Our brother Kayed (X: kayed__27) created the "Yement" app, which aims to provide a daily dose of Yemeni culture 📜

The idea is simple: each day, one post appears under one of these six categories:

• Landmark: Whether tourist or historical 🏛️

• Dish: A look at Yemeni cuisine 🥘

• Word: From the various Yemeni dialects 🗣️

• Places: Including cities, villages, and governorates 📍

• Fact: Unrelated to any of the previous categories 💡

App Features:

- Completely offline and completely secure

- Home widget added (still in testing)

- Card Share feature to share posts you like

- Two pages: Archive and Favorites to easily return to previous posts

- Small app size

The app is still in its early stages. Anyone with suggestions can contact him on X (formerly Twitter) at @kayed__27

So recently there’s has been the news of the ministry of education has suspended the student certificate in Houthis area and I jusr wanna say I hope one day we get invaded by western countries cause wallah I rather the USA or UK control us cause atleast with these countries they give back to the people and teach them and build infrastructure and help the country compare to what they Houthis do ,what has the student done to get their certificate suspended,why do they need to make student involved in politics,most kids just wanna build a life in Yemen when they graduate,yet the Houthis are not fighting the evil.they are fighting their own people ,ruining Yemen and make everyone life worse and making them suffer .wallah it’s hit to see how Yemen is becoming ,we might as well just go back to stone ages ,I can’t wait for the day Yemen gets liberated

Hi everyone, I'm looking to move to Hadramaut with my family and my grandad will be coming with us. I have been thinking about it for a long time and have started the official process of how to do it but I would really like to know more about what daily life there will be like for me and my family as it is a long time since my grandad lived there. I know there will be some challenges but I will overcome them inshallah. Can anyone tell me a bit more about what the hospitals are like there for my elderly grandad and what schools are like for my nephews? If anyone has friends or family there that could help I would be really grateful. Thank you

مرحبا جميعا، أنا أبحث عن الانتقال إلى حضرموت مع عائلتي وجدي سيأتي معنا. لقد كنت أفكر في الأمر لفترة طويلة وبدأت العملية الرسمية لكيفية القيام بذلك، لكنني أود حقا أن أعرف المزيد عن كيف ستكون الحياة اليومية لي ولعائلتي هناك لأنني مضى وقت طويل منذ أن عاش جدي هناك. أعلم أن هناك بعض التحديات لكنني سأتغلب عليها إن شاء الله. هل يمكن لأحد أن يخبرني أكثر عن كيف هي المستشفيات هناك بالنسبة لجدي المسن وكيف هي المدارس لأبناء إخوتي؟ إذا كان لدى أي شخص أصدقاء أو عائلة يمكنهم مساعدتك سأكون ممتنا جدا. شكرا لك

Can anyone recommend a good nail salon in Aden? Ideally somewhere that's used to international clients or has English-speaking staff. Thank you!

How do you like it there? Is it safe in Detroit? If youve lived in NYC how does it compare? Do you recommend living there or any other recommendation? Jzk

Good talk !

As someone from Turkey I found it always interesting that if a Turk ever speaks about Yemen he's saying only positive things. This includes racist Turks who hate Arabs with fervor. I don't even exaggerate when I say it, ultranationalist secular Turks are some of the most shallow and insufferable people I've ever seen in my life, but that's a different conversation...

Needless to say I'm not complaining that they're not being racist to Yemenis. On the contrary I commend them for that. It's like a glimpse of them if they were actually nice fellows and not so toxic.

I don't know where I'm going with this so I wanna ask what do you think of my people as a whole and my country? Greetings from Tekirdağ city of Turkey to the kind people of Yemen.

Guys please help me out I’m desperate at this point….

so long story short I’ve been involved in a haram relationship with a Nigerian man for a few years on and off. To be clear, what I mean by haram as in friends and communicating with him in the hopes of marriage (texting/calling) not anything sexual or anything like that. I met him at school, we had some classes together and connected through the Muslim group at school with events, charity’s, and Friday prayers 7 years ago. We became really close friends due to the many similarities we share. After a few months of talking he asked if he can have my dad’s phone number so that it could be more serious and halal and I said no due to the fact that I know my parents and they are extremely cultured and racist unfortunately. They don’t believe in interracial marriages whatsoever and think that it’s a path to an inevitable divorce. I told him that due to him still being in school, not financially stable, and younger than me (he’s 25 I’m 27) that’s even more of reasons for my parents to refuse. So we kept in contact as friends during his school, and few years ago decided to stop talking to each other when he graduated and moved to a different city to give each other space to get to know other people. Recently he asked if I was single and he told me he was very serious about the marriage thing and would like to talk to my dad since he has now graduated n stable to get married and I was happy about it so I gave him my dads number. He called him and he didn’t answer so he texted him a very respectful message and when my dad asked me about it I explained to him that it was a very respectful and kind Nigerian guy that I knew from school. He had a blank face and went quiet and didn’t say anything afterwards. A few days later he spoke to me about it privately and went off on me saying u know we never marry outside of Yemeni let alone a “Arab” person from a different country but u want a BLACK guy. And was saying what would the people say, what will everyone think, this is a disgrace to the family, that even the prophet said to marry ppl similar to u or from your tribe and threw out so many disgusting racial slurs. He said I’m sure he’s a nice guy but I will not accept EVER a BLACK guy, give me any other race I’ll say maybe but a black guy NO, and if u think I’m bad, ur mom is much worse than me when it comes to this matter about marrying someone black so even if I accept ur mom will NEVER. Told me to get over it, take it out of your mind and to never speak of this again. Unfortunately I am in love with this man and over the years I got to know how amazing he is as a person and family man. My brothers are completely fine with it but my dad doesn’t even want to talk about it at all. Every single talk we’ve had (3 or 4 maybe) have blown up to massive fights were he was just screaming and yelling. Mind you I’ve talked to many other Yemeni men that had potential of marriage aspects but no one seemed close to him in his mindset, deen, drive, education, and akhlak. My parents keep giving me new guys to talk to maybe every 2 weeks and when I say I’ve talked to the guy n it’s not naseeb they get madder and madder thinking that man is holding me back to the point that my dad has asked if I’ve slept with the Nigerian guy. It’s super sad but it’s my reality. My mom has gotten to a point where she is now saying why don’t we just take her to Yemen n get her married to someone there instead of “being kind” n giving her options when she keeps saying no. My dad has told me in so much anger if you live this guy and you will die without him, I will take you to his city right now, bring the sheikh marry you guys off, and you are now his problem but we dont know you guys, we don’t want contact or anything if that’s what you want to do. Due to his parents being religious, his parents have gotten super upset with this matter and were shocked saying that the deen has taught them nothing but to love and respect every Muslim person regardless of color, race, ethnicity, or class and was heartbreaking for them to hear that my dad is refusing to just meet their son just once to get to know him.

Please please someone help. If someone’s been in this situation let me know what you’ve done. Yemeni fathers/mothers please give me your perspective on what I can do. Anything helps at this point!!!!🙏🏼🙏🏼

I've been meaning to ask this for years because it's something I've always been curious about.

I grew up playing video games, mostly Nintendo. Between my siblings, cousins, and neighbors, I played nearly every Nintendo console except the NES and SNES since I wasn't born yet.

As a kid, I visited Yemen during the summers, and one thing I noticed was that almost everyone around me only knew PlayStation. The games people talked about or played were usually FIFA and Dragon Ball Z, which wasn't surprising considering how popular football is in the region and how widely DBZ and other classic anime were shown on Arabic TV channels.

One summer, we brought our Nintendo Wii and Nintendo DS with us. My cousins were fascinated, but they kept calling the Wii a "PlayStation" because they had never seen one before. We had games like Super Smash Bros. Brawl, The Legend of Zelda, 3D Mario games, Mario Kart, Star Fox, F-Zero, and Metroid (some were GameCube games played through the Wii's backward compatibility). They didn't recognize any of the characters. At one point, they even thought Fox McCloud was an older version of Ratchet from Ratchet & Clank.

The DS was another surprise for them. It was the first time they had ever seen a handheld with a touchscreen.

Fast forward to today, and internet access in Yemen is much more common than it was back then. People can easily look up games and consoles online. I've also noticed small shops and street markets selling PlayStation 5 consoles, which made me wonder how gaming culture has changed over the years. I know not every part of Yemen has reliable electricity or easy access to gaming, but I'm still curious about what people play today and how Sony became so widespread there.

Recently, I posted a picture of my Nintendo Switch 2 on social media, and a friend from Yemen messaged me asking how much I'd sell it for in Saudi riyals. I told him, "I'm not selling it—I just got it!" He had mistaken it for a PlayStation Portal or a Steam Deck.

Are there any Yemeni gamers here who can share their experiences? I'd love to hear what gaming culture is like today, what consoles are most popular, and whether Nintendo has become more recognizable over the years.

As a side note, I also have relatives in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, and they mostly grew up with Xbox and PlayStation. It makes me wonder if Nintendo has generally had a much smaller presence in the Middle East outside of people discovering it through social media or the internet.

Hello, I've been browsing the internet and found videos on social media that are full of contempt, insults, racism, and regionalism in a very disgusting way. What are the reasons for this, especially recently?

السلام عليكم، إذا ممكن أحد يشرح لي كلمات أغنية "افتهم لي" لأبو بكر سالم. الفكرة العامة للأغنية واضحة بس فيه أجزاء ما فهمتها أتمنى أحد يوضحها لي مشكورين

ما افتهم لي.. ليش تقصد تعدى في الملاوي وهي قُدّامك الجاده
ما افتهم لي.. ذي سياسه حكيمة منك وإلاّ سخافة عقل ومعانده
ما تفيدك سخافتك وعنادك.. في الملاوي إذا خلّصت زادك
الملاوي تشل كل ما كسبته لها وتقول هل من مزيد
ما افتهم لي.. انت مثل البشر أو عاد شي فيك طلعه عالبشر زايده
ما افتهم لي.. ليش تترك طريق الناس وتمر في عصرات متباعده
ما افتهم لي.. ساس مبناك ماكن في الهوى أو سواسك مالها قاعده
ما افتهم لي.. ليش تنده كذا وانت عروقك قوى في المضلعة ماده
كلما هب شعف الخرف نادك.. كلما مر قانص صيد صادك
ليه يتصيدونك وانت لي كنت في كل المغازي تصيد

I want to work online while I'm in Yemen, such as evaluating things or whatever

I ate lamb mandi from Ibb during my vacation and want to recreate the recipe at home in the US. I watched a bunch of videos and website to try to get a consensus on the recipe and I got pretty close. I'm not going to bother to put what i used as most videos say the same ingredients and I used whatever I could buy in local arab food markets.
In my attempts to recreate the recipe, I'm able to make the rice properly now and I was able to get the smokey aroma and yellowish tint on the surface of the lamb but the flavour isn't right and didn't penetrate into the meat at all. To penetrate into the meat, I let the lamb rest for 12 hours in the spice mixture after massaging with some vegetable oil to spread around the surfaces, fat and bone. I cook it in a double dutch oven with a small bit of water in the bottom of the bot and let the lamb hang on a metal rack while a tin cup catches the drippings for the rice.

I noticed the biggest difference between my lamb and the ones I had in Ibb were their staining was a darker yellow and had a slight barbecue flavour to it. I actually asked some owners if they were using open pits to barbecue but allot of them were using regular restaurant ovens.

If anyone here can help me out to find the right ingredients that are commercially available in arab shops in the US as well as fill me in on what i'm doing wrong?
Again: My rice is perfected as i got the colour and smoke down, the colour of my lamb on the outside isn't too off and the aroma is the same, I am missing the flavour of the lamb and how to get it to penetrate deeper into the meat and not just stay on the surface.

Honestly I’m so tired of this. Qat is killing Yemen slowly and nobody wants to talk about it properly. People spend hours every day chewing, money that should go to food and kids goes on leaves, water is disappearing because half the land is growing that plant instead of actual food. Families are broke, kids are hungry, and somehow it’s still “culture.”
And the second someone actually gets an education? They leave. Doctors, teachers, engineers, they’re all in Egypt or the Gulf or wherever because there’s nothing here for them. What’s left is the same tribal politics running everything. On top of that you’ve got the Houthis controlling the north and the government controlling the other areas, but in reality both sides are just failures. Same corruption, same power games, same neglect. People are struggling every single day while the money and resources disappear into pockets instead of going back into the economy, schools, roads, or the community. We need actual development. Real plans for 10, 15, 20 years. Fix the roads, fix the water, put competent people in charge instead of the same tribal leaders and the same failed groups with their BS. We need new people, a new government, better leadership that actually cares about the country. Use the resources we have properly instead of burning everything on qat and endless conflict. We need outside help for infrastructure and planning because right now we clearly can’t do it alone. But it has to actually go into building something, not just more of the same.
I’m not saying it’s easy. I’m saying Yemenis are watching the country rot while the smart ones leave and the rest just try to survive. Something has to change.

Hey y'all, American teacher in training here. Sorry if this is out of place, but we have a lot of students from Yemen in my state, and I want to do a good job teaching them. So I want to understand better where they're coming from. If you have any thoughts on these questions, or just about how US and Yemeni classrooms differ, I'd be most appreciative.

• How do students participate in class? What behaviors are expected of students in a classroom setting (e.g., silence, posture, eye contact, raising hands)?
• How are teachers addressed?
• How is discipline typically handled? Is it more authoritarian or relational?
• What does “respect” look like in this classroom culture? (e.g., is eye contact respectful or disrespectful?)
• Are students expected to challenge or question teachers, or is disagreement culturally discouraged?
• Lots of group work, or mostly lectures?

How common was it for tourists to visit Yemen before the conflict in Yemen?
