Faith

gomɗinal (from gomɗin-, ‘to believe’) is the general term for belief/faith. As in related Sahelian Islamic contexts, ‘faith’ can default to confessional religious identity (being a gomɗinɗo, ‘a believer,’ understood as a Muslim by default in many Fulfulde-speaking communities) rather than Romans’ sense of personal, saving trust in Christ specifically; the object of faith must always be made explicit.
