Af-Somali Finance is a Somali-language platform dedicated to personal finance, halal investing, and building long-term wealth — all while staying rooted in our faith and culture.
Money is rarely taught in schools — and in the Somali community, it’s often not talked about at all.
Growing up, most of us never learned how to manage money, save, invest, or build wealth. Even though money affects every part of our lives, it became something unfamiliar — even uncomfortable — that many of us avoid.
That’s where Af-Somali Finance comes in. We’re here to bridge that gap — to make money make sense in our own language, with content rooted in our culture, values, and faith. Because financial freedom starts with financial knowledge — and everyone deserves access to that.
Whether you’re just getting started or already on your wealth-building journey, Af-Somali Finance is your trusted guide to achieving Xoriyad Dhaqaale (Financial Freedom).
Abdillahi Nur is the founder and host of Af-Somali Finance — a Somali entrepreneur on a mission to make financial literacy accessible to Somalis around the world.
He brings a strong professional background, having worked as an accountant and financial analyst for top U.S. Fortune 500 companies. With years of experience in corporate finance, Abdillahi understands both the technical and practical sides of managing money, investing wisely, and building wealth.
But beyond the numbers, Abdillahi is deeply passionate about empowering his community. After realizing how few financial resources were available in the Somali language — and how rarely these topics are openly discussed — he created Af-Somali Finance to change that.
Today, he’s focused on creating culturally relevant, faith-based tools and content that help Somalis everywhere gain the knowledge and confidence to grow, invest, and thrive financially.
We believe financial freedom is not just about money — it’s about dignity, opportunity, and using your wealth as a means to reach the ultimate goal: Jannah.
