You wrote a whole lot of nothingYou are right brother. The karanle are the balaw of harar (bedouins of harar plataeu).
I was telling people the fact that balaw means bedouin is in ethiopian chronicles and that arab faqih uses those ethiopian chronicle scriptures-like terms such as balaw and awraai which means leader for garaad abuun.
The fact that ethiopians in the 10th century called an egyptian man a balaw shows it refers to bedouin nomadic life, not necessarily a tribe name like the eritrean balaw who only appear after the 13th century. Eritrean balaws literally appear in texts no earlier than the 1200s, which means the 10th century use of the term balaw in ethiopian chronicles for an egyptian muslim turned christian gives precedence to the notion it means bedouin rather than a specific tribe
Harla were likely settled farmers like some RX while Somalis were transhumant meaning they roam from place to place and pick up farming in certain seasons
