  • The 19Th Century Jihads in West Africa
    THE 19TH CENTURY JIHADS IN WEST AFRICA A Jihad is a holy defensive war waged by Muslim reformers against injustices in the society, aimed at protecting the wronged and oppressed people together with their property and at the same time, spreading, purifying and strengthening Islam. In the Nineteenth Century, West Africa saw a wave of Jihads; however, three were more profound: 1. The Jihads that broke out in Hausaland in 1804 under the leadership of Uthman Dan Fodio. These took place in Sokoto area; and thus came to be known as the Sokoto Jihads. 2. In 1818, another Jihad was conducted in Massina under the headship of Seku (Sehu) Ahmadu. These came to be known as the Massina Jihads. 3. In Futa–Jallon and Futa–toto, another Jihadist called Al-Hajj Umar carried out a Jihad in 1851. This was known as the Tokolor or Tijjan Jihad. All these Jihads were led by members of the Fulani Muslims and carried out by people of Fulani origin; as such, the Jihads came to be known as the Fulani Jihads. CAUSES OF THE 19TH CENTURY JIHAD MOVEMENTS IN WEST AFRICA. Question: Account for the outbreak of the 19th Century Jihad Movement in West Africa. Although the Nineteenth Century Jihads were religious movements, they had a mixture of political, economic and intellectual causes; and a number of factors accounted for their outbreak in West Africa. 1. The 19th Century Jihads aimed at spreading Islam to the people who had not been converted to it. There were areas which had not been touched by Islam such as Mossi, Nupe, Borgu and Adamawa.

  • West African Manuscripts in Arabic and African Languages and Digital Preservation
    West African Manuscripts in Arabic and African Languages and Digital Preservation Oxford Research Encyclopedia of African History West African Manuscripts in Arabic and African Languages and Digital Preservation Fallou Ngom Subject: Historical Preservation and Cultural Heritage, Intellectual History, West Africa Online Publication Date: Jun 2017 DOI: 10.1093/acrefore/9780190277734.013.123 Abstract and Keywords West African manuscripts are numerous and varied in forms and contents. There are thousands of them across West Africa. A significant portion of them are documents written in Arabic and Ajami (African languages written in Arabic script). They deal with both religious and nonreligious subjects. The development of these manuscript traditions dates back to the early days of Islam in West Africa, in the 11th century. In addition to these Arabic and Ajami manuscripts, there have been others written in indigenous scripts. These include those in the Vai script invented in Liberia; Tifinagh, the traditional writing system of the Amazigh (Berber) people; and the N’KO script invented in Guinea for Mande languages. While the writings in indigenous scripts are rare less numerous and widespread, they nonetheless constitute an important component of West Africa’s written heritage. Though the efforts devoted to the preservation of West African manuscripts are limited compared to other world regions, interest in preserving them has increased. Some of the initial preservation efforts of West African manuscripts are the collections of colonial officers. Academics later supplemented these collections. These efforts resulted in important print and digital repositories of West African manuscripts in Africa, Europe, and America. Until recently, most of the cataloguing and digital preservation efforts of West African manuscripts have focused on those written in Arabic.

    TRANSFORMATIVE SUBSTANCES, KNOWLEDGE AND POWER Affecting the Course of Events in a Gambian Mandinka Village Katri E. Matikainen Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Cand. Polit. Degree at The Department of Social Anthropology UNIVERSITY OF OSLO March 2007 2 3 Abstract The present thesis is based on a fieldwork that was conducted in a small Mandinka village in the West African republic of The Gambia. This thesis revolves around the Mandinka concept of booroo. Booroo is commonly translated as “medicine”, but the application of booroo is not confined to prevention and treatment of sickness. Booroo refers to diverse substances, objects and, on occasion to certain utterances: such as biomedicines, amulets and prayers which can be used in order to attain changes, for instance to cure sickness, find a spouse or achieve success. Even if the main focus of the thesis is on booroo, which does embrace notions of medicine, the focus is not exclusively on themes prevalent within medical anthropology. This study seeks an understanding of a local concept of power (semboo) through exploring practices related to the use of booroo. The thesis explores how people’s conceptions of power influence their use of booroo. It further investigates what renders booroo and practitioners of booroo powerful. The main part of the thesis discusses power as a transformative force inherent in the world and beings within it, and it also considers how power is perceived as working in social relations. This power may cause wanted and unwanted changes. People can gain knowledge (londoo) of how to manipulate this power, for instance by using booroo.
