The Letters of Ahmad Ibn Idris
Neo-Sufism Reconsidered
Apres une etude terminologique du neo-soufisme (differents mouvements bases sur le soufisme des XVIII-XIX e siecles), l'A. elabore le consensus et les criteres du neo-soufisme. Il examine si le mysticisme marocain de Ahmad b. Idrīs et de ses eleves et celui de Ahmad al-Tijjānī correspondent aux criteres elabores. Il montre que le terme est a employer avec precaution et qu'il est a restreindre aux organisations specifiques du soufisme dans des reg…

Enigmatic Saint: Ahmad Ibn Idris and the Idrisi Tradition
The enigmatic imam: The influence of ahmad ibn idris
Despite his importance, no substantial study has been devoted to the career of Abū 'l-'Abbās Ahmad b. Idrīs al-Hasanī al-'Arā'ishī al-Fāsī (d. 1837); most accounts of him appear by way of a preface to studies of his pupils. And yet through his teachings, pupils, and family, he was undoubtedly one of the key religious figures of the early 19th century Arab Muslim world. Indeed, his influence, direct and indirect, appears to have stretched from Nor…

A written law and a separate if not independent judiciary were among the most distinctive innovations brought by Islam to the Sudanic region. The history of the reception of thesharī'aand the institutions associated with it, of its modifications of the local customary law and of the changes wrought upon it by the same customary law may help to provide a framework for more general discussions of the process of islamization within Africa. The main …
Slavery and the Slave Trade in Dār Fūr
The institutions of slavery, slave raiding and the slave trade were fundamental in the rise and expansion of the Keira Sultanate of Dār Fūr. The development of a long-distance trade in slaves may be due to immigrants from the Nile, who probably provided the impetus to state formation. This process may be remembered in the ‘Wise Stranger’ traditions current in the area. The slave raid or ghazwa , penetrating into the Baḥr al-Ghazāl and what is now…
Hāshim and the Musabba'āt
The Musabba'āt played an important part in the history of the Kordofan/Dār Fūr region in the late seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. This article attempts to define who they were and to examine the careers of three generations of Musabba'āt sultans, in particular that of the grandson, their most famous sultan, Hashim b.
