Somaliland was Christian before Islam and Jewish as well. The Marexaan clan chief mentioned in the Futuh also had a Christian Ethio-Semitic Christian name of Tewedros so further proof that SL was once heavily Christian.

No it wasnβt
I have a theory that desert like areas of Africa and the middle were more recpetive to island for various reasons where as the more jungle/farmland types of people are not as receptive to Islam, looks at North Africa, northern Sudan, upper west Africa, Somali and afar people, are all usually arid peoples who fully embraced Islam, where as Southern Africa, lower west Africa, habseha and (some) oromo parts of Ethiopia, they resisted Islam more.

Because somalis were pretty much always militarily superior to their neighbors but too divided to actually wield that power.
If you look at somali history its basically us absolutely destroying anyone on the field but being so divided we stalemate every war.
Even in the war against the colonial invaders both the daarwish and geledi crippled eachother in a battle, the british and italians didn't actually do the major break to either.
Where did you see this? Because from what I read zaylaβ became popular during the 9th/10th century for being the hub for Islam in the horn
can you link where you saw this?
