De l’archipel berbère au Grand jeu saharien : une histoire des oasis septentrionales au prisme de l’ibadisme médiéval
The settlement, conversion to Islam and economic growth of oases in the Northern Sahara are commonly attributed to Berbers who supported the Ṣufrī or Ibāḍī sectarian movements. Scholars often interpre The settlement, conversion to Islam and economic growth of oases in the Northern Sahara are commonly attributed to Berbers who supported the Ṣufrī or Ibāḍī sectarian movements. Scholars often interpret this historic process through the lens of Max Weber’s theory on the relationship between puritanical sectarianism and mercantile capitalism. From the perspective of Ibadism, and while examining the places where this school was rooted during medieval times, this paper seeks to provide an interpretation of this Berber archipelago by connecting the local scale to the broader transformations of the Afro-Mediterranean area. Indeed, the effort to enhance oases settlements and develop these as a matter of hydraulic and agrarian infrastructure cannot be fully understood without considering the global political and economic context.

Identifying the Rustamid Imamate
The Rustamid Imamate emerged in the aftermath of the uprisings against the Caliphate (around 160/777) and was the leading and only long-lasting Ibāḍī State in North Africa. Tāhart, a settlement in the The Rustamid Imamate emerged in the aftermath of the uprisings against the Caliphate (around 160/777) and was the leading and only long-lasting Ibāḍī State in North Africa. Tāhart, a settlement in the Roman borderlands, became its cradle and witnessed the foundation of a new Islamic stronghold. How was this Islamic polity able to establish itself on the edges of the Caliphate, in a strikingly different social and political milieu? How did the Imamate assert its authority over a fragmented tribal society? The answer to these issues requires understanding of how pre-Islamic traditions influenced state-building and adapted the foreign Eastern model of the Imamate. Through the analysis of foundation narratives and archaeological data, this article reconstructs the formation of this early Islamic polity.
