The Hausa People
Hi guys, welcome to another video in our African Tribes series. Afroartista Films is that channel that strives to educate you about Africa and her people. Today we look into : the Hausa people. Here are six facts you didn’t know about this huge Afroasiatic speaking community. Please remember to like this video and subscribe to Afroartista Films.
1. Big population.
The Hausa are the largest ethnic group in West and Central Africa, numbering around 52 million people. I was surprised to learn that there are Hausa people in Eritrea. Other countries where they can be found are Nigeria, Benin, Cameroon, Sudan, Algeria, Ivory Coast, Chad, Congo, Central African Republic, Togo, Ghana, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Senegal, and the Gambia. The Hausa people are concentrated mainly in northwestern Nigeria and in adjoining southern Niger. This area is mostly semiarid grassland or savanna, dotted with cities surrounded by farming communities. The cities of this region-Kano, Sokoto, Zari, and Katsina, for example-are among the greatest commercial centers in sub-Saharan Africa (Africa south of the Sahara Desert).
2. Origins and Genetics
According to a Y-DNA study by Hassan et al. (2008), about 47% of Hausa in Niger, Cameroon, Nigeria, and Sudan carry the West Eurasian haplogroup R1b. The remainder belongs to various African paternal lineages: 15.6% B, 12.5% A, and 12.5% E1b1a. A small minority of around 4% are E1b1b clade bearers, a haplogroup which is most common in North Africa and the Horn of Africa. Real pure Hausa therefore have their origins in the Eurasian portion of the Middle East. However, it's important to note that a majority of Hausa-speaking people are not genetically Hausa and may be closely related to Nilo-Saharan populations from Chad and South Sudan. This suggests that they originally spoke Nilo-Saharan languages before adopting languages from the Afroasiatic family after migration into that area thousands of years ago.
3. Personality
Hausa tend to be quiet and reserved. When they interact with outsiders, they generally do not show emotion. They are mostly Muslims and largely conservative. The Hausas are quite conservative and, due to the influence of Islam, have a culture that’s mostly influenced by the Islamic faith and way of life. A good number of them make good traders. Aliko Dangote, the richest man in Africa, is a Hausa man. Polygamy is accepted, and western education isn’t so sought after. Leaders are respected and revered. The societal structure is feudalistic. Hausas are the most trustworthy folks in Nigeria. They're completely straightforward. and fearless. The Hausas can get really passionate about a lot of things, especially art and their devotion to Islam. Many view them as being the most prone to violence, especially when they feel religiously insulted. However, most Hausas are peace-loving and highly welcoming. A typical Hausa man is easy to trade with in business and is honest. He is not driven by the quest to succeed at all cost like the Igbo, and so might settle for the meager as long as it is profit at all. The Hausa are the most politically active in the Nigerian political arena, which explains why many Nigerian presidents are Hausa, including the current one.
4. Hausa Language
The Hausa language, from which these people take their name, belongs to the Chadic sub-branch of the Afro-Asiatic language family of Africa, which has strong affinities to Arabic in the north. It is related to Arabic, Hebrew, Berber, Amharic, and Somali, amongst others. Perhaps one-fourth of the Hausa vocabulary derives from Arabic, and more recently, terms from Fulfulde (see Fulani) and Kanuri languages, as well as English, have been incorporated. Many Hausa can read and write Arabic. Hausa is spoken by over 100 to 150 million people across Africa, making it the most spoken Indigenous African language and the 11th most spoken language in the world.
5. Passionate Muslims
Most Hausa people are Muslims. A local historical text, the Kano Chronicle, suggests It is said that the religion was brought to them by traders from North Africa, Mali, Borneo, and Guinea during their trade exchanges, and they quickly adapted to the religion. in the fourteenth century. Today, the Hausa are fierce defenders of Islam and will get upset and even violent if you joke about their religion. However, there is a class of Hausas called Maguzaya-they do not practice Islam but hold traditional African religious beliefs.
6. Traditional dress
Hausa men are easily recognized by their elaborate flowing gowns known as "Babban Gida", matched with a cap called "Huluna". The women wear a wrap-around robe called an "abaya" with a matching blouse, head tie, and shawl-they usually have henna designs on their hands and feet. In general, their dressing style is very conservative.

a Nigeian perspective from Hausa (hausa-fulani)family This great work is on point, hausa are mixed mostly with fulani in Nigeria, this as the result of Sokoto Caliphate. It may not be thesame case in other west african countries so I hope the argument of "these are fulani not hausa" is settled. Personal experiance my paternal grand grand father was called Mohammado Mo'd'do was a fulani nickname and from my maternal line was Malam rabo he speak fulb'e fluently but not my mom, she only understands jab'b'ama 😂, we all speak hausa and we are proud of this great mixture.

Its like every other languages, although its quite easy to learn and they've got a well developed literature in their language. But the most important characteristics is not the language, but the people, they're the most honest and loving people you can meet, if they have no prejudices against you then you can even trust them with your life, they're that honest. Note, I'm referring to only the hausa part. Fulani, however have a distinctive behavior from that of hausa, although they have coexisted as one for a long time, a natural hausa man is someone that is trust worthy.

As a Not-White person from the Great South Asian Subcontinent, I’m grateful for these videos. They teach the world about Africa, from an African Perspective. They reinstate the dignity of civilizations that were undermined and denigrated by european colonialism. In shifting away from the european colonial narrative, I’m wondering if we can now begin to cast away colonially assigned demeaning terminology, e.g. “tribe”. Are there more dignified, respectful terms we could use?

[@AfriasporaFilms]

Very good video. Just a small criticism for all Africa, we need to study our own languages and ethnicities, and re-categorize them without Western scholarship designed to divide Africa from itself. These terms, “Afro-Asiatic”, “Nilo-Saharan”, “Niger-Congo” don’t ring true to me anymore. Africa needs fresh scholarship from African scholars steeped in our oral traditions and traditional sciences, from a uniquely African perspective. If they have Western degrees in addition that would give them credence to shut down Westerners, who falsely claim authority. Aren’t we tired of others coming to Africa and slapping their names, their religion, their science, their terminology and their penchant for telling us who we are? Let us study ourselves and let them wait for us to tell them who we are. But we should NOT use their methodology and classifications to apply to us. Their approaches and analysis may be completely wrong and now we just perpetuate their errors.

Whatever you all choose to cal yourselves collectively will be the only way Africans will unite as one. Continue to have you individual tribes but come under one umbrella. That’s what “Whiteness” is in the United States. All I ever see in the comments is you all arguing about which tribe is what. East Africa vs West Africa and South Africa vs blah blah blah. Unite because separately none of your tribes matter to the nations who came together, became one and now rule ya’ll.

@@peulhAfrique look Fulani but speak Hausa 🤔 What could this mean? Oh it doesn't matter. The Fulani were and still often are a nomadic people. You can find them all over Africa but mostly in West Africa. A great number of them have been assimilated into societies they find themselves in while others endeavour to remain true to their cultural identities. It is however safe to say that a pure Fulani culture cannot be traced at this point in time as each and every pocket of the people found anywhere on the continent have been greatly influenced by their surroundings. Even the language has warped to a few different dialects. For example the Bororoje may not necessarily understand every single word the plateau Highland settler Fulani folk speak. So it is possible that your understanding of Fulani culture is partial to your own locale.

Please re-do this video. You are citing racist western genetics tests. The hausas like other afroasiatics are natives to africa. Which means they had their origins in africa. I know you read the comments, so I expect you'd make the necessary changes like I've seen you do before. Moving forward be mindful of the genetics tests or results you come across. Please educate yourself on the long history of Europeans manipulating history and genetics to claim african groups as non African including ancient Egyptians, indigenous north Africans, east africans and other african groups.

However, the DNA shows that they ABSORBED outsiders who originated in West Asia, or other African peoples who had partial West Asian ancestry. Look at it this way, 30% of African American men have a European Y haplogroup. Would you say these Afro American men originated in Europe or would you say they are descendants of Africa who have some European ancestry? You see the difference? Keep in mind that the Y an M linages only show two of the many linages that a person carries. If you do an autosomal analysis you will see the overwhelming majority of their ancestry is native to Africa.

[@Tashaten]

So that explains you see a lot of West Africans can look like East Africans, So Did Kano tribe come from ancient Egypt and then to the West Africa?

Nilo-Saharan is not a well defined language group even by linguists as there are controversies mainly between unifying the its components: Nilotic and Saharan languages. Within Nilo-Saharan, there are East African Nilotic speakers who look very different and have different genetics from Saharan speakers like Toubou, Kanuri and Kanembu. The Hausas are more related genetically to the Saharan speakers who share R1b and not the Nilotics. In Africa, R1b is only significantly found among Chadic and Saharan language speakers from Nigeria to Chad with another small cluster in the Western desert of Egypt among the Siwi.

[@mikailm6934]

Some R1b are found in Chad, Southern Cameroon, Gabon and coastal Congo toi. The Fang got R1b at a 20% rate. Hausa are quite diverse by the way, they assimilated a lot of Niger Congo people and it's still going on in Central and northern Nigeria. A study found that the E-M2 haplogroup typical of Niger Congo people was found in about 40% of Hausa from Kano, 50% of those from Jigawa and Sokoto
