"Sufi" was the word i was looking for not "salaf". These are the adherents of the original creed of islam brought by Usman Dan Fodio, the same creed found in most west african countries like mali and senegal. Better known as "yan darika". As you know these are huge divide between sufis and "izalas" who are purer sunnis.

You should also know that among sunnnis, the name "abubakar" is less prevalent among sufis and more prevalent among the izalas. I said less common, not completely absent. Sufis prefer the usage of the names of prophets. Among sects in islam various groups have certain tendencies as far as names are concerned.

sheik Usman Dan fodio is not a Sufi because he has ban A lot of what the Sufi muslims do nowadays like maulud birthday of the prophet S A W and many more and in the world of Islam only the sunni don't practice maulud.

kabesi must hear this

ReysonDrabek:
Only reason i can think of for a hausa muslim not going to a yoruba mosque is most yorubas are salafs and most hausas are sunni muslims and staunch sunnis avoid salaf mosques even in the north. Other wise this whole idea that we see yorubas as inferior muslims is a myth. Yes maybe a good percentage of yorubas arent as devout as northern muslims and you may even meet some that visit both mosques and churches but that doesnt disqualify yoruba muslims as a whole as they are sometimes even more religious than northern muslims. Anyone who discriminates mosques based on ethnicity is on his own.

The salaf sunni divide is why you rarely find many yorubas named after Abubakar or any of the caliphs and companions.

As for differences in names, yes northerners tend to stick to the original pronunciations but even then the names arent perfect in many instances, like Adam in arabic is Adamu in hausa. But these deviations are less noticeable because hausa and arabic belong to the same language family.

Salaf means practice Islam as that of how the Sahabas, tabi'een practice Islam so Salaf is not a sect in Islam so anyone that practice Islam without doing shirk like visiting babalowo in Yoruba land in the North know as boka ,and not visiting church I'm general practice pure Islam then he's is a Salaf so a Sunni is a Salaf in Nigeria we have Salaf organisation like IZALAH ETC so I would like to tell you that Salaf are not divided they are united any person that refuse to name his son with abubakar then he's a Shi'ah not a Sunni u have to know this we have alot of sunni/salaf in Yoruba land and Sufi Muslims in Yoruba land and also ahmadiyya in Yoruba land but in the North we have Salaf /sunni, Sufi, Shia no ahmadiyya In the north

that professor is a big liar and a racist indeed

johnie:
Would it surprise you if a Professor at Pat Utomi's privately owned and run Pan Atlantic University says the products of government-owned universities are half baked intellectuals?

And a UNILAG professor of Law says law graduates from private universities are half baked?




What's the point here?

North Africans bear Rachida while Yorubas bear Rashida

Senegalese women bear names like

Abibatou

Absatou

Aïcha

Aïssatou

Alimatou


While Yorubas bear equivalents such as

Habibatu

Hafusatu

Haishatu

Halimotu

And their northern counterparts bear

Hafsat

Aisha

Halimat

Aminat

Does intonation and accent then make one fake and the other original?

the only difference between the two is accent Yoruba man talk with accent but all of them are right .A Hausa man accent is almost the same with that of the Arab so that maigadi is wrong and just because u are called with malam doesn't mean u are a scholar in Hausa land every one can be called with Mallam period.

the people you call hausa where the last stop for the slave/salt trade on the trans Sahara route, they traded with the Arabs, tuaregs, Maghrebs, salt was a very valuable commodity in the past its natural for they to acquire skills from advances civilization, of course 300 years back my ancestors can't know that because he was in a lush fertile place where all he needs has being cater for by nature around him, but right now his progenitors will take your ancestors offsprings to school and teach them civility.

u are lying because wallahi u don't have the knowledge to teach us we northerners school activities and all the civilisation we have during the ancient times non of it is acquired from any advance civilisation it was invented by our ancestors

masseratti:
With the Trans-Sahara trade route, I don't think those would have being the 1st to set foot on European soil, my belief is that hausas might have being to Rome and never come back, there are accounts of nubians during Roman empire, not only that during the ottoman empire which is European by the way, blacks were the eunichs at the court.

atleast u have to know that Hausa are civilised before the coming of Europeans they can build a well constructed house they wear clothes they are very crafty they make swords, turban, dye clothes that are are transported to as far to Middle East or north africa they know how to read and write they have system of transportation like using Horses, camels, donkey and I know three hundred year s back ur ancestors don't know all this.

Is Dangote offering to buy Chelsea? Africa’s Richest man drops hint  Nigeria’s richest man and Arsenal FC supporter, Aliko Dangote has revealed he might be interested in owning another football club if his offer to buy the London club yet again fails.


Dangote expressed his interest to acquire Arsenal back in 2017 and has continued to make open advances for a deal should majority shares owner Stan Kroenke be willing to listen.

Arsenal is worth $2.5billion and are the most profitable football team in the world behind Manchester United, but it shouldn’t be a problem for the Fulani Business Magnate whose current net worth is put at $10.4 billion, per Forbes.comIn an interview last year in Singapore, Dangote restated his desire to make another bid to buy the Gunners because ‘I am very attached’ to the club.


watch interview-https://www./2019/04/dangote-to-bid-for-chelsea-football-club.html

Dangote is a Hausa from Kano man not Fulani

Nigeria’s version of the jawara tribe

I once read an article about those jarawa of India they are related to jara tribe of Bauchi state the author of the article says those Jarawa of India migrated from Nigeria to India 65,000 years ago.

I remember being shocked at seeing black Saudi Arabians playing for and some supporting their national team. If Saudi Arabia, the most conservative Middle Eastern country, has negro citizens then I don't see why Nigeria won't have even a handful of full caucasian citizens.

I think Saudi Arabia has two indigenous players of Nigerian origin from Hausa tribe and they bear the name AL-HAUSAWI at the Back of their Jessy it means the Hausa .
