Nur ibn Mujahid
Nur ibn Mujahid ibn ‘Ali ibn ‘Abdullah al Dhuhi Suha (Somali: Nuur ibn Muujahiid, Arabic: نور بن مجاهد المريحاني) (literally, "Light"; died 1567), of the Ahl Suhawyan division of the Marehan branch of the Somali Darod clan.〔''Encyclopaedia Africana: Dictionary of African Biography, Volume 1: Ethiopia and Ghana'', p. 118〕 Marrying the widow of Imam Ahmad ibn Ibrahim al-Ghazi (also known as Ahmed Gurey and Ahmad Gragn), he also succeeded Imam Ahmad as leader of the Muslim forces fighting Christian Ethiopia.〔R.Basset (editor), ''Histoire de la conquete de l’Abyssinie'' (''History of the Conquest of Abyssinia''), Paris, 1897–1901〕
==Biography==
Considered the patron saint of Harar, Mujahid was called the ''Sahib al-Fath at-Thani'', or "Master of the Second Conquest". When Imam Ahmad, who had led the Muslim conquest of the Ethiopian highlands, was killed in 1543, the Muslim forces fell back in confusion to Harar. Nur, the dead leader’s sister’s son, married Ahmad Gurey’firebrand widow, Bati del Wambara, and undertook to renew the fortunes of the Muslim city, which had been sacked in 1550. Promoted to Emir around 1550-51, he spent the next two years reorganizing his forces, and constructing the wall which still surrounds the city.〔Dr. E. Cerulli, ''Documenti arabi per la storia dell’Ethiopia,'' Memoria della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei, Vol. 4, No. 2, Rome, 1931〕
In 1554-55, Nur departed on a Jihad, or Holy War, in the eastern Ethiopian lowlands of Bale, and Hadiya. In 1559, he invaded Fatagar, where he fought against the Ethiopian emperor Galawdewos, and killed him in battle. Nur continued fighting for 12 years until, according to legend, at Gibe he said "Kaffa!", or "Enough!", and returned to Harar. Some believe the province is called Kaffa for this reason.
During Nur’s absence, Harar witnessed internal power struggles, and the unlucky city was disturbed by encroaching Oromo clans. It was at this time that the walls of Harar were built; tradition attributes them to Nur ibn Mujahid with the help of two chiefs, Ahu Abadir and Ahu 'Ali. By 1567, repeated Oromo raids had brought famine to the city. Nur left the city for three months on a punitive raid against the invaders. On his return he found an epidemic afflicting Harar, and he himself died of typhus that year.〔Richard Pankhurst, ''The Ethiopian Borderlands'' (Trenton: Red Sea Press, 1997), p. 373〕
