Battle of Zikr Amhara

After their father was defeated in 1409, Sabr ad-Din III and his brothers fled in Yemen to the Rasulid court at Ta‘izz where they were received by the Sultan al-Malik al-Nāṣir. It is probable that they joined their uncle there.^[3]

In 1412, Sabr ad-Din and his brothers came back to the Horn of Africa and landed in Siyara where they were joined by a number of their father's former followers to claim their once lost Kingdom, what followed was a series of hostilities and battles between the Christian Kingdom of Ethiopia and the emerging Adal Empire, among those conflicts is the Battle of Serjan and the Battle of Retwa but also the Battle of Adal and other small clashes and raids.^[3]

Tough outnumbered by the soldiers of the Christian state, they fought a successful battle. Scattering their enemies, they burned many houses and churches and took a large amount of booty in Gold and other valuables.^[4][5]
