CORRECT BIRTHDATE OF SHAYKH IBRAHIM NIASSE: 8TH NOV, 1900/15TH RAJAB 1318

CORRECT BIRTHDATE OF SHAYKH IBRAHIM NIASSE

["Rajab 15, 1318, equivalent to 8th November, 1900"]

[and not "Rajab 15, 1320, equivalent to 17th October, 1902"]

Culled from the Book:

The Divine Flood: Ibrāhīm Niasse and the Roots of a Twentieth-Century Sufi Revival

By: Prof. Rüdiger Seesemann (Bayreuth University, Germany)

“..Most authors of primary sources and previous studies declare 1902 as the year when Ibrāhīm Niasse was born, the correct date is two years earlier, on Rajab 15, 1318, equivalent to 8 November, 1900.

The confusion apparently stems from an error in Alī Cissé’s biography (of Shaykh Ibrahim Niasse), who gave Rajab 15, 1320, equivalent to October 17, 1902, as the date of Niasse’s birth. (Sidi ʿAlī b. al-Ḥasan Cissé’s Biography of Shaykh Ibrahim NIasse — “Tarjamat al-muʾallif”. In Ibrāhīm Niasse, Kāshif al-ilbās, 3–13) French colonial sources that mention Niasse usually only give an estimate of his age, not the actual birthday or birth year.

Nonetheless, 1318 has the status of the official birth year, and Niasse himself has written a short note, dated 1353/1934-1935, confirming that this year was correct and 1320 was wrong. (A copy is in my possession — “Ibn Iktūsh, Min akhbār al-shaykh Ibrāhīm”, 26, quotes the document in full)

All sources are unanimous, however, that he was born in the village of Taiba, about twenty-five miles south of Kaolack. This is a further indication that 1902 cannot be the correct year of Niasse’s birth, because the village was destroyed in late 1900 or early 1901, just after his father Abdallāh Niasse (b. 1264/1848, d. 1340/1922) had moved his family to the neighboring British colony of Gambia.
