Departing from precise historical and geographical examples, the author tries to explain the simultaneous or successive articulations between the relationship networks, the alliances and the commercial networks of the sections of the Omani al-Ḥārithī tribe in East and Central Africa. The al-Ḥarithī tribe has some 10.000 members and is composed of 31 sections among which five beduin sections (a list on p. 177). The tribe is characterized by an extreme mobility in space and in time, but despite massive emigration at certain times the tribal structures, apparently, have remained stable.

Photocopy of pp. 69, 100-101 (Ibāḍīs).* Speaking of the presence of Islamic rites and schools in the journal, Deheuvels writes of the Ibāḍīs, who counted more than 100.000 persons in Algeria in the 1970s, that their participation in al-Aṣāla has been minimal; only the Faqīh and historian Sul. b. Dāwud b. Yūsuf (see Ibn Yūsuf) has been associated regularly with the journal.

Vehkavaara, M. (1997). Entering the exciting: the distinctive features of al-Ibāḍīya. Studia Orientalia, 82, 129–144. Fonds Martin Custers.

Based on research at Jerba and Zanzibar. Deals in part with the issue of whether al-Ibāḍiyya forms part of al-Khārijiyya. Gives considerations about what al-Ibāḍiyya really is. Among the author’s sources are Muʿammar 1988 and Quṭbiyya 1992. P. 140 note 28: while Sachau 1894 could write at the end of the nineteenth century that Zanzibar had eight Ibāḍī and two Shāfiʿī judges, presently there is one judge for each of the ten districts plus a chief Qāḍī and an assistant chief Qāḍī, which makes a total of 12 judges, the majority of whom are Shāfiʿīs. And to make the task of the Zanzibari legal counsellors even more difficult, they not only have to keep up with the latest Ibāḍī scholarship but also be informed in the doctrines of the other Muslim minorities, such as the Shīʿite ones. Stockreiter 2002, 52, writes that after the revolution, which put an end to the reign of the Sultan, Ibāḍī judges and Ibāḍī courts were abolished.

The nineteenth-century rise of Zanzibar under the ruling Albusaidi Dynasty of Oman owed its origins primarily to the solid foundations of commercial activity laid down in Muscat in the preceding century. In the subsequent development of the Omani economy, in Omani territories in both Arabia and Africa where the dictates of the Omani political/tribal system did not allow for any centralization of authority, local communities and tribal groups resisted the domination of the Albusaidi rulers as they strove to bring under their own control the benefits of burgeoning trade. The opposition of the major Omani groups in East Africa, the Mazāri‘a of Mombasa and the Banū Nabhān of Pate, to the Albusaidis and the eventual success of the Omani rulers in dismantling and neutralizing this opposition are fairly well documented. However, the sustained challenge of Hilāl b. Sa‘īd to the reign of his father Sa‘īd b. Sulṭān, the Albusaidi ruler of Oman and Zanzibar and their dependencies from 1806 to 1856, has hitherto been neglected, despite the fact that Hilāl's resistance in East Africa was the greatest internal threat to Sa‘īd after that posed by the Mazāri'a and had dire consequences for the subsequent course of Oman's history. The conflict between father and son set in train a course of events that led inexorably to the 1861 British-sponsored dismemberment of Oman into two Sultanates, one in Arabia and the other in East Africa.

Rustāq, ancient capital of Oman, in the eighteenth century was home of Imam Aḥmad bin Saʿīd, the founder of the al-Būsaʿīdī dynasty which has held power since then, when internal strife and a civil war weakened the Yaʿāriba rule and Persians took advantage of the confused situation and occupied Masqaṭ. But Aḥmad bin Saʿīd defeated them and Oman flourished under his government. At his death his son and successor Saʿīd built for him a mausoleum near the famous fort of the city and it was place of pilgrimage until the end of nineteenth century, when it was abondened. After the restauration of 1990 it got again its ancient splendour. With a short historical note and a presentation of the life and work of the Imam, this study presents the sepulcral monument and its inscriptions on five tombstones.
