Ahmad ibn Ibrahim al-Ghazi, Somalian general (b. 1507)

Ahmad ibn Ibrahim al-Ghazi (Somali: Axmed Ibraahim al-Qaasi or Axmed Gurey, Harari: አሕመድ ኢብራሂም አል-ጋዚ, Arabic: أحمد بن إبراهيم الغازي ; c. 1506 – 21 February 1543) was an imam and general of the Adal Sultanate. Imam Ahmad (nicknamed Gurey in Somali, Gura in Afar and Gragn in Amharic (ግራኝ Graññ), all meaning "the left-handed"), embarked on a conquest which brought three-quarters of the Ethiopian Empire under the power of the Muslim Sultanate of Adal during the Ethiopian-Adal War.
