The diversity of Xamaar

What type of Hawiye? Surely they’d be called by Hawiye rather than Reer Xamar?

They are both Hawiye and Reer Xamar, the same way others are Reer Xamar with roots from a specific Yemeni tribe for example. I can only speak for my own clan Sabdi which has a branch called Ibrahim who lived in Baraawe, Mogadishu etc for centuries and still do. They also live in iimey Ethiopia as Xeyle Ibrahim. Skip to 00:45. This elder is not really that knowledgeable but he touches briefly on them.

Yes, but they’re not cadcad. They’re Banaadiri Hawiyes. Gibil madow is anyone who is native Somali who is from Xamar. When I’m talking about cadcads, I’m talking about the ones who are of Asiatic origins that don’t belong to native Somali clans. A Gibil madow Hawiye is simply a Banadiri who is Hawiye.

This goes back to what @Banadiri Warrior and I stated earlier 🤣

Only thing diverse about xamar is the bombs that are dropped on it

blast bombs, time-delayed bombs, booby traps, command-initiated bombs, postal bombs, projected explosive devices, commercial explosives, homemade explosives, and improvised explosive weapons.

Cadcad isn't an identity, gibil madow means darkskin ie cushitic/Bantu origin , the reer samaale gibil madows all claim to hail from larger clans in the interior such as Hawiye, Darood, Garre, Cawrmale, Ajuran Gareen etc

Xamar is deffo the most diverse place ever in Somalia and the only places that compete is Merca or Barawa. Definitely more diverse than any backwater toolo you’re from.

We know. But when Somalis say ‘cadcad’ it’s a nickname used for Reer Xamaris who are of Asiatic origins. Not the ones that actually hail from Somali clans. As for Gibil madow, they’re native Somalis. Somali Bantus are called Madowweyne. Ethnic Somalis do not group themselves with Reer Madowweyne.

You missed the joke
Why does diversity matter?,when xamar is in a warzone state
It’s too early to be discussing about diversity and whatnot
When we reach Nairobi level then its okay.

Cadcad isn't even an identity, correct term is gibil cad, it's like saying mad madow. Are reer samaale's the only darkskins now? Gibil madow includes all people of darkskin origin. The bantus I'm talking about aren't part of jàreerweyn which is a political alliance. Infact none of the coastal bantus are part of jàreerweyn .
 
Not some of them are actually hawiye but they don’t know themselves
How can they not know? Somalis are obsessed with lineage? I can’t imagine someone from a major tribe not knowing what they are and joining a small group of assimilated immigrants.
