Hussein Hasan

In response to this fighting Sultan Deria Hassan himself a member of the Rer Guled called for the regular shir or meeting of subclans where he would take council and advise on what decisions to make next for the Eidagale.

Sultan Deria ruled that blood payment or mag was sufficient for both parties to exchange at the shir with the Rer Guled losing six and the Abdi Bari six as well.

[1] Lix nin oo mankiyo shaalka iyo midhaha Guuleed ah Oo wada ma dhaafta ah raggii ugu maloongeeyey Inaan waliba maal ugu daraa waa masalo dhaafe Waligeed markaha looma culin magannu soocnaaye Waa waxaanay dhagahaygu maqal maanta ka horoowe Inaanaan cayuun soo madhayn mudhayo dhaadheer leh Haddaynu Reer Mataan nahay sidaa waydun maan garane Six men who are the buds, the shawl and the fruit (youth) of Guuleed Who together were the best, most excellent of men That I add wealth to that is beyond the pale We’ll never purify the vessel with blood compensation which we have separated off This is something my ears have never heard before today That we empty [our hands] of very tall camels If we are Reer Mataan you will follow my thinking Sultan Deria responded by sending Hussein away to Berbera and then resuming the shir.

[1] Hussein's famed horse Mangalool was the topic of poetry and envy across Somaliland and many notables would inquire about how they could obtain the steed both Somalis and British alike.

[3] Hussein would accompany Lord Delamere in 1893 on a lion hunting expedition in which a lioness nearly killed him and his horse Mangalool in a pursuit they narrowly escaped.
