The Sokoto Caliphate (1804–1903) was one of the most influential Islamic states in West Africa, founded by Usman dan Fodio through a jihad that sought to reform governance and religious practices in the region. Beyond its political and religious impact, the Caliphate played a significant role in the development of Islamic literature, education, and intellectual traditions. This paper explores the literary contributions of key figures such as Usman dan Fodio, his daughter Nana Asma’u, and his brother Abdullahi dan Fodio. Their writings, covering Islamic theology, governance, history, and poetry, have left a lasting legacy that continues to shape scholarship, religious discourse, and educational practices in West Africa and beyond. This study examines the themes, significance, and contemporary influence of the Sokoto Caliphate’s literary output, demonstrating its role in preserving and advancing Islamic knowledge in Africa.
