In the mid-19th century, al-Hajj Umar Taal's jihad significantly impacted West Africa, targeting non-Muslim groups while opposing French colonialism. A prominent figure in Tijaniyya Sufism, Taal's campaign led to the downfall of the Bambara's Segu Empire but sparked conflict with the Massina Fulani. This comprehensive collection features eyewitness accounts and original documents, translated into English for the first time, alongside a detailed introduction that contextualizes Taal's actions within broader historical events, including the 2013 jihad in Northern Mali.
