The Suleiman horse ({{lang-so|farassuleiman}}) was a type of horse based in the Nugaal valley and owned by the Dhulbahante tribe according to some traditions.

Description

The Suleiman horse has been described as powerful and courageous.

{{Quote|text=Between Murreyhan and the country of the Ahl Oor Sungeli lie the great pasture ranges of the Dulbahanta, a level country, abounding in grass, water, and timber, and without a stone. Unlike their other brethren, Dhulbahante are a nation who fight chiefly on horseback their arms being 2 spears and a shield. Their horses are powerful and courageous; the breed descended, according to Somali tradition, from the stud of Suleiman, the son of David, and consequently highly valued. The Dulbahante, as far as I have seen them, are a fine martial race of men, second to none of the branches of Darrood either in conduct or appearance, and they are described as being courteous and hospitable to the stranger who visits them. They have generally two Sultans, or Garaads, the elder of whom, Mahomed Ali Harrin, governs the eastern limits of the province; whilst his colleague, Ali Garaad, (recently deceased) guards the N. W. frontier from the thieving Haber-tel- Jahleh in the neighbourhood of Kurrum and from the Agahdur family of Noh Amor.|source=[1]}}

The Hiin Faniin was a gift given by the poet Mad Mullah to the boqor of the Majeerteen Sultanate.[2] The Mad Mullah also wrote a poem detailing his love for Hiin Faniin.[3]
