ABSTRACT
This study aimed at bringing out the influences of traditions and culture of Ebira people on the practice of Islam in Ebiraland. It was observed that Islam was resisted by the pagans of Ebiraland, but eventually accepted it through peaceful means that condoned the practice of both systems together. This is because the traditions of Ebiraland such as belief in masquerade, Ori festival, divination with rosary, reincarnation and witchcraft have some influence in the life of some Muslims in Ebiraland; hence the mixing of Islam and traditional practices of Ebira people become common among most Muslims, especially in their marriage and aspects of faith. The study was limited to the five local government areas located in the central senatorial district of Kogi State. Survey design method was used where a proportional stratified sampling method was used for the percentage sampling fraction. A Questionnaire was designed and administered to both scholars and Muslim traditionalists. 430 respondents were randomly selected. Five (5) Null hypothesis and (5) research questions were formulated and analysed at 0.05 alpha level of significance using Wilcoxon sign rank test computing hypothesis one, while spearman rank order correlation test computing hypothesis Two - Five. The result of the findings revealed that there is a relationship existing between religious ignorance and prevalence of tradition and culture in Ebiraland, which has tremendous influence on their religious practices. Similarly, there is lack of perfect comprehension of the knowledge of Tauhid and Islamic teachings, as well as inability to distinguish Islamic tradition from that of Ebira culture and tradition. Hence, the research suggested the establishment of religious institutions and organisations that are fully acquainted with the misleading traditions and cultures of Ebiraland to evolve a training guide for the youths, old males and females through the true and perfect teachings of Islam. The research also suggested modification in the existing mode of preaching and teaching of Islam in the area of study.
