The article discusses the changes that took place in Muslim educational system in Africa, especially in the Sudan in last decades. Beginning with an overview of methods and contents of teaching in traditional Koranic schools, it points out their relationship with a doctrine and practice - syncretic in its form - „black Islam". It discusses the changes in Islamic education, that were brought during colonial epoch. Medreses or ecoles franco-arabes that were established in French Africa tried to combine the tradition and values of Islam with the corriculums and teaching methods brought from the Western model of education. Finally, it points out the meaning of contemporary globalisation, in the process of changes in the Muslim system of education. The appearance of new staff, educated in the Near East, results in the increase of fundamental influences and in the appearance of new type of elites, which scramble for influences and position in the countries of Sub-Saharan Africa. New Muslim elites, contribute to social life with new dimensions of competences (e.g. linguistic Arabisation, knowledge of „pure Islam" rules) and new cultural patterns and educational standards. As a result, the rivalry between old and new Islamic elites becomes a cause of tensions and religious and social conflict.
