Abū Bakr ibn Muḥammad (Arabic: أبو بكر بن محمد), reigned 1525–1526, was a sultan of the Sultanate of Adal in the Horn of Africa. The historian Richard Pankhurst credits Abu Bakr with founding the city of Harar,[1] which he made his military headquarters in 1520. He was of Harari background.[2]
Reign[edit]
Abu Bakr organized Somali troops, then attacked the popular leader of Adal emir Garad Abun Adashe and killed him subsequently moving the capital of Adal Sultanate to Harar city.[3] However, a power struggle with Imam Ahmad ibn Ibrahim al-Ghazi would ensue, who eventually defeated Abu Bakr and killed him. The Imam then made Abu Bakr's younger brother, Umar Din, the new sultan, although the latter only reigned as a puppet king.[4]
