This article presents themes and techniques of the religious discourse of Abū Muslim al-Bahlānī. Al-Bahlānī was an Omani poet, born in Oman in 1860 who spent most of his life in Zanzibar where he died in 1920. His poetry is a good example of a strong link between art and politics. While the themes are centred around criticizing society and aiming to instigate revolution against people who do not follow Islamic laws, the techniques create harmony in the structure of this discourse. The author argues that this poetry is based on Ibāḍī sulūk, which itself can be considered as an extension of the Kharijite trend. Although, sulūk is linked with zuhd as a way of giving less value to this life, sulūk has some other implications which do not exist with zuhd. Hence, sulūk is not only a way of worshipping God, it is also a set of ideas which aim to change society and establish an Ibāḍī imamate. This attitude can be found with some sulūk leaders such as Jā'id al-Kharūṣī and Sa'īd al-Khalīlī.

This paper presents Shaykh al-Amīn’s history of the Mazrūʿīs -an Omani tribe which was brought to Mombasa in about 1698- and evaluates its intellectual legacy to East Africa. Although the manuscript concentrates on the history of the Mazrūʿīs in East Africa, it comprises considerable material pertaining to other groups that played an important role in the history of the area. The Mazrūʿī history describes the interal factional struggles in Oman and its impact on East African Arab and Swahili communities. It also sheds light on the Portuguese and their policy during the period of their domination of the East African coast.
