THE IMPACT OF ISLAM ON AFRICAN CULTURE

From the earliest period of the world, man  or the human-race has always been heterogenized and symbolically sub-divided (a part from colour and language) by a series of empirical events which have incidentally led to, shapened  and  determined their varied uniqueness whilst interacting with both spiritual or abstract and temporal or physical events and features of worldly life, and thus, the emergence of culture as a glaring feature of different genres of human race was as inevitable as it was indispensable.
