For a people as religious as Somalis, I find it interesting that they built tombs for important characters.
Here are examples:
Sheikh Darood's Tomb:
Sheikh Isaaq's Tomb:
Dombiro's Tomb:
Sheikh Samaroon's Tomb:
Sheikh Issa's Tomb:
Harti's Tomb:
Aw-Barkhadle's Tomb:
You will also find other tombs, some less elaborate built on graves across Somaliweyn.
