This talk will explore how the Omani diaspora in Tanzania has articulated Ibadi Muslim identity in the decades since the 1964 Zanzibar revolution. It will show that Ibadi leaders draw on a rhetoric of Muslim unity and religious tolerance to publicly demonstrate the inclusivity of contemporary Ibadism while also showing the limits of inclusion by defining communal identity along ethnic and religious lines.

Cet article examine comment les écoles de la diaspora ibadite omanaise ont eu un impact sur l’éducation religieuse et les relations afro-arabes dans le Zanzibar post-révolutionnaire. L’essentiel de la littérature existante consacrée à l’ibadisme et à la diaspora omanaise à Zanzibar est axé sur l’histoire économique de l’île, sur les histoires des élites arabes sous le sultanat et sur la politique de la révolution de 1964. Peu de travaux explorent comment les ibadites à Zanzibar aujourd’hui se distinguent d’autres musulmans en se mariant au sein de la communauté omanaise, en servant de leaders d’Istiqama, en portant des vêtements omanais, en fréquentant des mosquées ibadites et en inscrivant leurs enfants dans des écoles ibadites. Cette étude offre une nouvelle perspective sur l’ibadisme et les relations entre Oman et Zanzibar sous le néolibéralisme à travers les expériences vécues d’ibadites et non-ibadites affiliés aux écoles de la communauté musulmane Istiqama.

The file is a précis of correspondence related to affairs at Zanzibar between the years 1856 and 1872, prepared by Captain Philip Durham Henderson of the Foreign Department in the Government of India. The contents of the précis, which includes reports from Christopher Palmer Rigby, the British Consul at Zanzibar, and Sir William Marcus Coghlan, relate to: the death in 1856 of the Sultan of Muscat Syed Saeed [Sa‘id bin Sulṭān al-Sa‘id] without a direct heir; the succession struggle between Syed Thoweynee [Thuwaynī bin Sa‘id al-Sa‘id] and Syed Majid [Sa‘id Majid bin Said al-Sa‘id]; British arbitration in the dispute; succession arrangements at Muscat and Zanzibar; the slave trade between Zanzibar and Muscat. The précis is organised into six chapters (labelled I to VI), as follows: I – Events preceding the arbitration by the Government of India; II – Arbitration of the Government of India; III – Proceedings subsequent to the arbitration relating to the question of subsidy; IV – Events at Zanzibar from the arbitration to the death of Syed Majid; V – Events in Zanzibar from the death of Syed Majid; VI – Slave Trade.

A printed memorandum, written by Adolphus Warburton Moore, Assistant Secretary of the Political and Secret Department of the India Office, 27 September 1876. The memorandum discusses the views of Henry Cadogan Rothery on whether the Imperial Government had to contribute to the payment of an annual subsidy to the Sultan of Muscat (as compensation for the abandonment of his claims upon Zanzibar) and of the expenses of the Agency and Consulate at Zanzibar, made by the India Office from 1870. Rothery writes that, because the Agent at Zanzibar was also acting as Judge of the Vice Admiralty Court in the Trial of the Slave Trade cases, it was the duty of the Imperial Government to contribute towards these expences.

A printed report, written by a Committee formed by Louis Mallet, Henry Cadogan Rothery and William Henry Wylde, 8 December 1876. The Committee was nominated by H M's Treasury, the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs and the Secretary of State for India, to determine whether the Imperial Government had to contribute to the payment of an annual subsidy to the Sultan of Muscat (as compensation for the abandonment of his claims upon Zanzibar) and of the expenses of the Agency and Consulate at Zanzibar, which had been paid by the India Office since 1870. The committee acknowledges that in 1873 it was agreed that these payments should be divided between Imperial and Indian Government, hence the Imperial Government had to compensate the India Office for the payments made in the years 1873-1877. The report includes a summary of payments made to the Sultan of Muscat between May 1873 and February 1877, expenses for the British Agency and Consulate General at Zanzibar for the period 1872-1877, and a proposed budget estimate for the future, to be equally divided between Imperial and Indian Government. Two declarations follow the report, from two comissioners in disagreement with the report.
