The Isaaq family story - The biblical and Koranic Version

[Siciid85]

Turning our attention to the Isaaq, the second great ancestor of the Somali, we note that according to the legend the patriarch came from had-ramawt and first preached in Mecca, then travelled to Egypt and hence to Eritrea and Zayla in the northwest of Somalia. From there he moved to preaching and teaching to Harar, undertook the pilgrimage to Mecca, came back to somalia and went along the shore eastward to Mait where he converted the pagan people to Islam. Finally, he though of getting married. He first took as his wife Magaado, the daughter of Magaad. However, for a longtime she did not bear him any Child. So Isaaq married the ethiopian slave girl Hannifa. She bore four sons: Tol Jeclo, Jeclo, Sanbuuru and Ibraan. Then his first wife in turn gave birth to the twins Arab and Ismail, the latter nicknamed Garhajis. Legends mention a third wife of the patriarch with respect to the descendants living in Arabia. The important Isaaq clans of of Habar Awal and Habar Ayuub are either traced to Magaado or to the third wife. It is further noteworthy that the ancestors of Habar Habusheed, the four sons of the Ethiopian slave girl, are also known by the Semitic names' Ibraan(Eber?), Ibrahiim, Muusaa, and Ahmad. The Isaaq legend is obvisiouly patterned on the Biblical and Koranic notion of a wandering patriarch who piously fulfills his religious duties. It further builds on the Biblical genealogy of the Israelites and Ishmaelite tribes, with minor shift in the general ancestry from Abraham to Isaac and the major twist of attributing the offspring of Sarah to Hagar and vice versa. Indeed among the Isaaq, it is the childless woman Sarah- Magaado, the daughter of Magaad- who later becomes the mother of Ismaa'iil(Garhajis) and Arab. But before her it was the Ethiopian Slave mother, who, like Hagar gave birth to the sons of the patriarch. In the twins Ismaa'iil and Arab we may recognize the parrallel ancestors of the Ishmaelites and the Arabs, while the Semetic names of the numerous descendants of the slave woman would seem to associate these descendants to Eber, Abraham, and Moses. Furthermore the equivalent to Hagar bears the curious name Hannifa which properly has to be understood in the pre-Koranic Hebrew, Syriac and Ethiopian sense of ''unbeliever''. Hence we find.

Most Isxaaq are localized dir people, only a select few actually descend from Sh. Isxaaq. Most just jumped on the Isxaaq bandwagon.
