Abstract

Islam reflecting itself, or how Egyptian newspapers see Islam in black Africa. Studies of Islam in Black Africa say little, or nothing at all, on how the Muslims in the Arab world perceive the state of the Islamic community in the South of the Sahara. An analysis of articles published in the Egyptian press reveals the recurrence of certain dominant themes; in the meantime, it shows different perceptions of the problems according to the ideological orientation of the newspapers. Therefore, what is said about Islam in Black Africa can only be understood in reference to the legitimacy conflicts at work in Egypt itself.
