Abu Bakr Sabti (Somali: Abakar Sabti, also spelled Abakar Sabdi; Arabic: ابو بكر السبتي) are a Somali clan belonging to the larger Sabti sub-clan of the Murusade, which itself belongs to the larger Karanle branch of the Hawiye clan.[1] Its members live in Banaadir, Mudug, Galgaduud and Lower Shebelle.[2]

The Abu Bakr Sabti traditionally consists of nomadic pastoralists, coastal people, merchants and farmers. They primarily inhabit the central regions of Somalia, specifically in the Mudug and Galguduud regions, particularly concentrated in the El-Buur District.[3] The clan is considered to be both economically and politically affluent.[4]
