what is even more funny is that his clan is named after their mother: Majeerteen - they just left of the 'habar'
habar majeerteen = warsangeli and his clan

it is Bah - majeerteen not habar

we have dhaqan and xeer unlike you irir idoor nd hutus,
we dont call women Habar even when we know they re old. We still call her gabar and when she gets too old we call them 'Islaan'

Habar in this context has nothing to do with women niyaho
in old Somali parlance it mans an alliance or collective
Like Somalis call Waraabe Dacawo and all other scavengers Habar Dugaag collectively

don't you guys use the term islaan for your clan elders i.e. islaan hebel
as far as I'm aware it is habar majeerteen, even your own darood called you that (maxamed cabdalle xasan) in his gabay

You call your traditional elders "Islaan" yet you are trying to talk about dhaqan. Majerteens are weird people.
Islaan Ciise Islaan Maxamed.
