Qadiri Community of Buh Kunta

The Qadiri community of Shaykh Buh Kunta originated in 1883 when Abu (“Buh”) Muhammed ben Abu Naama Kunta, a descendant of the prestigious Kunta family, established himself in Ndiassane, Senegal, with a small group of followers. This gallery presents audio interviews with Kunta family members and followers, images, and documents (including newspaper articles) to illuminate the history and contemporary dynamics of this Qadiri community.
