There were Yemeni jews in Mogadishu until the 1970s when somalia joined the arab league in which they were pissed about and had to leave
Were there any ethnic somalis who were jews?

The only thing I know about these Yibir They used to take two lambs from us for every male Isaaq born, because we believed that we had killed their grandfather and that they were witches. If we did not give them the two lambs, we would be cursed They have been fooled for ages Even when my father was born, my grandfather gave them two sheep :damn: .

Historical evidence suggests there were once Somali Jewish and Christian communities in pre Islamic Somalia, judging by the ruins theyโ€™ve seen. Considering where we were located in the world, it shouldnโ€™t be surprising we did have such communities. We also used to have Yemeni Jews join their Yemeni kinsmen in our country until the mid twentieth century.

Except for yemeni jews there were no other "somali" jews in the era
Also what ruins? Somalis were never Christians.

Outside of Yibirs, there were some Yemeni Jews living in coastal towns

No, some idiots may claim Yibir are jews, but historic facts debunk this. Theere were jews in Somalia, manily Yemeni jews traders. They all gone after Yemeni jews left yemen for Israel. But Yibbirs are ethnic Somalis with no Jewish affiliation what so ever.

Most of them weren't ethnic Somalis probably Yemeni or Ethiopian refugees/immigrants or something. Ethnic Somali Jews are probably only like 50 throughout history.

No, yibir is related to the Rendiile word Iibere, Suugo Etymology isnโ€™t real. They were the pre-Islamic priests of the pre-Somali people.

they donโ€™t claim to be Jewish and are ethnically Somali.
