Contrary to popular belief, the fiqi shini are not the only southern ‘hawiye’ or hawiye affiliated group to live in somaliland. The xaaji saalax of the habar yunis are of gaaljecel descent. The xaaji AUN on his way to the hajj pilgrimage from the south, stopped by and married a local girl and founded a settlement called xaaji saalax. His descendents assimilated into the habar yunis over time. I have met some here in the UK! I stumbled across this video recent horumar wacan brethren!

Re: Xaaji saalax
Hundreds of Xaaji Saalax exist, but we are talking about the man from Togdheer buried in Xaaji Saalax HY village close to Duruqsi. That man was a HY Mullah and the son of Cali siciid.Seedyare wrote: Mon Dec 16, 2019 3:49 pmX.Playa wrote: Mon Dec 16, 2019 3:04 pmand who told you this fairy tale? , Xaaji Saalax Cali Siciid Garxajis , that is how immediate decent he is of Garxajis and one of the branches of the Cali Siciid clan.Mk777 wrote: Sun Dec 15, 2019 12:28 pm Greetings somalilanders![]()

Re: Xaaji saalax
I grew up with the cali siciid from 1999 to 2007 dadkan oo dhan wejiyadooda iyo magacooda oo saddexan waan garanaya , rag badanoo reer cigaal dheere , iyo reer amarre gidhi ah baa iiga muuqda.
Xitaa naanaysaha jufooyin kooda sidaas baan u xasuusta , Cali siciid ku waa aadan madoobaha HJ oo kale , waa qabiil kooban oo iswada yaqaan aadna isugu xidhan. Intan la noola kama maqal wax gaaljecel u gala , in kasta oo aan yaraa oo aanan waayeelkooda dhex geli jirin maadama aanu xidid ahayn.

The reason I say this is because this xaaji saalax as x Playa mentions made the pilgrimage to xajj a very very long time ago at a time when it is probable not all somalis converted. I have seen some in the Uk and they are aware of the historic connection
The only question is whether the xaaji saalax koonfur are of HY descent or whether it is the other way round

Re: Xaaji saalax
The most possible scenario is if branch of reer Cali siciid (HY) moved to hiiraan , and that's how they became part of your clan .
