this book is biographies from the 9th hijri century. in this book a shafi scholar mentions multiple zayla'is. but there is a nisba called zayla'i in the arabian peninsular which gets confusing. anyway the book records figures
the al makdi nisba? i think its somali. المكدي الزيلعي
أَحْمد بن أبي بكر أَبُو الْعَبَّاس المكدي الزَّيْلَعِيّ الْعَالم الْفَقِيه. / تفقه بالشهاب أَحْمد بن أبي بكر النَّاشِرِيّ وبرع فِي الْفَرَائِض والحساب. مَاتَ فِي سنة سِتّ أَو سبع وَثَلَاثِينَ. ذكره الْعَفِيف.
Ahmad ibn Abi Bakr, Abu al-‘Abbas al-Makdi al-Zayla‘i, was a scholar and jurist. He studied jurisprudence under Shihab Ahmad ibn Abi Bakr al-Nashiri and excelled in the fields of faraa’iḍ (الفرائض) and hisaab (الحساب). He died in the year thirty-six or thirty-seven. He was mentioned by al-‘Afif.

about the book:
"The Radiant Light for the People of the Ninth Century" is a historical book written by Shams al-Din al-Sakhawi. It is the most comprehensive source in the history of the Islamic medieval period, containing a total of 11,699 biographies. It includes biographies of scholars, judges, narrators, writers, poets, caliphs, kings, and ministers from Egypt, Syria, Hijaz, Yemen, Rome, India, both from the East and the West, covering both men and women who passed away during this era, or who lived into the tenth century. In each biography, al-Sakhawi recorded their memorized works, teachers, writings, personal details, birth, and death. The eleventh part of the book is dedicated to surnames, and the twelfth part to women. His contemporaries criticized him, including Jalal al-Din al-Suyuti, who wrote a book in criticism of him called Al-Kawi fi Tarikh al-Sakhawi. However, this does not diminish the value of the book, as it is unparalleled in its field.
