Ahmad ibn Ibrahim al-Ghazi
Along with the other constituent sub-clans of the Habr Magaadle confederation (including Garhajis, Habr Awal and Ayub), the Arap too took part in the conquest of Abyssinia under the Adal Sultanate. The Habar Magaadle are known for producing a historical figure known as "Ahmad Gurey bin Husain", who was the right-hand man of Ahmad ibn Ibrahim al-Ghazi.
