Egal Shidad (Somali: Cigaal Shiidaad, Egal Shidad); is a folk character who was known as the cowardest man.[1]
From Somalia, Egal Shidad was known for his dislike of wild animals and his inability to take risks.[2][3] Like many Somali people, Shidad was a nomadic herder of camel and sheep. He traveled the land with his herd in search of water and pasture.[2] Though he was a coward, Shidad was also wise. This resulted into many miscellaneous adventures.[2]
Because of his stories Shidad has come to be known as a folk legend among the Somalis.[4]
