`Ali ibn Da`ud
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
`Ali ibn Da`ud was the Emirs of Harar (1647 - 1671). He founded a new dynasty of rulers of the Ethiopian city of Harar. However according to Richard Pankhurst, during his reign the city's problems with the surrounding Oromos continued. In 1662 the Emir's troops met in battle of the Illamo Oromo, "which resulting in heavy casualties, doubtless on both sides," notes Pankhurst. "Those killed included the Amir's son Sabr ad-Din."[1]
He was succeeded by his son `Abd Allah I ibn `Ali.
