You Lost the argument when you resorted to mindless insults. Good job
Somali clan lineage vary between 10-30+ generation, at the end of each clan family they claim they are descendants from the prophets family.

the whole thing can be explained by looking at it this way, when Islam came to our shores, we started to memorise the Quraan, but also our lineage. We gave muslim names to our children perhaps even the scholars that taught the diin. Hence why we have memorised names like Jeberti Darood that are clearly arabic names, but these were probably the names of our ancestors scholars who taught them the diin and our ancestors either adopted the name themselves or named their children these names.

If you look at southern clans, they became muslim later due to migration of northern clans, they have much shorter lineages, even some northern clans have short lineages, I think this depends on when they become muslim and started to memorise their lineages.

So why would I speculate on something like this ?

During the time of Ahmed gurey, the largest army and the one he dependent on the most among Somali was Marehan, it is no coincidence that Marehan also has the longest lineage among Somalis to this day.

I know many won't admit it but there are some who cannot count more than 10 generation even if they consult their elders, which suggest to me they were recently converted to Islam :lol:
The founder of darood is descendant of a Saudi tribe yes or no? Explain why Wikipedia is wrong
we are
