Produktbeschreibung
Nowadays, when we talk about the expansion of Islam or the famous Muslim kingdoms of medieval times, we usually refer to al-Andalus or the Middle East, but the importance of the Mohammedan kingdoms of sub-Saharan Africa for the crescent moon often goes unnoticed.

It will therefore give voice to the sub-Saharan world, in the form of an exposition of its past, which has most influenced its present, and how this Islam, far from replacing the pre-existing cultures, blended with them, giving rise to a peculiar way of living and practising this faith, which persists to this day, being the main distinguishing feature of these societies in the south of West Africa.
