IT brought forward many rulers and elites that spread Sufi Islam with determination and bulilt countless mosques & monuments in india.

ignore the gibberish about abyssinia and slave rulers cuz that is nonsense this jew conjured up even disproven by his ethiopian colleague.
SKIP TO 43:20 where he is asked if they were xabashis and he responds by saying that his ethiopian collegue found somali clan names where the elite rulers ruled.
Following up on this most slaves were hasbeshas and some were bantus.
After somali king ahmed gurey and his somali army defeated abyssinia and conquered it.
Somalis enslaved thousands of habashis and shipped them to india.
in the book Slaves and Slavery in Muslim Africa: The servile estate

many of the slaves that somalis enslaved and shipped to theyre ruling sultanates in india were of bantu and xabashi origins.
So this discounts the nonsense of Slave elite ruling system crap.

Governor of the Island Abd alziz al maqdashawi! Abd alziz of mogadishu
He was also a somali ruled in ajuuran empire in somalia.
The Governor of this island, 'Abd al 'Aziz Almakdachaouy, welcomed me with respect, entertained me...

Speke’s captor went to seek his own portion of the spoil, when a Somal came up and asked in Hindostani, what business the Frank had in their country, and added that he would kill him if a Christian, but spare the life of a brother Moslem. The wounded man replied that he was going to Zanzibar, that he was still a Nazarene, and therefore that the work had better be done at once:—the savage laughed and passed on.
it could be a noteworthy one as somalis were reffered to as moors and the fact the north african berber moors conquered europe. Im guessing berber somalis conquered several parts of india.
