Definición

  • Muhammad Ahmad, also known as the Mahdi of Sudan, was a 19th-century Sufi Muslim religious reformer, revivalist, and militant. The Mahdi's messianic resistance movement mobilized Northern Sudanese Muslims to fight against the Ottoman Egyptians, who had exploited Sudan for slaves and ivory since the early 1820s.
