The Ajuran state was a fifteenth-century polity of mixed Arab and Hawiya origin that expanded inland along the lower Webe Shebele. It controlled the immediate hinterland of Mogadishu and maintained amicable relations with the city, particularly during the sixteenth-century Muzaffar dynasty.

Le récit
The Ajuran formed a fairly strong state in the Somali region during the fifteenth century. The passage describes them as being of mixed Arab and Hawiya origin, distinguishing their political formation from the city-state structure associated with Mogadishu. Their power developed farther south of the main Adal frontier and was connected to the lower valley of the Webe Shebele.
Ajuran expansion moved inland along the lower Webe Shebele and brought the immediate hinterland of Mogadishu under its control. Relations with Mogadishu were described as amicable, especially during the period when the so-called Muzaffar dynasty ruled the sultanate in the sixteenth century. This relationship linked an inland territorial power with one of the most active ports of the Benadir coast.
