Hadiya-Adal-Ethiopian wars and Halaba clan of Aw Abadir

[Young Popeye]

The Hadiya Emir of Hadiya kingdom (tributary state of adal) appealed to Adal for help against habasha aggression after his daughter was kidnapped and forced to convert to christianity and marry an ethiopian king. This would lead to a long tug of war between Adal and Ethiopia, each side causing the death of their leaders. Adal lost Mahfuz and Ethiopia lost Eskender and Na'od.

The kidnapped Hadiya princess would become Empress Eleni and an enemy to muslims. She was responsible for causing the death of Imam Ahmed after she was able to get word on his position in the battlefield to the Portuguese

Halaba people are a subclan of the Hadiya located in the south west part of Ethiopia who claim to be descendants of Aw Abadir. Where my sheekhals?? meet your relatives @AbdiJohnson @adaharari

 

[Prince Abubu]

So this was kidnapped, forced to marry some midget injirle, forced to convert to Christianity and instead of helping her people she helped the enemy? Yep, sounds about right.

Also Sheekhaal are Somalis, how are they related to an obscure Cushitic speaking group?

ya eleni probably had stockholm syndrome. halaba much like sheekhal claim to have lived in harar and descendants of arab sheikh abadir. halaba now are cushitic due to their intermarriage with sidama and same can be said happened to sheekhal somali. For example in Harar we consider sheekhal to be lost Harari not actual somalis. this is the result of assimilation by tribes

I suppose the old saying 'naagi qabil ma leh' holds true.

she might have been kidnaped as a kid

 

[Canuck]

Young Popeyes tried to beautify the story but the truth was her Muslim prince father was traitor that took the side of Abyssinia instead of Adal. He backstabbed Adal. When Abyssinia won , instead of rewarding him they forced to give yearly 1000 Muslim girl slaves from his kingdom. And the first girl was his daughter,
Very good lesson to any traitor and houseslave.

Indeed, traitors are useful idiots who are discarded the moment their usefulness ends.

Who can possibly trust someone who betrayed their own?

Go read the Futuh al Habasha, when the Imam asked them why they would give their daughters to infidels, they replied that if they didnt then they would get raided. These muslim kingdoms lived very close to the Ethiopian border hence they had no other choice unless Adal helped them. Eleni's father was a respected Sheikh who requested Adal's assistance and he could not have backstabbed adal because Hadiya was technically an autonomous kingdom which only gave tribute to Adal.

ya most of the people surrounding harargay have been robbed of their identity, they identify as oromo but arent

Interesting never read about this before

 

[adaharari]

Yes, they make up over half of the city, followed by amhara
Hararis are there too but we have moved to other cities too

Hadiya was never a tributary kingdom of adal until it was invaded. Hadiya has been aligned with Ethiopia for much time before adal even formed. Adal has been a tributary of Ethiopia for over 3/4 of its existence, so saying it had tributaries is laughable. Plus she wasn't kidnapped, her father gave her away to the king for marriage.

Do you mean Abyssinia? The Ethiopian Empire was only established 100-150 years ago as a result of European colonialism in Africa.

That doesn't even make sense since Ethiopia has been established since 2000bce. Ethiopia has been known as such internally since at least the 3rd century (many references). Abyssinia is the latinized form of habesha, and has only been used for outside notification. So yes I mean Ethiopia.

Ethiopia is the rearranged Greek word "Aethiopia" meaning burnt face and referred to the Nubians in present day Northern Sudan. Habeshas stole the name less than 150 years ago.

Abyssinia only encompassed the Northern Ethiopian regions, so to say that the Adal Sultanate was fighting Ethiopia would be wrong because 1. Ethiopia didn't exist (or it didn't refer to the half Arab mutt rape babies known as Habeshas), and 2. Adal was geographically located in Ethiopia too, so were they fighting themselves?
