Salafi Civilization Project in Tropical Africa

Bobokhonov R.

In this paper, we will consider a Salafi civilization project in Tropical Africa. We will try to understand in what format and with what human resources the Salafi movement in Tropical Africa conducts its activities. We will also try to understand why in recent years Salafism has been so actively penetrating these countries, where various Sufi tariqas have functioned successfully for many centuries.We will try to understand what alternative civilizational model of the world order Salafism offers to the whole world, including the countries of Tropical Africa. It should be noted that Salafism declared Sufism - "unfaithful Islam" and therefore began to actively fight against it throughout the world, including in Tropical Africa.

Keywords:Salafism, Wahhabism, Sufism, Sufi tariqas, radical currents of Islam, Islamism, Salafi civilization project.
