This handbook generates new insights that enrich our understanding
of the history of Islam in Africa and the diverse experiences and
expressions of the faith on the continent. The chapters in the
volume cover key themes that reflect the preoccupations and
realities of many African Muslims. They provide readers access to a
comprehensive treatment of the past and current traditions of
Muslims in Africa, offering insights on different forms of
Islamization that have taken place in several regions, local
responses to Islamization, Islam in colonial and post-colonial
Africa, and the varied forms of Jihad movements that have occurred
on the continent. The handbook provides updated knowledge on
various social, cultural, linguistic, political, artistic,
educational, and intellectual aspects of the encounter between
Islam and African societies reflected in the lived experiences of
African Muslims and the corpus of African Islamic texts.
