dc.description.abstract | This research examines the impact of Islamic religion on Yoruba culture. The study starts with a general introduction of the work. It discusses the nature and forms of traditional belief among the Yorubas. It states in detail the Yoruba religious philosophy and the concept of God, and their objects of worship. This allows us to comprehend the transformation that develops later. Likewise the study emphasizes the extent to which Islam has penetrated and influenced Yoruba communities. It is significant to note here the flexibility of Islam and its ability to accommodate various aspects of the Yoruba traditional way of life. This work also highlights the spread of Islam, its impact, and the influence it has where rapid conversion has taken place. It also explains syncretism in the belief and practice of Islam in Yorubaland, and the challenges of Christianity toward Islam and its aim of establishing Western education in Nigeria. The study compares the Yoruba traditional lifestyle and the Islamic traditions. It shows that Islam contributed positively to the Yoruba culture, especially in three important ways: through the establishment of Islamic education, Islamic organizations and Sufism. Thus, the spread of Islam to the Yorubaland is a positive thing to the Yorubas since it has uplifted their status and prestige. | en_US |
