Sabr ad-Din I

Sabr ad-Din I

Sabr ad-Din I (flourished 1332) was an amir of Ifat, the son of Nahwi bin Mansur bin Umar Walashma and younger brother of Haqq ad-Din I.

Sabr ad-Din rallied his fellow Muslims in a counteroffensive in early 1332 against the Ethiopians; however, the Emperor of Ethiopia Amda Seyon I defeated him in battle, then invaded a number of Muslim kingdoms, including Dawaro and Bale, which brought an end to the independent kingdoms of Hadiya, Fatagar, Dawaro, and Ifat. [J. Spencer Trimingham, "Islam in Ethiopia" (Oxford: Geoffrey Cumberlege for the University Press, 1952), p. 71.]

Sabr ad-Din was captured with his ally king Haydara of Dawaro, and who were imprisoned together. The Emperor Amda Seyon appointed as his successor his brother Jamal ad-Din I. [Taddesse Tamrat, "Church and State in Ethiopia" (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1972), p. 141.]
