Tariqa Shadhiliyya
The Tariqa Shadhiliyya is a prominent Sufi spiritual tradition founded by Sheikh Abu-l-Hasan al-Shadhili in 13th-century North Africa. It emphasizes inner purification, love for God, and following the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad. Practitioners engage in practices like remembrance (dhikr), meditation, and community gatherings to deepen their spiritual connection. The order seeks to cultivate humility, compassion, and awareness of God's presence in everyday life. It has spread widely across the Muslim world, promoting spiritual growth while maintaining a balanced approach to religion, emphasizing both personal devotion and service to others.
