Haqq ad-Din I (Arabic: هاك اد الدين) (flourished 1328) was a sultan of the Ifat Sultanate and the son of Nahwi b. Mansur b. Umar Walashma. According to I.M. Lewis, Emir Haqq "turned the sporadic and disjointed forays of his predecessors into a full-scale war of aggression, and apparently for the first time, couched his call to arms in the form of a religious war against the Abyssinian 'infidel'".^[1] According to the American University and Irving Kaplan, Haqq ad-Din was an ethnic Somali ruler.^[2]
