Alawiyya Order

The Alawiyya Order is a mystical Islamic tradition, a spiritual path within Islam emphasizing inward devotion, moral discipline, and the pursuit of divine truth. Originating in the 12th century, it combines elements of Sufism with a focus on inner purification and communion with God. The order has historically been influential in regions like North Africa and the Middle East, especially in Algeria. Its practices include prayer, meditation, and community work aimed at fostering spiritual growth and social harmony. The Alawiyya Order values personal spirituality while maintaining outward adherence to Islamic teachings.
