Location of Hargaya state in the middle ages

Hargaya (Harari: ሀርጋየ Härgayä) was a historical Muslim state in present-day eastern Ethiopia.[1][2] It was located east of the Awash River on the Harar plateau in Adal alongside Gidaya and Hubat states.[3][4][5] It neighbored other polities in the medieval era including Ifat, Fedis, Mora and Biqulzar.[6]

History

The people of Hargaya were reportedly a sub clan of the Harla people.[7][8] In the fourteenth century Hargaya elected Imam Salih to battle the forces of Abyssinian emperor Amda Seyon.[9]

During the Ethiopian-Adal war in the sixteenth century, the people of Hargaya fought in the army of Ahmed ibn Ibrahim al-Ghazi leader of Adal Sultanate.[10] Researcher Mahdi Gadid states Hargaya alongside Gidaya domains were primarily inhabited by the Harari people before being assimilated by the Oromo and Somali people.[11][12] In the later half of the sixteenth century Hargaya state would be ravaged by the Oromo invasions.[13][14]
