Karam Allāh Muḥammad Kurkusāwī[a] (died 1903) was a Dongolāwī Mahdist emir (amīr).
[1] Born on the island of Kurkus, near Shendi, Karam Allāh worked with slave traders in the Baḥr al-Ghazāl in his youth.
[1] In 1884 Muḥammad Aḥmad al-Mahdī sent Karam Allāh back to the Baḥr al-Ghazāl as emir and gave him an army.
[1] In 1885, when the Rizaiqāt of southern Dār Fūr rebelled by accepting as refugess some mutinous Mahdists from al-Ubaiyaḍ, Karam Allāh and his brother, Muḥammad Shaikh, led a large army against him.
[3] When the Rizaiqāt chief Madībbū Bey ʿAlī refused a summons, his forces were attacked near Shaqqa.
