📘 Oogirde Malal – Islamic Poetry in Pular

Discover Oogirde Malal, a masterpiece of Fulani poetry (in the Pular language), written in the 18th century by the illustrious scholar of Fouta Djallon, Thierno Samba Mombeya. This precious book deals with Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) according to the path of Imam Malik Ibn Anas, in a unique poetic style.

At a time when religious instruction was conducted exclusively in Arabic, Thierno Samba had the bold vision of transmitting Islamic knowledge in his mother tongue: Pular (Fulfulde). With this work, he not only preserved the richness of the Fulani language, but also facilitated access to Islamic knowledge for local populations.
