If you get really bored I'll send you a copy of my dissertation about the Rahad Borderlands Study with its section on Popular Islam in the Eastern Sudan in 1984-85.

Hi Ed,
Thank you very much for your article and if you have a pdf of your study, I'll be happy to read it. I'm sure it won't be boring.

1921 is a bit old and a huge amount of litterature has been published on this topic since the past 30 years, I'll be happy to send you some references too.
