Description
While in exile in Gabon (1895–1902), Sheikh Ahmadu Bamba marked a historic moment with his poetry of resilience, pivotal to the cultural and religious transformation of the Murīds of Senegal. The qaṣāʾid (poems) included in this annotated edition reveal a unifying poetic purpose and exemplify Ṣūfī literary traditions in subject matter, form, and versification.
