Samaale, also spelled Samali or Samale (Somali: Samaale) is traditionally considered to be the oldest common forefather of several major Somali clans and their respective sub-clans. His name is the source of the ethnonym Somali. He is the ancestor of 9 subclans

Irir 2. Gardheere 3. Yahaabur 4. Gariire 5. Gurre 6. Mayle 7. Maqarre 8. Xamarre 9. Xariire
Of the 4.5 major clans in Somalia, the Hawiye and Dir are Irir Samaal, the Raxanwayn are Sab, brother of Samaal, who are both sons of Hiil Abroone. The Darod is the son in law of Dir and therefore a relative of Samaal.

According to many farguryood (local manuscripts) and books including هجرة الجزيرة في فجر الاسلام ولواحوه by M. Ahmed Al Najdi and بغية الأمال في تاريخ الصومال by A. Sharif Aidarus, Samaale’s full lineage was the following - Osman bin Mohamed bin Hanbal bin Mahdi bin Ahmed bin Mohamed bin Aqeel bin Abi Talib bin Abdul Mutalib bin Hashim. He was believed to have arrived in the Gulf of Aden in modern day Yemen during the 8th century A.D as an army soldier on a Jihād campaign led by Ummayad and Abbasid rulers of Egypt which ended in his martydom that would see his descendents go on to populate the Horn of Africa.

An early mention of the Somali/Samaale dynasty beginning in the North around the 8th and 9th century at Zeila can be found in Chinese records. Somali and Chinese contact traces back all the way to the Tang Empire in the 8th century around the latter half of the Umayyad era.

The “Zhongli or Samathi” dynasty as it was called, ruled the Djibouti-Zeila-Berbera corridor and up to Mogadishu according to some sources, where Berbera was called Popali. They sent emissaries to the Chinese Court and gifted them with rare animal species found in the Horn of Africa.

As early as the eighth century, China had opened navigation to the Port of Zela. At that time, it was called Sanlan/Samlan Kingdom in the route recorded by Jia Dan (730-805), and it was regarded as the southernmost terminal port for Chinese sailing routes in the western Indian Ocean. Therefore, the centers of the Sammaran/Sammalan Kingdom is Zeira/Zeila and Mogadishu.

"In the fourth year of Dazhong Xiangfu (1011), there was another captain Julan from the Samalan Kingdom (Somali) and Captain Suhar from Oman, the captain of Mogadishu and the Egyptian envoy Dumiat came together landed in Guangzhou, and went to Kaifeng to pay their respects"
Somalis were also called Berbers simultaneously throughout the early middle ages, both before and after Islam. Famous authors who comment on Somali’s Berber ancestry and land include Imra’ul Qays (5th century AD), Ibn Khaldun (1330), Ibn Battuta (1350).

This also correlates with Far Western (Greek) and ancient Far Eastern records of the Land of Barbaria, the Gulf of Barbaria and the Sea of Barbaria, all found in mentions going back nearly 2500 years. With the same culture of trade, long mortality due to diet and environment, tribal war and piracy being the dominant features.

Islam was said to be present in Zeila during the lifetime of the Companions, with having a Mosque facing two qiblah in Zeila city — called Qiblatayn.

There are also several stories and myths surrounding the epynomy of Samali v. Samaale written by Somali and Arab scholars.

In the arabic narration above, “Somali” refers to a possessor of wealth, or ‘he who removed his brothers eye’, it is also the name of a valley at San’aa (northern Yemen). There is also a poem recited by Amde Seon of the 1400’s during a defeat in a skirmish with the Ifat Sultans.

In Somali tradition he is remembered as a good-doer of piety and faith (Sam-maalle) while others maintain it comes from the rearing of livestock (Soo-maal) though livestock rearing is done by many groups in East Africa who would not be referred to as Somalis.

Colonial remarks on interviewing Somalis
Regarding the Etymology of Somali
The Somali identity can today be counted as an ethnicity, the equivalent of an Oromo, Afar, Tigray and Amhara. It also however, encapsulates a nationality equivalent to an Ethiopian, Djiboutian and Eritrean. Just as Ethiopia contains various ethnicities, Somalia contains non Somali ethnicities such as minority Arabs, Indians and Bantus.

According to Luigi R. Bricchetti who explored the Somali country between 1889 and 1905, in his book “Dal Benadir: lettere illustrate alla Società antischiavista d’Italia” he quotes the following story of tradition;

La leggenda infatti concorda nell’attribuire l’origine di questo gruppo a un tal Samali, capo tribù arabo che, sbarcato coi suoi sulle coste dell’Oceano Indiano, guerreggiò colle tribù locali dei Suahili e dei Galla, le sottomise, ricacciando le vele intorno e formando cosi il primo nocciolo della nazione somala. Samali avrebbe avuto nove figli, da cui discendono tutte le numerose tribù degli Auija, dei Dir e dei Biomal. Il primogenito di Irrir, Auija , sarebbe il capostipite delle molte tribù del Sud, che collettivamente ne portano ancora il nome.

In fact, the legend agrees in attributing the origin of this group to a certain Samali, an Arab tribal chief who, landed with his own on the coasts of the Indian Ocean, fought with the local tribes of the Suahili and the Galla, subduing them and thus forming the first core of the Somali nation. Samali would have had nine children, from whom all the numerous tribes of the Auija, Dir and Biomal descend. Irrir’s eldest son, Auija, would be the progenitor of the many Southern tribes, which collectively still bear his name.

According to the British anthropologist and Somali Studies veteran Ioan M. Lewis, the traditions of descent from noble Arab families related to Muhammad embraced by most Somali clans are most probably figurative expressions of the importance of Islam in Somali society.

That’s correct. The original myth was that Samaale was a soldier in the army of al-as who was expelled from egypt for blinding his brother.
