Imam, Mujahid or Sheikh Samaroon Said

I.M Lewis gives an invaluable reference to an Arabic Manuscript on the history of to the Gadabursi Somal. "This Chronicle opens", Lewis tells us, 'with an account of the wars of Imam 'Ali Si'id(1392), from whom the Gadabursi today trace their descent, and who is described as the only Muslim leader fighting on the western flank in the armies of Se'ad ad-Din, ruler of Zeila.'

The Cambridge History of Africa, Volume 3


This legend fought wars way before the Adal Wars or Conquest of Abyssinia in the 16th century. The only Muslim leader known to have fought in the western flank in the armies of Se'ad ad-Din.
