THREAD ๐Ÿงต: In the 16th century a collective of multiple Somali clans waged a holy war against Abyssinia, this was documented by a Arab writer. 1/17

Somaliland Separatists like @thebhlub are now trying discredit Somalis from Adal history. In this thread Iโ€™ll completely disassociate Adal from โ€œSomaliland heritageโ€ & Isaaqs being apart of the conquest of Abyssinia.

THREAD ๐Ÿงต: Debunking Habar Magaadle & proving thatโ€™s itโ€™s a mispelling of Habar MaqdiImage

2/17 Introduction: A Yemeni writer & chronicler documented Adalโ€™s conquest of Abyssinia, the book is called Futuh Al Habesh translating to as โ€œConquest of Abyssiniaโ€

By the 20th century, European travelerโ€™s discovered the Futuh Al Habesh manuscript, by the 21st century over 11 manuscripts were discovered. Below is chart of Futuh Al Habesh manuscripts stored in the their respective institutes like the British library & French National Libraries.Image

Somaliland separatists like @thebhlub often use this copy named Dar Al Kutub, this copy is coincidentally mispells Habar Maqdi due to a poor scribe who copied it from another manuscript.

Nevertheless the Dar Al Kutub copy is fraudulent and has no chain

European contemporary writers have already debunked and established that the 1812 Dar Al Kutub copy has no indication of how it arrived to Egypt.

Ironically the same book that @thebhlub references doesnโ€™t mention Habar Magaadle, but instead it mentions Habar Maqdi being a grouping of Yabaray & Bartirre, these two clans belong to the Absame Jidwaaq clan.

Talk about backfire ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’ฅImage

5/17 @bhlub proceeds to make up a complete lie on the spot & claim that Yabaray is a nickname of Habar Magaadle to make up for the fact that Magaadle is a mispelling of Habar Maqdi.

Yabaray being a nickname of Habar Magaadle is completely false as contemporary writers have already established that Yabaray is a Darood sub clan related to Absame Jidwaaq

If Yabaray was a nickname why would it be described as a Qabil?Image

6/17 @bhlub & many other separatists try to conflate that Habar Maqdi and Habar Magaadle are two separate entities, this is completely false.

Below Iโ€™ve displayed another manuscript which is the same exact page of the 1812 copy that mispells Habar Maqdi, read below.

Habar Maqdi & Habar Magaadle cannot be two separate entities, as magaadle is a mispelling of Habar Maqdi. But letโ€™s not stop here letโ€™s continue and disprove this.Image

13/17 An incident occurred between two Somali clans in which the Habar Maqdi plundred the Geri Koombe in Futuh Al habesh. The imam plundered and destroyed the cities of Habar Maqdi

Ironically enough I.M Lewis & Nezzraini write in their books that it was Habar Magaadle that plundered Geri koombe, this because they reference the fraudulent 1812 Dar Al kutub copy that has no chain, when in reality it was Habar Maqdi that plundered Geri Koombe.

The Italian Historian named Cesare Nerazzini has been exposed & criticised for his translation errors.

14/17 English Translations

The English translation of Futuh Al Habesh was translated by Paul lester stenhouse, this is the most reputable translation of Futuh Al Habesh, in which it is a translation of all manuscripts.

The translation confirms that Habar Maqdi is a grouping of Yabaray & Bartirre. moreover the English translation does not mention habar magaadleImage

15/17 @bhlub again completely lies on the spot and claims that one of the Futuh Al habesh manuscripts has a shopping list

@thebhlub claims that Bunduq means hazel nuts and Naqaniq means hot dogs, this completely false.

Arab dictionary reveals that Bunduq means bullets and Naqaaniq means battering ram which is used to take down gatesImage

THREAD ๐Ÿงต: How the Siad Barre government helped facilitate Djiboutiโ€™s independence from France, and in return got betrayed.

Djibouti was the last French African colony to achieve independence. Image
The French were among the earliest colonial powers to establish a foothold in the Horn of Africa.

In their efforts to spread Christianity, the French were notably proactive, in establishing several Christian missions in British Somaliland during the 19th century. These missions aimed to convert Somalis to Christianity, a task that involved both direct engagement and long-term efforts to influence local communities.

A particularly notable figure in this missionary endeavour was Alexis Mariano, who was the father of Michael Mariano, a prominent Somali politician who rose to prominence during independence and the era of 1960โ€“1969.Image
Image
Image
Image
The French were among the most brutal colonisers, their hatred for Muslims was deeply rooted in their colonial mindset.

During the French occupation of parts of the Middle East, a French general named Henri Gouraud infamously kicked the grave of Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi and declared, โ€œWe are back,โ€ a statement that symbolized the return of the Crusades.

For years, the popular belief has been that Siad Barreโ€™s regime was strictly secular and inherently opposed to Islam.

But is this narrative really accurate? In this thread, Iโ€™ll dive deep to challenge that assumption.

Colonial Resistance

During the Scramble for Africa, the British established a colonial administration in Northern Somalia.

Among their early secular policies was the prohibition of the Adhan (call to prayer) in Berbera.

In response, Sayid Mohamed Abdullah Hassan began publicly preaching against British secular policies in the region and condemned the consumption of Khat.

However, his efforts were met with hostility from the local population, who derogatorily referred to him as "Wadaad Waal" meaning "Mad Mullah."

Ali Jaama a notable poet from Berbera composed a scathing poem that ridiculed the Sayyid referring to him as โ€˜Mohamed the Lunaticโ€™.

This pejorative label โ€œMad Mullahโ€ or โ€œWadaad Waalโ€ was subsequently adopted by the British to disparage the Sayid. Despite this, Sayid Mohamed Abdullah Hassan went on to lead one of the longest colonial resistance in Africa, opposing British rule for over 20 years. Upon his death, however, his legacy was met with controversy, as Somalis looted his grave and destroyed his house.

An indicator that Sayid Mohammed Abdullah Hassan was unpopular was the fact that Mohamed Ali Dalmar, Siadโ€™s first political opponent, described Siad Barre as the second coming of the Sayyid.Image

The history of Somali Galbeed (Ogaden) is rich. Multiple Somali Islamic sultanates were formed, such as the Adal Sultanate, which flourished in trade, architecture, and antiquity.

The Adal Sultanate was one of the most technologically advanced states in Africa, utilizing cannons and firearms as early as the 1400s.

Itโ€™s also important to not forget that many great Somali historical figures originate from the Western Somali region, such as the likes of Imam Ahmed bin Ibrahim Al Ghazi, Saโ€™adin, Ahmed Girri Bin Hussein, Emir Nur, Garad Matan, the Walasma dynasty, Garad Mahfuz, Garad Wiil Waal, Sayid Mohamed Abdullah Hassan and many more great figures.

The western Somali region is also rich in archaeology, recent archaeological studies from Cambridge reveal that Somalis dominated the central Ethiopian highlands in trade and antiquity.Image
