The Nigerian Muslim Legend who founded a Caliphate
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ต.ค. 2022
- For decades he clashed with an oppressive class of rulers and just so happened to found a new Caliphate state along the way in Africa. He was perhaps one of the most influential West African scholars in Islamic history. Some scholars said he was the Mujaddid of his time while there were others who said he was nothing but a disruptive nuisance. He was Usman dan Fodio.

As a muslim living in hausa land, I assure that this information is correct. Sheikh Danfodiyo was a blessing to us sent by Allah, his contribution to islam can be seen and felt all over modern day northern Nigeria, because to this day there are more 50 million muslims in northern nigeria alone who Allah has blessed with his deen as a result of Danfodiyo's call to Islam. May Allah bless the sheikh and the onepath network for making this amazing video.
Muslim's in Northern Nigeria are about 100 million, or upward...but not less than that.
Insha Allah ❤
ALLAHU AKBAR
Unfortunately your religious elites are doing nothing to promote this man instead enemy of Islam have negative info about him. How many of his books have you even read?
Amin.
Our great scholar
Greetings to our Nigerian brothers 😘 from Iraq.
God bless Iraq and its people! 💪🏾
I almost cried while listening to this video. My great grand father participated in several expeditions that made up that jihad one of the comanders from Kano. Mallam Dabo Yunusa, the Dabo of Dambazau, my great, great grand father was chief financier of that jihad. I thank you so much for telling us about the condensed version of our history. They're the major reason why Islam is practiced in Northern Nigeria morethan anywhere in bilad assudan. Thank you so much and may almighty Allah reward you abundantly.
If it wasnt for the tse tse fly killing horses, Hausaland had advanced weapons and horses due to contact with Middle East. Lots of nomads and tribes. They had advantages over rival kingdoms.
So you're proud that you're great great grandfather financed a jihad that killed and enslaved thousands upon thousands of people? That's sad.
@@Skonchin that's exactly what Sahara reporters told. I can't wait for my enemy, some one like you to rewrite my history. Ppl were killed enslaved, etc. That's what you were told on social media. Please tell me about your great grand father. You can't. You don't know him. Because he did nothing to influence the mind of the historians.
@@sararinsammai1769 actually I learned this from a professor of Muslim studies at Yale who’s been studying the influence of Arab-Islam in Africa for decades. And yes, if you believe that the 18th and 19th century sub-Saharan and East-African Jihads were justified, then you are my enemy. At least I’m willing to denounce what western Christians did in the Trans-Atlantic slave trade and acknowledge that it was terrible. Why can’t Muslims acknowledge Islam’s role in 1300 years of slavery and death Africa as well?
@@Skonchin make no mistake about that. We're enemies. It's already been stated in the quran.
As a Nigerian and a Muslim am so happy to hear you talk about my country ❤🇳🇬🇳🇬
I literally clicked on this video without hesitation because I saw Nigeria... Lol
I'm Nigerian and Persian we are one ummah remember that

DID YOU KNOW ALL THESE ISLAMIC LEADERS WERE INSPIRED BY IMAM HOSSAIN AND LADY ZAINAB. SO DO A VIDEO ON IMAM HOSSAIN
As a Ugandan muslim,am so excited to here this,we need to be learning this in school.
I was named after him, and I am a witness. May Allah raise us among the righteous and preserve us in goodness and submission to him.

Masha Allah, I am a Nigerian and I am ashamed to say that I do not know much about sheikh Usman danfodiyo. May Allah SWA have mercy on him.

Masha Allah. One northern Nigerian here. Seeing Nigeria, I quickly clicked on the video.
May Allah raise more good Muslims in Nigeria and the world. Amin
Thank you so much for bringing this incredible story to light.
Learning about Shehu as a child gave me so much pride in the history of my people, and shaped the person I am today. History is very important.
My brothers and sisters from nigeria let’s gather here and appreciate this. May Allah bless you all
As a student of islamic history, I am very happy to learn more about this great individual. I create animations for our history, and this video definitely got my interest, and I will dedicate a series for the sheikh and the sokoto khilafa inchaallah
Kindly share with me when you create that animation. It will help me greatly in my teaching.
Let not those who disbelieve think they will escape. Indeed, they will not cause failure [to Allah]. And prepare against them whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war by which you may terrify the enemy of Allah and your enemy and others besides them whom you do not know [but] whom Allah knows. And whatever you spend in the cause of Allah will be fully repaid to you, and you will not be wronged. Quran 8:59-60

Yes please. May Allah aid you
Please do share it when you create the animations. Jazakhallah khair
first Nigerian here 🇳🇬
As a Nigerian. Never had this knowledge. Secondary school( high school) did not teach us this. It’s quite sad. Alhamdulilah for this knowledge.
This is true. It is highly unfortunate that as Muslims we did not learn this important history in primary or secondary school!!! Our attitude towards religion needs to change as an Ummah!
Guy's am I dreaming. Am a Gambian and we have learnt about sheikh Usman Danfodio in Secondary school. But this video is another level
Alhamdulillah indeed.
This is truly amazing content from One Path Network! Love The Nigerian 🇳🇬 history & Muslims from Somalia 🇸🇴🇺🇸!

Turn To Truth , agreed brother and I can say it has happened to me. Anywhere in the whole world. This is one of the favors of Allah (s) for the ummah in the dunya.
The story of Usman Dan Fodio and his great contribution towards spread of Islam in Nigeria and West Africa at large is greatly under told. I’m glad to hear that his story is finally being told especially on this channel that I’ve been following for number of years. #ProudlyNigerian #ProudlyHausa
I agree. As a Nigerian Yoruba Muslim,all I know about him is from social studies in primary school. And it was not much.

As a Nigerian Muslim, and student of Educational Administration, and history, I learnt that Muslims started education in Nigeria 400 years before the arrival of the Europeans. And Dan Fodio is the most influential figure in the development of Islamic culture in the country. May Allaah bless him with Al-jannah
Jazakallahu Khairan one path for reviving the legacy of Sheikh Usman bin Fodio.He is a leader and also reformer.Nigeria is among the most populated Muslim countries with over 100million Muslim.🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
You are beauthiful my brother in islam
That just an amazing reminder that a single man effort can make amazing results even decade after him (even if he didn’t see it himself)
Yeah sure.
And that's why, we should never belittle a good deed, just as Islam has advised.
May Allah use us as good influences to the world
Amin
Simply Amazing, mashAllah. Love from Pakistan 🇵🇰❤️
I'm from Nigeria and my house is right there in Sokoto city. The city of Usman Dan Fodio. I live in NYC🇺🇲. May Allah reward Onepath and bless all Muslims ☪️ of this world
I’m very amazed by this content. I’m from northern Nigeria 🇳🇬 love you onepath network may Allah reword you 🤍
I think a series should be made on this great legend so more of us can know about the sincerity passion and love for the Deen of Allah, these legends had in them.
What a masterstroke by onepath choosing the history of Uthaman Dan fodio because it reflects the struggle of the modern muslims perfectly and therefore giving an example for the muslims to reflect and perhaps follow.
He sure was a reformer & reviver that has great legacy & knowledge that still resonates. May Allah SWT send his blessings to him.
As a ghanaian i will love to see you making a video on shiekh jaafar mahmoud adam and Dr ahmed B.U.K May Allah have mercy on their souls and sheikh albani zariya
Nigerian here. From the Yorùbá land. May ALLAH bless Danfodio. However, it also interesting to note that Islam came to Yorùbá land through the Muslims from Gao and Timbuktu 600 years ago through trade in the powerful Ọ̀yọ́ empire (part of Yorùbá land) during the peaceful reign of the handsome Olúàṣo. The story of Islam in the North and the South of Nigeria are different. However, all praises belong to ALLAH who has established the Sokoto caliphate through Danfodio.
Slm Sis 🥰 I'm also from Nigeria. A northern Nigerian muslima
Masha Allah. I'm just getting to know about this diversity in reception of Islam in Nigeria
@@ashwal_alwal walaykum salaam warahmotuLLAHi wabarakatu Ma sister
But a vast majority of Yoruba muslims now are combining shirk with Deen,they are everywhere,they are in the mosque, church and shrine.

@@jamalakinade8175 , one time there was a African prince doing time where I was also. He was muslim, this brother was giving away houses to other muslims he had just met.

They soon moved him to a new prison or deported him. I'm pretty sure the brother was Nigerian. It was indeed amazing.
@@jamalakinade8175 it is very posible
This is truly beautiful story. I learnt about the blessed sheikh in high school. his story was truly inspirational.
While i had heard of the sokoto caliphate i had never heard of uthmaan dan fodio. May Allah grant him jannatul firdaus .
Masha Allah I'm very happy to hear history of our HERO shehu Usman Dan fodio known as MUJADDADI may Almighty Allah have mercy on him proudly Muslim from Nigeria ❤️🇳🇬
Allahu Akbar Peace be upon to Sheik Usman Dan fodio from Nigeria I'm Fulani tribe we are Really Thankful 4 Usman Dan Fodio of His contribution to Islam Masha ALLAH !
i am a fulani too, we are proud of this jama'at from our tribe
This is beautiful. I am from northern Nigeria and proud of him. His influence is still felt till today. I saw some negative comments from the Christians, and is pathetic. Just ignore them.
The only major problem in the world today is islam . Your false prophet , muhammad , warned you in surah 46 ayat 9
U don't know anything
@@EconomicSavant but u do?
Subhanallah, another true Hero in islam.

I am soo happy about this video I always feel happy whenever I listen to my ancestors history ! I am a descendant of sheikh usman danfodio,a torodbe family from sokoto ,let me share a little fun story with you-
I always remember as a child that we don’t eat goat meat in our family 😂the reason behind it is that before the war,sheikh usman danfodio made a promise to Allah that he will never eat his favorite meat (goat meat)if he win the war,and Alhamdulillah he won…and till this day,our family kept the promise and we still don’t eat goat meat 😅 he’s such a great man may his soul rest in peace,Ameen
You should also check the History of al kanemi (kanem) empire of Borno, Nigeria. May Allah bless you all 🙏
Subhanallah, I’m hausa and I never knew about the story of this man, may Allah forgive him Ameen
Seriously? I'm not even from Nigeria and I know about him.
@smbdanhausa3844 alright, care to share an authentic source of your claim so that i can read?
@@Sinceresadiq Forget that blind tribalistic person. All they have is conjecture and lies. Their hate for Islam and fulanis is hidden behind tribalism.
They just spew lies and hatred against Dan fodio and the fulanis. Everything that occurred they view it through their tribal lense.

Thanks for the beautiful history lesson. I had never heard of this man and his great accomplishments. JAK for all your efforts.
Great work One Path Network!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
May Allah ﷻ bless you guys for your efforts. Ameen!
I remember in my first year in uni I was taught he was just a man who went to sudan, learnt about islam and came back to kill he monarchs in the name of jihad. I felt ashamed actually as a muslim at that time till I came across Albaniy Zara audios about his history. I felt really good and happy that I finally knew the truth about my islamic roots. It's funny that alot of hausa people still do not know the exact story of dan fodio but the lies that was spread. I am afraid that what Dan fodio fought for is has successfully surfaced itself back to hausa people. May Allah help us through and bless Dan fodio.
Thats what the enemies do lies and lies.

Thank you so much brother jazakallahu khayr, many Muslims do not consider the West African Muslims as in the Muslim world though in Nigeria there is more than 100 millions Muslims and many other countries have majority of Muslims in the region. However they are forgotten I mean a countries such as Mali , Sénégal, Guinea Conakry and Gambia , we expect more informations related to the history of Islam from these regions.
Truly
I m from morocco and agree
Exactly
Facts. West Africa is the most Islamic region in subSaharan Africa yet we’re still not recognized.
as an African muslim from a country inside of South Africa, I would tell you that you only need recognition from Allah, not from some man in Arabia or the Middle East. Grow your intellect please. Lesotho.🇱🇸🇱🇸🇱🇸🇱🇸❤🌹💯👍🏿

Can a video be made on Muslims that mix pagan rituals with Islamic teaching. I have known a couple African friends that oral tradition have been passed on to them and claim it to be true Islam. I’m sure this happens in many corners in the world. I believe it is very important to shed light on such topic. You have touched briefly on this subject. Thanks for this informative channel❤
not all Hausa mixed pegan with islam, there are hausa who practice paganism purely, without mixing it with islam, u can find them in some parts of Kano, katsina and Niger
@@viewkallo I never said “ALL” that would be me generalizing. Unfortunately there are Muslims that mix pagan practices with the Muslim tradition. This is usually orally passed on to only boys/men, these practices are claimed to be true Islamic tradition. I thought it would be nice to have a documentary that highlights that people need to be aware of Pagan/ superstitious practices that are claimed to be Islamic traditions/ rituals.
@@riab3591 i will share some of d pure hausa who practice only peganism
@@viewkallo You’re missing my point. I’m aware of that people practice paganism and all kind of things, that’s fine May Allah guide them. What blew my mind is finding out that Muslims mix all kinds of rituals and claim it to be Islam.

This is such an inspiring story that not only strikes me as similar to the story of the prophet (SAWS), but also serves as an idea of what we need in our modern world.

Masha'Allaah, may Allaah have mercy upon him and revive the ummah across the globe.
Little history here, my tribesmen who were at that time traditionalists or pagans defeated the invading Sokoto forces in the middle belt region of Nigeria. Despite defeating the Muslims, my tribesmen later became Muslims, Alhamdulillaah. I am a generational Muslim as well which proves that our ancestors became Muslims not long after they defeated the Muslims.
What an incredible journey and story. I am so amazed this feels unreal. Allah blessed him and he literally followed the footsteps of the Prophet Muhammad peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. He even died at age 63!! Subhanallah I am so proud of our Shehu. I really miss these strong and rightly guided sheikhs. May Allah give us someone like him in our lifetime.

@@muhammadusman2533 the French government are the entity that continues to oppress Haiti because of the revolution. America neglects Haiti even though Haiti is responsible for the Louisiana Purchase which gave America a large land mass that the French sold to America so that they could have more money to continue to fight the revolting Haitian slaves. In our earliest days, many of the slaves were Muslim and the French sought to beat their religion out of them and the Muslims refused. One specifically was name Boukman, which sounds French/ Kreyol (the language of the slaves formed by several African dialects and the French language) phonetically as if to say "book man", was said to be an educated and well read Muslim. The "book" be was said to have known was The Quran itself. He was a catalyst in prompting the revolution and inspiring slaves to revolt. The stories and tales of voodoo are largely overshot because to a people who live in squalor, if you have any form of a technological advancement, it is so inconceivable to them that it is believed that it is magic. Islam has been largely in Trinidad, Guyana, and other parts of the west indies as well, with musullahs to educate Muslims. However the truth was suppressed in Haiti for so long due to the French being severely bitter for their military loss to slaves, so much so that when Haiti recieved a $1 billion in donations for earthquake relief , the French government took the money and said it was owed by the Haitians for revolting. France continues to facilitate christian and catholic missionaries to be in Haiti to force their faith on them still. However Islam has begun to spread more in Haiti and now more masjids are being built there.
