Sheppard examines the interaction between Islam and traditional African religions, as well as the influence of European colonialism on Islamic communities in Africa.The author draws on a wide range of primary sources, including Arabic and African historical texts, to provide a detailed and nuanced account of the complex history of Islam in Africa.
