Muddo haatan laga joogo 1400 sano ayaa Odeyga Direed dajiyay Xeerkii ugu horeeyay uuna ka soo kicitamay Waqooyi Galbeed iyagoo ay fidinayaan afarta Direed(Maahe, Madaluug,Madoobe iyo Curadka Madaxweyn) iyo adeerkood (Digaale) xeerkii Aji ayaay qabsadeen beelahii Sagaalka Samaale iyo Qowmiyadihii kale ee dalka ku dhaqnaa ama geesta Africa. 110 Qabiil ayaa qaatay xeerkii Direed ee xeer aji waana tan sababta ay dad badan u yidhahdaan odeyga Direed wuxuu dhalay cadad ah 114.
Waa dhab Samaale wuxuu bilaawgii ka koobnaa 9 qabiil oo maanta aynu u naqaano 9kii Samaale oo ay ka joogaan beelaha Sida Meeyle Kunshiile Uur Midig ama Xawaadle, Huuber, iyo sida Cawaramalah.
Hase ahaatee markii uu xeerka aji Soo baxay oo dadkii geeska Africa ku wada noola ay qaateen Xeerkii Direed ee Xeer Aji dhamaan dalka wixii ku noola wexey noqdaan Aji Dir oo 110 beelood oo dalka dagi jiray ayaa ku biiray qaatayna hab dhaqameedka iyo xeerkii cusbaa oo ku saleysanaa Xeer Ajiga. Magaca Umadii sameysmatayna waxaa uu noqday Aji ama Kuwii xeerka Samaa oo Markii danbe isku badalay Samaaleh ama kuwii lahaa xeer samaa-Leh. Beenaha la abuuray mudooyinkan danbe waxaa ka mida in la yiraahdo Samaale waxaa uu ka yimid Soomaal (Soo-maal)oo ku saleysan hasha soo-maal oo kale.
Waa been ee Samaaleh wuxuu ka yimid Dhaqan iyo Hide iyo Xeer uu keenay Dir Aji oo Dad fara badan qaateen iyaagoo u arkaya hab nolaleedkaa Direed mid sare oo Samoleh, Ka dib 9kii beelood ee ka koobnaa 110 qaateen Xeer ajigii waxaa ay umadii geeska Africa ku nooleed noqotay Aji ama kuwii qaatay Dhaqankii Samaada-lahaa ama Somali. Waana Sababtan dadku u arkaan in ay ka askumeen Dir xitaa Dir oon Dhalin dadkoo dhan hadana Somalida Maxayga ku hadla waxaad ku arkeysa in ay Dir saa u arkaan oo dhaqankooduna Dir aasaasay. Tusaale ahaan : Xeerka iyo Dhaqanka kaliya loogama dayan Dir ee xitaa abtirsiinyadooda sida:afarta Direed(Maahe, Madaluug,Madoobe iyo Curadka Madaxweyn) iyo adeerkood (Digaale) ayaa la raacay. Qabiilkasta oo Somaaliya ku nool waxaa uu raacaa "formula" habkii Direed ee Afarta iyo Adeerkood bal daras qabiilkaad doonto waa Afar iyo Adeere: 4 Absame iyo Adeerkood, 4 Habar Gidir iyo Adeerkood, Xawaadle 4 Cabdale iyo Adeerkood Samafale, 4 Habar Awal iyo Adeerkood Makaahil, 4ta iyo adeerku qabiil aan laheyn waa yaryahay

Wednesday, January 13, 2010Ancient Somali Dir Clans Constitution: Xeerkii iyo Xeerbeegti
Xeer Beegtida: Xeerka Dir Aji Ama Xeer Aji
Aragtida Direed
Dadku waa xayawan hadeysan xeer leheyn, waa sifidaa kala saarta habar dugaga iyo insaanka
Xeerbeegtida garta wexey u kala saaraan:Curad - gar horey loo xaliyay oo akhyaartu kasto iyo mid lama arag ah oo ay Ugub u yeeraan. Precedence or novel.
Xeer Alleh oo Suuru ay u yaqanaan Garta Illah oo Shareeco da ah Quran iyo Hadiith, Khabiirkuna loo yaqaan Fiqi ama xaakim diinta iyo shareecada kabiir ah. Gar Odey Ama Gar Xeer beegti waa kuwa xeerka aji ga yaqaan Xeer Somaliga -oo si miisaman u gar naqa- beeg waa miisan ama waxlax laqu qiyaso oo cabirta garta.
"weelasha lagu missaamo hadhuudka waatan dhahno waxa baa lagu beegaa. Heer kul beege- therometer garta beega ama misaama
Garsoore- kadibna garta sidey tahay u kala soora- siismo sida cuntata. Xaq soore ama mid Garta soora.
Garaad: waa kalmad ay beelahan hada madaxa qaaday ee xukun iyo darajada jecel sida daroodka ayaad ku arki . Laba dhulbahante ah oo isku disha anigu garaad baan ahay iyo garaad anaa kaa sareeya is dili jiray ayaan habeen dhan ka dhadhicin kari waajay macanaha Dirkii hore magacaan u lahaa.
Gar-aad wuxuu ahaa beelo markey is qabtan ninka garta u aadi jiray kalana saari jiray beeshisa iyo ta kale. Shaqo culus oo laga kala cararo ayay aheyd waayo gar-aadah Direed in uu Garta si sax ah u sooro oo hadii laga leyahay iyo hadii kaleba runt ka hadla.
Waatii Dirkii hore oran jireen Gar-waaqso kas garta Alleh.
Garta Alleh iyo Garta Odey ama Sida Madoobe Dir dhahaan Xeer Alleh iyo Xeer Oday. Waa kala saarida shareecad Ilaahey ee Quranka iyo Samaha aan ka dhaxalnay abkii hore, waa xeerka ajiye.
Barax- waa marka leysku milo ama dhafo Garta Alleh ( Shareecada iyo Quraanka) iyo Xeerkii hore Garta Odeyga. Suulux ( Sulxin) ayay Fiqiyadu ama imaamada isku dayi jiree oo ah in Xeerka Odayaasha iyo xeerka Alleh la is waafajiyo, oo xeer Somaliga la hoos keeno Islamka, lagana jaro wixii Islaama reebo intii la Barxin lahaa. Baraxa waa marka xeerka odeyga oo lid ku ah xeerka Alle la is dhinac eryo labadoo isla hor imanaya. Fiqiyada Suure ee muduug 1700 kii waxaa ay istacmali jireen Suluxin ama sulux oo ah qalooci xeer odeyga ilaa ka Alleh uu aqbalo, hadii oo ka hor imaneena daa oo hir gali.
1700-1800 intii u dhexeysay Fiqiyada Surre ee konfurta ayaa wexey ku caayi jireen dhaqanka Somalida Barax (Badhax) mid qasan oo ka kooban Shareeco iyo cadadii hore, ikuna dayi Jireen in ay nadiifiyaan, sida hada ay Maxakiimta iyo Wadaadada cusub ee Somalia.
Xeerka Aji Dir
Qarnigii 800 xeerka guud ee Dir ee somali oo dhan qadatay ee Xeer Aji la yirahdo ayaa Sameysmay. Beelaha weey badaleen ama gobol walba naqtiin iyo dib u habeen ayuu ku sameeyay Xeerka Aji.

Surra Dir xeer ayay sameeysteen oo dib loo habeyay 1700.
Xeerka Sameyntiisa
Inta badan odeyaal badan ayaa fariista xiliyada isbadallada dhacaan ama dagaalada oo wexey ka wada hadlaan arrimahan
Xeerka Guud
Xilo -Guurka
dhaqasho- reerka
Deegan
Xoolo
Maamuus Hospitality
Maslaxaada Guud ee bulshada maxay tahay sideena loo sharciyeeya, si uunsan nin walba salaada ugu tukan dhankuu doono.
Si ay Xeer Guud u dajiyaa, waxyaabah sameeya bulshada iyo dismaha bulshada, dhaqaanka. Xeerka Guud = Civil Law- Xeer guud regulates day to day living and guides all social interrelations.
Xeerka guud waa sharci saameeya bulsho weyn oo haga una tilmaama sida suuban ee loo wada noolado.
Xeer Gaar- waa marka qeyb yar ama gaar ah oo bulshada ka mida ay soo food saaran dhibatoying aan kuwa kale haysan oo odayashooda ay si gaar ah u sameystaan Xeer Gaar ah oo aysan bulshada inteeda kale lehey. Beelah Zaila ama Barbara markii ay ka sameysmeen ganacsato waaweyn oo noloshoodu ku dhisantahay ganacsi iyo mayacmushtar oo ay ka soo bexeen xoola dhaqatadii xeer gaar nidaamiya ganacsiga oo xeer xoolo dhaqatadu u sameeyan ayay sameeysteen. Sidoo kale Dirka Koonfurta oo beero lahan jirin markaa ay yimaadeen Jubbada hoose waxa ay sameysteen Xeer Gaar kuwood beeraleyda noqday.
Xissi - xeer aasaasi ah oo tarikhiyaan soo jireen ahaa oo an lagaba doodi karin, leyskuna raacsan yahay kor iyo hoos bulshadoo idil.
6) Dhiiga Criminal law

Magtu waa imisa, sideese tolku u geybsan doonaa, Jufo, jilib, reer iyo wixii la mida
Magta inta isla bixisa waa koox siyasadeed oo wada duula wadana aarsada, intee Diyada isla bixisa Diya- Paying Group.
Qofka dila yaa loo raacanayaa, oo jilibkee ka midyahay
Xeerka Guud wuxuu mar walba eegi jiray dhibaatooyinka soo noq noq da ee Somalidu isku qab qab sadaan, sida dhulka, markuu dhaco dil, boobka xoolaha, iyo aano, qoon, ilaa aflagaado.
Gar Dhaw- waa marka laba kooxood ama ruux oo is haysta xaalkooda xeer beegti la dhex keeno oo laga doodo oo loo gar naqo iyadoo la raadinayo eedeysane iyo mid laga gar daran yahay si loo xukumo. Geer beegti, garsoore, iyo qareen ayaa garta meel mariyaa.
Dhaqashada somalida waxa ay isku dayi jireen oo cado ka dhigeen Dumaal, si hadii nin dhinto walalkii ama ehelkii mid aad ugu dhaw loo dhiso gabadhuu ka tagay si reerkii ay caruurtey dhashay uga bixin oo nin shisheeyo oo laga baqayo inuu xumeeyo caruurta uu san dhalin asagu. Hadii nin gabadh ka dhimato oo ay caruur ka tagto, ninka waxaa loo dhisi jiray walaasheed oo caruurtii hore habaryar u ah oo leysleeyahay weey u tudhi doontaa oo waxaba ka garan meeyso Somalidu cadadan Xigsiin ayay dhih jireen
Godobtir waxaa loogu tala gali jiray hadii nin geeysto dil fool xun reerka laga dilay ninka xoolo iyo gabadh ka dhalatay reerka wax dilay ayaa laykugu dari jiray si dhiigu u joogsado
Qareen waa kalmad 1400 sano ka hor ay isticmaali jireen Garaadayasha ama xeerbegtida kuwa difaaca edysan ama la eedeyaha.
" Mahamaah: Misko la koro miskiin baa leh, " ayay somalidu tidhi, ayagoo u jeeda qofku hadii uu tabar daran yahay wax taageero ah na haysan yaa difaacaaya.
Ajidii hore waxa ay ogaadeen xaq daro fara badan in ay ka soo foofto kuwa bulshada ugu awood sareeya iyadoo dhibo fara badan gaarsiisa ka awooda badan leheyn. Dadka noocan ah ee daciifka ah yaa difaacaya ?
Dirka, konfurta waxa ay sheegan odeyga Direed wiilkiisa Maahe Dir in uu arinkaan ka gubtay, kadib markii uu arkay in mar walba ay dulmanayaasha yihiin kuwa ugu xooga yar Somalida. Waxaa uu ku jawaabay maadama Weyn, Abuurah iyo uumah ifka uu xaq soorah runta ah yahay oo uu si un ugu aaro ka daciifka ah ee uu isagu uunto.

Mahe Dir wuxuu wiilkiisi curad ka ahaa u baxshay Xiniftire- ama mid isku tax luujiyo inuu la dagaalamo xanuunka xaq darada la xiriira, Xinif-Tire (Xanuunkaa bi'iye) sida dadka waa weyn siiba Habraha madhaleyka, ruux kasta oon tabar iyo xeelad uu isku difaac leheyn, dadka laga tiro badan yahay, Kuwa safarka ah, agoonta, iyo kuwa maskaxda looga jiro ( Waalan ama Maraanka ah)
Waa Dhab: Misko la koro miskiin baa leh.
Maanta Soomaliya wexey la gubaneysaa oo la holceysaa kuwooda tabarta leh wexey bah dilaan oo gumeystaan kuwooda tabarta yar.
Maseyrka ka haysta iyo kaan heysan waxaa ka dhashay dad in ay lugaha isugu dhuftaan tol iyo qaraabo mid walba oo iswada xasda. Isu ogaleen nimacada Illahey ee cidwalba deeqda.

Gabeygii Ismaaciil Xayd Aflow: Xeer wuxuu ula jeedaa beelah Suure ee Haud ilaa Qabri Dahare iyo Sheygoosh daga iyo Gadsan Dir oo iyaguna dagan xagaa:
Cabdi Dhariyo kolkaan Sheeikhash Cirigii eryaayey
Kolkii Cabuudwaaq iyo Xer iyo Gadsan la cantuugay
Ee inna Caruus iyo la dilay Calinkii Dunida
he continues how he punished this enemies Cali and Reer Haruun and Reer Dalal. Read the entire Gabey at the botton of that page following the link below.http://doollo.com/mainpage/Maqaalada/dhurwaale.htm

The Suure Dir also created one of the first organizations to advocate for Dir interests which was the Dir Youth Association 1953 and the earliest political organization created for Dir interests was the “Associzione Gioventu Dir” 1948 and was claimed by the Somali conference as a member.
The Suurre Dir always insisted on the use of the name of Dir and always named any political movements they created as Dir movements, they used the name Dir themselves and sincerly believed that the Dir should unite under banner of Dir name and a common league or party that was named Dir.
Under the guidence of Associzione Gioventu Dir and the Dir Youth Association emerged Honorable Maxammed Cabdi Nuur Juuje.
The Biimaal Dir of Merka and Banadir also created several political movements and were very active। The following Dir parties existed in the early 1950s competing in the Southern Capital Mogadisho। A strong centralized rule of Dir elders, like the Sultan Awad Mohammed of the Surre, and the late Sultan Hussien Guurey, existed in Iskuraran District of Mogodisho, in the early 1940s.

Dear Brothers
I would love to thank you first for the wonderful forum. We need someone to promote and rise our awareness about the illustrious Dir clan.
The orgin of the Suure name
Let me add an old story about the orgin of the Suure name. As we all know by now Suure was the youngest son of Mahe Dir and he was the last one born to Mahe Dir shortly before he passed away, may Allah bless his soul.
It was said by the Dir of old, Mahe Dir one day looked at his youngest son and named him “Suure” which means in old Somali the “Wise one” or literally one who was very intelligent. Know unfortunately, this word is extinct and obsolete in modern Somali,but Suure meant “Intelligent”, Wise as in Somali we use today:
“Kibir iyo Suure badanaa”, which literally means one is full of pride and intelligency. Also the name “suure” is used in the Somali phrase:
“Maskax iyo Suure badne”
“Suurto Gal maaha”
“Waa Suuro gal ama waa aqli gal”
Therefore, in the old Somali spoken by the Dir Suure use to mean intelligent one or one who is wise. Now, this is why the Dir elders of Mudug used to say, “Suure” meant the wise one and it is the nick name given to the last born of Mahe Dir.
SHORT HISTORY OF THE SOMALI DIR CLAN BY WARSAME
Mansha Allah!
Maansha Allah! Bravo! Bravo!
This is very interesting and your wonderful analysis is mind boggling.
Honestly, I have never asked or even pondered about what the heck “Suure” meant. Isn’t it a bitch, the Suure whether Qubeys or Abdaalle are obsessed with the name Dir, but yet no one ever pondered or told us what Suure meant.
I think the sad thing about the Suure of Mudug region is they forgot their own name, Suure.
Why is it that no one uses the Suure name? Why are we so obsessed with Dir, Dir, Dir and more Dir.
Don’t misunderstand me, I quite frankly love my “Dirness”,but why is it we dont even know out own Suure name and its history?
I think it is a damn shame and disgusting the Suure do not use their wonderful name. Everybody in Somali will tell you they know Qubeys, fiqi muhumad, fiqi walaal, agoon, fiqi yahye, nacadoor, dabac,ahmed farah, Etc. But the name Suure is rarely heard.
I can tell you what Dir means and we all heard that ten thousand times. That freakin Dir means:
1)the ancestor “fir” ama “ab” ama Farac.
2) we heard Dir means “Dhiiri” boldness, Dirir “Worrior”.
3)Dir means “genetically related to” like when somalis said, “neefkan Dirkiisu wuxuu ka soo jeedaa”
4)Dir also means “people”, “race” or as in old poetry Dir meant People or man.
But I have never heard anybody explain Suure and its meaning and I love your wonderful insight.
It is extremely neat, fantastic and brillent periodly.
You are wise my brother and you, yourself must be some type of a Suure”wise one”, Genius, intelligent, and insightful.
