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.

In 1890, Germany and Great Britain concluded the Treaty of Helgoland-Zanzibar, which settled many of their numerous and complex colonial issues in Africa. The territorial exchange of British-held Helgoland and German-held Zanzibar, which was part of this agreement, had a major impact in its finalization. Indeed, without the Helgoland-Zanzibar swap, such a treaty most likely would never have occurred. Many hoped that the Helgoland-Zanzibar agreement would usher in a new era in Anglo-German friendship and, perhaps, lead to a formal alliance. Hence, during the 1880s, the seemingly unrelated questing of a North Sea island and imperialist jostling in East Africa played a significant role in Anglo-German relations. This thesis explores the reactions to the treaty before, during and after its negotiations and examines why an Anglo-Germany alliance never emerged following the treaty’s conclusion and what impact the settlement had upon the events leading to the outbreak of World War I.
