Résumé
	Islam first appeared in the western Sudan some time in the 8th century and reached its climax there in the 14th and 15th centuries. During that period many of the rulers and peoples of Ghana, Mali, and Songhay became Muslims, and tried to spread their religion by peaceful means as well as by the sword. Nevertheless, a new Sudanese societies resisted the spread of Islam. Delafosse tells (1912) that the mossi were still resisting Islam. But subsequently many of them did become Muslims. Today Islam is a growing religion among the Mossi. After having given a sketch of the history and of the social structure of the Mossi the author analyses the diffusion of Islam and Islamic practices in the Kombissiru region of Ouagadougou, especially in Nobéré district, where he conducted fieldwork from November 1956 to January 1957.
