##article.abstract##

In this paper, an attempt has been made to look into the extent at which these reform movements succeeded in transforming different political communities in West Africa. In order to provide a clear and vivid analysis of the level of such transformations, this paper will consider the jihad led by Uthman bn Fodiyo, the most spectacular and far-reaching, as our case study.
