Description

In Jawab al-Ifriqi - The Response of the African, Chanfi Ahmed explores the significant role played by West African scholars in the religious landscape of Mecca and Medina. This volume examines how these ulama, who moved to the Hejaz to escape European colonization, supported the early regime of King Ibn Sa'ud through teaching and the spread of Salafi-Wahhabi Islam. This research challenges the common assumption that the growth of Salafi-Wahhabi doctrine was solely the work of scholars from Najd. Instead, it reveals how scholars from diverse parts of the Muslim world, having already acquired these teachings, were instrumental in spreading the doctrine both within Saudi Arabia and internationally after 1926. This book provides a necessary perspective on the global movement of religious knowledge and the influence of the African diaspora in the Arabian Peninsula.

Key Features

Written by Chanfi Ahmed, this book examines the historical impact of West African ulama in Mecca and Medina.

This Brill publication explores how African scholars helped spread Salafi-Wahhabi Islam during the early reign of King Ibn Sa'ud.

The text provides a counter-narrative to the idea that Salafi-Wahhabi doctrine was spread only by scholars from Najd.

This volume is part of the Islam in Africa series, specifically identified as volume 17.

The research details the religious activities and teaching roles of scholars who settled in Saudi Arabia after 1926.
