[edit]

You read my mind-- I was thinking of writing an article on Lt. Gen. Jagama just the other day. --Varavour (talk) 05:58, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

152 chapter fiveAnother attempt at reconciliation was made, this time in Goba. Tensions ran similarly high during this meeting, where sober arguments had to yield to mutual insults. The characteristics assigned to Aliyeh Hajj Ibrāhīm, the son of the renowned ʿālim Hajj Ibrāhīm Tigri, may serve as an example of the prevailing atmosphere:You don’t know anything about religion. Your father was a learned man, but when he died, you buried his books in a box, not reading them. You did not learn. You came here from Shoa with a mäsob on your head.60The two parties were at this point on the verge of literally fighting each other, and as tensions rose, the meeting had to be aborted. Outnumbered by their opponents, the Salafis barely made their way back to Robe:They were picking up stones to throw at us, and they wanted to beat up Shaykh Jamāl and Shaykh Abū Bakr. Some elders and police came, and the situation cooled off . . . When we started to walk to the bus station, they followed us with stones in their hands. We couldn’t fight them; we were too few. We gathered around Shaykh Abū Bakr and protected him this way and took the bus back to Robe.61Inevitably, the conflict caught the attention of the local government, where the governor of Bale, General Jagama Kello, summoned the two parties to Goba.62 Listening to their arguments, the general decided to arrange a larger meeting, inviting all the ʿulamāʾ of Bale.The Meeting in Goba, 1972The meeting was held under the auspices of Fitawrari Bokra Gebre-Medhin, the next-in-rank to General Jagama Kello and with Qäññazmačč Azmach Adamsu representing the authorities of Goba district. Qäññazmačč Muhammad-Amīn Sheimo, the balabbat of the Walashe clan and Abba Jabal Tahiro from Dodola were chosen to act as arbitrators and as interpreters into Amharic.63 Expectations

I also noted that there might be different translations of the book or different versions. So I decided to read the entire book before making this edit. If anyone else wants to add on or dispute please reply Thanks. Dervish10 (talk) 15:08, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
