- Shams ad-Din ibn Muhammad
Shams ad-Din ibn Muhammad (reigned 1472 - 1487) was a sultan of Adal and a son of Muhammad ibn Badlay. [In recounting the genealogy of the Walashma dynasty, Sihab ad-Din Ahmad states in his "Futuh al-Habasa" that Muhammad ibn Badley had two sons, one of whom might be the Habib he mentions soon after; the text is confusing here and the translation ("Futuh al-Habasa: The conquest of Ethiopia", translated by Paul Lester Stenhouse with annotations by Richard Pankhurst [Hollywood: Tsehai, 2003] , p. 7) does not offer any elucidation.]
During Shams ad-Din's reign, an army of the Emperor of Ethiopia Eskender invaded Adal (around 1479-1480) and seized Dakkar, destroying houses and places of worship; however, on its return home the Adal forces ambushed the Ethiopian army and inflicted heavy casualties. As a result, no further expeditions were sent against Adal by the Ethiopians until the reign of Emperor Na'od. [Taddesse Tamrat, "Church and State in Ethiopia" (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1972), 295; Richard Pankhurst, "History of Ethiopian Towns" (Wiesbaden: Franz Steiner Verlag, 1982), p. 49.]
