In this study of current trends in the socio-religious life of Muslim communities in major urban centres and cities of Tanzania – Morogoro, Mwanza, and Dar es Salaam – ‘Islamisation’ denotes the strategies and activities that have been key to the spreading practice of Islam over the past three decades (1985-2015). In this period, Islam has embraced new approaches to social, political and economic change. This can be seen reflected in tangible ways as an institutionalized awakening of Islam consolidates faith, unifies sects, and promotes Qur’anic and hadith teachings in everyday life during this the post-Ujamaa era of Tanzania’s history.
