Résumé
The Great Berber Revolt (2nd century AH) marked the emergence of the first political entities adopting Khārijite doctrines. Its repercussions extended into Western Sudan, where Berber tribal confederations had already established firm foundations and absorbed Khārijite ideas, preceding the dominance of the Sunnī Mālikī school of law. The Mālikī tradition only gained prominence with the rise of the Almoravid Sanhaja state, which itself originated in this region historically referred to as Western Sudan.
