Sacad ( Somali: Sacad Saciid) is a Somali clan that is part of the Habar Gedir of the Hawiye clan.[1]

The Sacad have always played an important role in Somali history. They have contributed greatly to the foundation of the Somali state and played a greater role in Somalis self-determination to nationhood and well as early stages of Somali nationalism. Both the first prime minister of Somalia, 1949-1960 and the chairman of the Somali Youth League, Abdullahi Issa and General Mohammed Farah Aidid, chairman of United Somali Congress who ousted the dictatorial regime of Siad Barre in 1991, hailed from this clan.[2]
