Question
The Fulani Jihad led by Shehu Usman dan Fodio is described in the text as a form of what type of crisis?
Correct Answer
Option C is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
The document states: 'The Fulani Jihad could be seen as a form of intra-Muslim crisis. You will recall that Islam had been established and practiced in Hausa land before the influx of the Fulani from the Sene-Gambia region. It was the spectacle of synergetic practices among the Hausa leaders that prompted the sharp reaction of the jihadists to embark on a mission to revive the religion and bring it back to its original form.'
Hint
The text explains it as a conflict *within* the Muslim community, aimed at reforming existing practices.
