Abun Adashe Explained
Garad Abun Ibn Adash[1] (Harari: አቦኝ ኣዲሽ) or Abogn ibn Adish[2] was a Harari Emir of the Adal Sultanate.[3] [4] [5] He was the de facto ruler of Adal reducing the Adal sultan to nominal leader. In this period Sultan Abu Bakr ibn Muhammad would move Adal's capital to Harar city after killing emir Abogn in order to regain influence in Adal.[6] [7] [8]
Reign
Garad Abogn ibn Adish ruled from 1518 to 1525 and led a campaign against the Walashma dynasty. Abogn campaigned against Sultan Abu Bakr ibn Muhammad; however he was decisively defeated at Harar his own base and Abu Bakr successfully invaded Harar with the assistance of Somali militias.[9] [10] [11] Imam Ahmed Al Ghazi served as an advisor and respected infantryman for Abogn against the Walashma forces.[12] [13] After his loss, Imam Ahmed avenged his sultan's death and killed Abu Bakr.[14]
