Don’t go on amazon kindle app because when you search up somali you will find @Basra ’s collection of erotic novels.

This is true crow find out about it as exposed her.

I recommend just searching the vast webs. Reddit got subhistory threads that might be able to give you some assistance

The best book on the Walashma dynasty is a book written by the scholar Al Maqrizi in 1436 called الامام الاحبار من الأرض الحبشة الى ملوك الاسلام(The book of the true knowledge of the History of the Muslim Kings in Ethiopia), which includes a section on the geography of the Islamic kingdoms of al-Habasha, a section on the Zeila region (the heartland of the Walashma kingdom), and a third section detailing the history of the Walashma dynasty.

A century prior to al-Maqrizi, Ibn Khaldun mentioned the Walashma dynasty and the Islamic lands of al-Habasha in his "History of the World",

Ifat Kingdom is also a medieval kingdom between the 13th and 15 the century.
Read the history of Ifat kingdom in the following references:

Most of these books mention ifat kingdom, that's it.

I was going to suggest this one. I couldn't find a pdf online but from the excerpts that I have seen, it is surprisingly detailed.

Do you have it @Factz?

Yes. Here's some of the excerpts from the book talking about Adal and the drunk successor of Imam Nur Ibn Mujaahid.

So the drunk successor was an Ethiopian. Why am I not surprised?

Props to Jibril though. He died a mujahid like his father-in-law Nur.

Most historian don't lean towards them being somali. There's no reason i wouldn't want them to be but it's not what I've gathered

I don't think so. You know when ogadens moved to Jland, our ugaas was a guy named Ibrahim. He was maqabul. While cawliyahans, MZs and others had their own suldaans, he was the overall ugaas. his abrisi is similar to what james dahl posted. I didn't believe it at first until I saw that guys abtirsi as well.

maqaabul are old tribe, so it makes sense.

unless some new evidence comes to light, I am sticking to this.
