The group participated in the 2006–2009 insurgency against Ethiopia and in January 2009 merged with the Asmara based wing of the Alliance for the Re-liberation of Somalia, led by Sheikh Hassan Dahir Aweys, the Ras Kamboni Brigade, led by Sheikh Hassan Abdullah Hersi al-Turki and Jabhatul Islamiya to form Hizbul Islam which became the second most powerful insurgent group (after al-Shabaab) in Somalia which continued fighting the TFG and AMISOM peacekeepers, after Ethiopian withdrawal. Little is known about the group.{{cite web|url=http://allafrica.com/stories/200902070006.html|title=Somalia: Islamists Want to Keep Fighting Against the New Government|publisher=Allafrica.com|accessdate=15 October 2014}}

This happened after Anole fighters invaded a village called Bulo Haji, while Ras Kamboni Brigade fighters arrived in Abdalla Birole and they clashed. The situation in the two villages was said to be tense, 4 people were killed and 7 injured during the fighting.{{cite web|url=http://allafrica.com/stories/200904210829.html|title=Somalia: Fighting Between Islamist Factions Kill Four People|publisher=Allafrica.com|accessdate=15 October 2014}}
