520 |a Al-͑Aqīda al-Ṣaḥīḥa bi-Muwāfaqat al-Sharī͑a, published by the Nigerian scholar Abubakar Gumi in 1972, caused controversy within the Northern Nigerian Muslim community due to the book’s fierce attacks on Sufi beliefs and practices. Building on previous analyses of the text that address its role within theological debates in West Africa, this article situates al Aqida al Sahiha with regard to global intellectual currents in Salafism, a loose movement that aims to base Islamic life and thought strictly in the Qurʾan and the Sunna of the Prophet Muhammad. The article identifies key Salafi themes that appear in the text and argues that Gumi’s concerns focused largely on religious and political struggles in Nigeria. This interaction between global discourses and local debates gives insight into the intellectual contributions that Arab-educated Muslims like Gumi have made to religious change in West Africa.
