jan 1, 1770 - Raḥmâniyya

Description:

The Raḥmâniyya (Arabic: الرحمانية) is a Maghribi Sufi order (tariqa or brotherhood), founded by Kabyle religious scholar Muḥammad ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥman al-Azhari Bu Qabrayn in the 1770s.[1] It was initially a branch of the Khalwatîya (Arabic: الخلوتية) established in Kabylia region. However, its membership grew unwaveringly elsewhere in Algeria and in North Africa.
