'No library worth its name in any modern institution or research center should be without the Arabic Literature of Africa series of which this particular volume will remain a culminating flagship for bibliographical and reference scholarship for a long time to come'. Amidu Olalekan Sanni, Lagos State University/ Universitt Bayreuth, in Bibliotheca Orientalis LXIV n 1-2, januari-april 2017'By and large, the ALA series, and indeed this particular volume, has convincingly committed to the dustbin of history the Hegelian thesis of a history-less Africa with no movement or development to exhibit, or Trevor-Roper's characterization of Africa as a 'dark continent' with nodocumentary record, and the utterly false assumption that 'Africa south of the Sahara was, until recently, one of the main areas of the world where writing was totally absent' (J. Goody, Myth, Ritual, and the Oral, Cambridge, 2010, 122). This is a volume for which praise is superfluous, as bibliographers and researchers will find it to be an inexhaustible mine of intellectual materials for a long time to come.'Amidu Olalekan Sanni, Lagos State University/ Universitt Bayreuth, in Journal of Islamic Studies , January 1, 2017; Vol. 28, No. 1, 'No library worth its name in any modern institution or research center should be without the Arabic Literature of Africa series of which this particular volume will remain a culminating flagship for bibliographical and reference scholarship for a long time to come'.
