That's the one. A lot of churches were destroyed too. The Abyssinians wanted to take over Oromo and Somali lands, they wanted to impose Christianity on the whole region (they killed a lot of Muslims in this campaign) the Muslims united to take them down. It's said that Turks provided support too.

Whats the name of the war? The one with Ahmed Gurey?

There were lots of wars between muslims and Christians with imam Gurey but remember that the imam was fighting as a Muslim not as a Somali or anything. there were lots of muslim habasha fighting with him just like there were arabs but somalis made up the bulk of his army

Imam Gurey was not a Somali nationalist that's true. All Somalis were behind him but he had a lot of support from other Muslims in the region because he was fighting crusaders who wanted to colonize the region. Basically to prevent today's Ethiopia (Christians ruling everyones ancestral lands with the support of foreigners) from existing.
