants. In Somalia was Barbara, which was the land of the Eastern Baribah or Barbaroi (Berbers), as the ancestors of the Somalis were referred to by medieval Arab and ancient Greek geographers, respectively.[SUP][2][/SUP][SUP][3][/SUP][SUP][4][/SUP] In modern-day Ethiopia was al-Habash or Abyssinia,[SUP][5][/SUP] which was inhabited by the Habash or Abyssinians, who were the forebears of the Habesha.[SUP][6][/SUP]
Arab and Chinese sources referred to the general area south of the Abyssinian highlands and Barbara as Zanj, or the "country of the Blacks".[SUP][7][/SUP] Also transliterated as Zenj or Zinj, it was inhabited by Bantu-speaking peoples called the Zanj.[SUP][2][/SUP][SUP][8][/SUP][SUP][7][/SUP] The core area of Zanj occupation stretched from the territory south of present-day Mogadishu (although ethnic mogadhisans were not Zanj, but rather the inhabiting slaves),[SUP][9][/SUP] to Pemba Island in Tanzania. South of Pemba lay Sofala in modern Mozambique, the northern boundary of which may have been Pangani. Beyond Sofala was the obscure realm of Waq-Waq, also in Mozambique.[SUP][10][/SUP][SUP][11][/SUP] The tenth-century Arab historian and geographer Abu al-Hasan 'Alī al-Mas'ūdī describes Sofala as the furthest limit of Zanj settlement and mentions its king's title as Mfalme, a Bantu word.[SUP][2][/SUP]
[h=2]History of Zanj[/h] The Zanj traded extensively with Arabs, Persians and Indians, but according to some sources only locally since they possessed no ocean-going ships.[SUP][2][/SUP] According to other sources the heavily-Bantu Swahili peoples already had seafaring vessels with sailors and merchants trading with Arabia and Persia and as far east as India and China.[SUP][12][/SUP][SUP][13][/SUP][SUP][14][/SUP] Through this trade, some Arabs intermarried with local Bantu women, which eventually gave rise to the Swahili culture and language -- both Bantu in origin but significantly influenced by foreign elements (e.g. clothing, loan words, etc.).[SUP][15][/SUP]
Prominent settlements of the Zanj coast included Shungwaya (Bur Gao), as well as Malindi, Gedi, and Mombasa. By the late medieval period, the area included at least 37 substantial Swahili trading towns, many of them quite wealthy. However, these communities never consolidated into a single political entity (the "Zanj Empire" being a late nineteenth-century fiction).
The urban ruling and commercial classes of these Swahili settlements was occupied by Arab and Persian immigrants. The Bantu peoples inhabited the coastal regions, and were organized only as family groups.[SUP][2][/SUP] The term 'shenzi' used on the East African coast and derived from Swahili "zanji" referred in a derogatory way to anything associated with rural blacks. An example of this would be the colonial term a "shenzi" dog, referring to a native dog.
The Zanj were for centuries shipped as slaves by Arab traders to all the countries bordering the Indian Ocean. The Umayyad and Abbasid caliphs recruited many Zanj slaves as soldiers and, as early as 696 AD, we learn of slave revolts of the Zanj against their Arab masters in Iraq (see Zanj Rebellion). Ancient Chinese texts also mention ambassadors from Java presenting the Chinese emperor with two Seng Chi (Zanji) slaves as gifts, and Seng Chi slaves reaching China from the Hindu kingdom of Sri Vijaya in Java.[SUP][16][/SUP]
The term "Zanj" apparently fell out of use in the tenth century. However, after 1861, when the area controlled by the Arab Sultan of Zanzibar was forced by the British to split with the parent country of Oman, it was often referred to as Zanj.[SUP][citation needed][/SUP]. The sea off the south-eastern coast of Africa was known as the "Sea of Zanj" and included the Mascarene islands and Madagascar. During the anti-apartheid struggle it was proposed that South Africa should assume the name 'Azania' to reflect ancient Zanj.
[h=2]Arab views on the Zanj[/h] Arab descriptions of Zanj have been inconsistent.[SUP][16][/SUP][SUP][17][/SUP] A negative view is exemplified in the following passage from Kitab al-Bad' wah-tarikh, vol.4 by the medieval Arab writer Al-Muqaddasi:
"As for the Zanj, they are people of black color, flat noses, kinky hair, and little understanding or intelligence."
"We know that the Zanj (blacks) are the least intelligent and the least discerning of mankind, and the least capable of understanding the consequences of actions."-- Jahiz (d. 868 AD), Kitab al-Bukhala (The Book of Misers)
"Like the crow among mankind are the Zanj for they are the worst of men and the most vicious of creatures in character and temperament."Al Jahiz, Kitab al-Hayawan, vol. 2
However, the 9th-century Muslim author Al-Jahiz, an Afro-Arab and the grandson of a Zanj (Bantu)[SUP][2][/SUP][SUP][3][/SUP][SUP][8][/SUP] slave, disagreed.
"They say; If a Zanji and a Zanji women marry and their children remain after puberty in Iraq, they come to rule the roost thanks to their numbers, endurance, intelligence, and efficiency."Al-Jahiz also wrote a book entitled Risalat mufakharat al-Sudan 'ala al-bidan ("Treatise on the Superiority of Blacks over Whites"), in which he stated that Blacks:
"...have conquered the country of the Arabs as far as Mecca and have governed them. We defeated Dhu Nowas (Jewish King of Yemen) and killed all the Himyarite princes, but you, White people, have never conquered our country. Our people, the Zenghs (Negroes) revolted forty times in the Euphrates, driving the inhabitants from their homes and making Oballah a bath of blood.[SUP][18][/SUP]
"...Blacks are physically stronger than no matter what other people. A single one of them can lift stones of greater weight and carry burdens such as several Whites could not lift nor carry between them. [...] They are brave, strong, and generous as witness their nobility and general lack of wickedness..."In 1331, the Arabic-speaking Berber explorer Ibn Battuta visited the Kilwa Sultanate in the Land of Zanj, which was ruled by Sultan Hasan bin Sulayman's Yemeni dynasty.[SUP][19][/SUP] Battuta described the kingdom's Arab ruler as often making slave and booty raids on the local Zanj inhabitants, the latter of whom Battuta characterized as "jet-black in color, and with tattoo marks on their faces."[SUP][19][/SUP]
"Kilwa is one of the most beautiful and well-constructed towns in the world. The whole of it is elegantly built. The roofs are built with mangrove pole. There is very much rain. The people are engaged in a holy war, for their country lies beside the pagan Zanj. Their chief qualities are devotion and piety: they follow the Shafi'i sect. When I arrived, the Sultan was Abu al-Muzaffar Hasan surnamed Abu al-Mawahib [loosely translated, "The Giver of Gifts"]... on account of his numerous charitable gifts. He frequently makes raids into the Zanj country [neighboring mainland], attacks them and carries off booty, of which he reserves a fifth, using it in the manner prescribed by the Koran [Qur'an]."[SUP][19][/SUP][h=1]Zanj[/h] From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Unaijuwa Tanzania wakati wa Nyerere au unahadithiwa tu?
Nicho
Babaako alikuhadithia alivyofanya ukapatikana wewe?
Au hukumwamini babaako?
Mama je alisemaje?
-Kwani akinihadithia inakuuma nini?Mama alijisikiaje? kwani unajua ktk niliyoyasema unajua baba alichagua option gani?Mbona unahitimisha usichokijua?Huo ndio ujuaji wenu wa kila kila mahali unaowaponza na kuwaacha miserable.
Ni vizuri ukiweka bayana hapa Jf kama vile ulivyoleta mfano wa baba na mama katika mchango wako ambao haukuhitaji hadithi ya kifamilia.
Nimehitimisha nini mkuu? Hitimisho lipi hilo uliloliona wewe?
Hiyo nyekundu, nafikiri inakugusa na wewe pia.
Unaona Nicholas, unapotoka nje ya hoja, unaanza kujadili watu na kutaka kuugeuza mjadala uhusu "mimi,wewe,babako, mamako, ninyi, ujuaji wenu, unawaponza, mnakuwa miserable"
Unaona utamu huo? Unaona unauelekeza wapi mjadala?
Hatuhitaji kwenda huko, Mkuu.
Nikupe somo tuu na maswali yako ya (NDIYO/SIYO )kama ya Kinana mikutanoni.Kuhadithia kunaweza nifikisha kujua km hadithi ni ya kweli na imeelezewa kwa usahihi kabisa....
Halafu wewe kimeo....kuhadithia ndio ushahidi aliokuwa akiutoa Mohamedi Said ktk Uongo na uchochezi wake.Na nyie mkakiri kuwa laihadithia na wazee wake...Sasa sijui unataka sema nini hapa?
Mara nyingi Mkuu huwa tunakubaliana mambo mengi lakini kwa hili kwa heshima kubwa kabisa sina budi kutokukubalia hili....
Mimi napendekeza turudishe Tanganyika ili liendane na lile ziwa Tanganyika.
Mara nyingi Mkuu huwa tunakubaliana mambo mengi lakini kwa hili kwa heshima kubwa kabisa sina budi kutokukubalia hili
Hiki(Tanganyika) ni kimojawapo ya mambo makuu yanayonifanya kukataa kutumia tena jina La Tanganyika. Tanganyika limekaa katika mtindo wa kutugawa...umeona mwenye unasema linalandana na ziwa Tanganyika...hiyo maaana yake nini...
Zipo nyingi faida za kuwaendelea kutumia jina la Tanzania.
Hoja zimekushinda unanivaa mimi? wewe ni peusi?
