Thus, various scholars had attempted to change Nigerian society. Among them was Uthman bin Foduye, who lived from 1754-1817 and contributed toward changing Nigeria to a united society according to the dictates of the SharÊÑah. This is a historical-comparative research analysing the contribution of Uthman bin Foduye in changing Nigerian society from the perspective of Ibn Khaldun’s concept of ÑUmrÉn. The study relies on the books written by Uthman bin Foduye to understand the extent of his thought on societal change. Meanwhile, some key important academics in Nigeria were interviewed to supplement the documentary data to understand the real picture of Uthman bin Foduye’s contribution in Nigeria. The findings reveal that Uthman bin Foduye made evolutionary and revolutionary contributions. His evolutionaryMalaya contributions comprised peaceful teaching, preaching and writing. Uthman and his community resorted to revolutionary tactics due to the plot made by the rulersof of Hausaland to assassinate him and his followers. He succeeded in overthrowing their government and establishing his Islamic government known as the Sokoto Caliphate, in present-day, Northern part of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, which its impacts still exist to this day. Ibn Khaldun’s concept of ÑUmrÉn is relevant as both scholars shared the belief that corruption, injustice, imposing a heavy tax on the subjects, indulgence in a life of luxury and favouritism are among the negative factors responsible for the decline of states/societies and dynasties. Moreover, an Universityanalysis of Uthman’s writings reveals that Ibn Khaldun’s thought indeed influenced his societal change. iii ABSTRAK Nigeria adalah di antara negara yang mempunyai bilangan umat Islam teramai di Benua Afrika. Beberapa usaha untuk membawa perubahan telah dilakukan oleh toko-tokoh masyarakat, antaranya ialah Uthman bin Foduye sepanjang usianya dari tahun 1754 hingga 1817. Beliau berusaha membawa masyarakat Nigeria agar berusaha menjadi masyarakat maju yang bersatu dan mengikut syariat Islam. Kajian menggunakan metod historis dengan menganalisis dokumen perkembangan hidup tokoh serta sumbangannya. Temubual dengan para cendekiawan di Nigeria juga dilakukan untuk mendapatkan gambaran jelas tentang sumbangan tokoh di samping buku-buku karya tokoh dijadikan asas untuk memahami pemikiran beliau. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahawa Uthman bin Foduye membawa evolusi dan revolusi secara aman kepada masyarakatnya melalui bidang penulisan, pengajaran dan dakwah. UthmanMalaya dan masyarakatnya telah menggunakan taktik revolusi ekoran plot yang dibuat oleh raja-raja Hausaland untuk membunuh beliau dan pengikut-pengikutnya.of Beliau telah berjaya menumbangkan kerajaan Hausaland dan menubuhkan kerajaan Islam yang dikenali sebagai Sokoto Khalifah di bahagian utara Republik Persekutuan Nigeria, dan kesan pemerintahannya masih wujud hingga ke hari ini. Konsep ÑUmrÉn Ibn Khaldun dilihat relevan di mana tokoh ini meyakini bahawa rasuah, ketidakadilan, mengenakan cukai yang tinggi kepada orang awam, kehidupan yang mewah adalah di antara faktor-faktor negatif yang bertanggungiawab atas kejatuhan negara-negara, pertubuhan dan dinasti. Selain itu, analisisUniversity karya Uthman mendedahkan bahawa pemikiran Ibn Khaldun telah mempengaruhi perubahan yang dilakukan oleh beliau di Hausaland. iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENT In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

This trade fetches profits that outrival those of all other commodities.”1 The high value that African Muslims have given to Arabic and ajami books is attributed to their high regard for learning and erudition. This is especially true with regard to religious and spiritual matters. It was for this reason that traders were attracted to these lands with the most rare Arabic books that reflected diverse opinions and wide authorship from all over the Muslim world. Because of this enthusiasm for erudition, there emerged in the bilad’s-sudan the highly honored vocation of paper manufacturing following in the footsteps of the literary communities of North Africa2.

  • Kingdom of Kano
    Kingdom of Kano Country Nigeria Kingdom Kano The Kingdom of Kano was a Hausa kingdom in the north of what is now Nigeria that dates back before 1000 AD, and lasted until the Fulani jihad in 1805. The kingdom was then replaced by the Kano Emirate, subject to the Sokoto Caliphate. The capital is now the modern city of Kano in Kano State.[1] Contents [hide] 1 Location 2 Early history 3 Rumfa dynasty 4 See also 5 References Location Kano lies to the north of the Jos Plateau, located in the Sudanian Savanna region that stretches across the south of the Sahel. The city lies near where the Kano and Challawa rivers flowing from the southwest converge to form the Hadejia River, which eventually flows into Lake Chad to the east. The climate is hot all year round. Rainfall is variable, ranging from 350mm to 1,300mm annually with the mean around 950mm, almost all falling during June–September period. Traditionally agriculture was based on lifting water to irrigate small parcels of land along river channels in the dry season, known as the Shadouf system. At the time when the kingdom was flourishing, tree cover would have been more extensive and the soil less degraded than it is today.[2] Early history Our knowledge of the early history of Kano comes largely from the Kano Chronicle, a compilation of oral tradition and some older documents composed in the nineteenth century, as well as more recently conducted archaeology. In the 7th century, Dala Hill, a hill in Kano, was the site of a community that engaged in iron- working.

  • 1 Introduction the Coming of Islam in Hausa Land
    ISSUES IN THE IMPACT OF ISLAM ON HAUSA LAND IN THE 21ST CENTURY Sabi’u Ibrahim Fago and Yusufu Bala Usman Abstract Societies emerge and develop at different periods of time. Many factors are responsible for their emergence and development. Factors such as economic, religious, cultural, geographical, political etc. are in the forefront. In Hausa land, religion particularly, Islam was responsible for some important developments in the land. This paper therefore, intends to give the historical background of the coming and spread of Islam in Hausa land and explore some of the significant impact it has on the lives of the populace and the relationship it fashioned between the Hausa people, Hausa land and other people around especially in the 21st century; the era of globalization, democracy and good governance among others. Introduction This paper will attempt to define Hausa land, its belief system and how Islam is introduced and its impact on the lives of the people. Hausa land is an area of West Africa consisted of large states of Kano, Katsina, Zaria, Daura, Kabi (Kebbi), Rano and Garun Gabas and some other smaller states situated in the present day Northern Nigeria and Niger Republic. The land is roughly bounded by a line moving from Azben southwards to the North-eastern boundry of Jos High lands, then westwards to the great bend of the River Kaduna and runs North-west to the valley of Gulbin Kabi and then North-eastwards to Azben (Smith 1987). This was the area in which the majority of the people spoke Hausa as their first and only language and the cultural and social traits often associated with the Hausa people predominated.
