  abstract = {{I}n sub-{S}aharan {A}frica, the pilgrimage to {M}ecca is an old tradition, and the {H}oly {C}ity has a global impact on the mobility of {M}uslims and the circulation of {I}slamic ideas. {H}owever, the proportion of sub-{S}aharan {M}uslims making the pilgrimage to {M}ecca has been decreasing, especially from {N}igeria, the most populated country on the continent. {I}ndeed, the opportunities to visit {M}ecca are limited by internal and external constraints that depend on many political, economic, and social factors. {A}s a result, the yearly numbers of pilgrims do not say much about religiosity or the propensity for jihadist violence. {I}n this regard, it is more important to understand from a historical point of view the role of {M}ecca in the so-called radicalization of {I}slam in {A}frica south of the {S}ahara.},
