He was a close associate of Ahmadu Bello, the premier of the Northern region in the 1950s and 1960s and became the Grand Khadi in 1967, the position was abolished. Gumi emerged as a vocal leader during the colonial era, where he felt the practice of indirect rule had weakened the religious power of Emirs and encouraged westernization. Beginning in the 1960s, public conflicts emerged between him and leaders of the Sufi brotherhood, some of whom he later debated on television programs in the 1970s and 1980s. By that time, he had managed to keep his ideas in the spotlight by holding Friday talking sessions inside the Kaduna Central Mosque (Sultan Bello Mosque). He used the sessions to revive his criticism of established authorities based on his views of a back to the source approach or the need to embrace a puritanical practice of Islam. He also criticized harshly the involvement of mysticism and the resulting syncretized practice of the Sufis. He has a large number of children, however his most popular child happens to be Dr Ahmad Abubakar Gumi who succeeded his father as the scholar of the central mosque Kaduna (Sultan Bello), Dr Ahmad Gumi is a certified medical doctor from Ahmadu Bello University Zaria and was a former military officer, he left the military and travel to study fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) at the umm Al-Qura University in Mecca, Saudi Arabia where he obtained his PhD. Abubakar Gumi has proven not to have anything to do with the present Nigerian evil movement of Boko haram because of his strong support for democracy, civil law and western education since his early years as a teacher, he's often quoted to have said, "during election, voting is more necessary than to pray". Gumi is a follower of the Maliki school of thought, this was derived through his writings including his Qur'anic tafsir (Raddul azhaan ila ma'anil Qur'an) and other books like (hullu nizam ala nuzuul isa).

  • Scheich Abu Bakr Mahmoud Gumi (arabisch أبو بكر محمود غومي, DMG Abū Bakr Maḥmūd Ġūmī; geb. 1922 im Dorf , District Sokoto (heute Zamfara), Nigeria; gest. 11. September 1992 in London), bekannt als Abubakar Gumi, war ein nigerianischer islamischer Gelehrter und Anführer der salafistischen Bewegung in Nigeria. Er führte den Titel eines "Groß-Kadi" (oberster islamischer Berufungsrichter) von Nord-Nigeria von 1962 bis 1967 und setzte in seiner Zeit das Scharia-Gesetz in der Region durch. Er war bekannt dafür, sich gegen die traditionellen, mit den Sufi-Bruderschaften verbundenen muslimischen Autoritäten im Norden Nigerias zu stellen, die ihm zufolge Mystizismus und Synkretismus praktizieren, und war dafür bekannt, dazu beigetragen zu haben, einen vom Wahhabismus inspirierten reformierenden Islam zu propagieren.

  • Abubakar Mahmud Gumi, né le 5 novembre 1922 ou le 7 novembre 1924 à Gummi (Nigeria) et mort le 11 septembre 1992 à Londres (Royaume-Uni) est un érudit musulman nigerian ayant occupé le poste de « grand cadi » (juge en chef de l'État) de la région du Nord du Nigéria de 1962 à 1967. Il est connu pour s'être opposé aux autorités traditionnelles musulmanes du Nord du Nigéria, liées aux confréries soufies, qui d'après lui s'adonnent au mysticisme et au syncrétisme, et pour avoir contribué à propager un islam réformateur inspiré du wahhabisme. Sa traduction du sens des versets (ayat) du Coran en haoussa lui vaut d'être récompensé par le prix international du roi Fayçal en 1987 pour service rendu à l'islam. (fr)
