They were literally pagans in the time of the futuh
Here in the futuh

The imam forces were capturing and killing them for straight 6 days (bro was a menace) View attachment 281230
The imam wasn't from them either, he wouldn't slaughter his own people.
Or are they 2 separated Balaws? View attachment 281232
But yeah harla are probably Somalis that were assimilated.
From this, they spoke somali and their own geological traditions says that they're of somali descent

Brother that page doesn’t state what you just said. The Futuh makes it clear that the imam’s tribe was Balaw and we see this mentioned again in the awsa chronicles as this balaw were the same ones that founded Awwsa Imamate. I posted this earlier. The correct copies of Futuh have the word Garanle. That explains why Arab Faqih would quote writing Karanle like the historian Berhanu mentioned. Arabic historian Layla Sabaq picked up on that better and mentioned Garanle in her “Mawsu” like the Somali Hanan Channel on Youtube who literally reads out the original Arabic text from that book at the end of her short video.
By the way guys let’s not worry about these online Ethiopian trolls too much. Crying online and lying by changing Wikipedia pages won’t help. Adal, Harar and it’s emirs from the 1st to the last were heavily studied. The credibility of these authors that collaborated together like Ahmed Sami is insane. Ewald Wagner who also worked with Ahmed Sami was one of 3 foreign authors in Ethiopia, alongside Cerulli & Paulitschke, Mekuria uses the work of all three, they produced an important monograph of nearly 1K published pages about Ahmed Gurey that is accepted in the capital state university!
