New communities turned to Islam, and Muslim communities turned to new texts, practices and religious leaders. On the East African coast, the orders were both a vehicle for conversion to Islam and for reform of Islamic practice. The impact of Sufism on local communities is here traced geographically as a ripple reaching beyond the Swahili cultural zone southwards to Mozambique, Madagascar and Cape Town. Through an investigation of the texts, ritual practices and scholarly networks that went alongside Sufi expansion, this book places religious change in the western Indian Ocean within the wider framework of Islamic reform. 410 0$aIslam in Africa ;$vVolume 16. 606 $aSufism$zAfrica, Southern$xHistory 606 $aSufism$zMadagascar$xHistory 615 0$aSufism$xHistory. 615 0$aSufism$xHistory. 676 $a297.409679 700 $aBang$b Anne K.$0661767 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910812347703321 996 $aIslamic sufi networks in the western Indian Ocean (c. 1880-1940)$93952754 997 $aUNINA
