The Habar Makador have played a crucial role in the Adal Sultanate, a medieval Muslim state in the Horn of Africa. The Gadabursi, including the Habar Makador, were integral to the confederation that fought against the Ethiopian Empire, particularly during the Conquest of Abyssinia. This campaign was led by Imam Ahmed Gurey also known as Ahmad ibn Ibrahim al-Ghazi.[11]

The Futuh Al-Habasha describes their participation in several battles and their significant contributions to the military campaigns of Ahmed Gurey. They were among the first clans to join the battle and were known for their large armies and loyalty to Imam Ahmed Gurey.[12]
