al-Shabab is a Sunni group affiliated with al-Qaeda.
Iran is a Shiite nation opposed to al-Qaeda.
This is not "payback" for the assassination of Soleimani. More likely, al-Shabab recognizes that Trump can't concentrate on more than one issue at the same time.

That's Kenyan base on Kenyan territory - al-Shabaab went across the border

Soleimani led the Al Quoz brigade which is Shia, and has nothing to do with with either Al Shabab or Al Quaida/ISIS, all of which are Sunni. In fact, Al Shabab would have no qualms in killing Soleimani themselves. You might want to read some background to understand the conflict.
