Pursuing the Path of the Tijaniyya: Qasd Sabil

By Muhammad Al-Hafiz and Mathias Eichhorn

Shaykh Muhammad al-Hafiz al-Masri's concise treatise, Pursuing the Path of the Tijaniyya (Qasd al-Sabeel fi al-Tareeqah al-Tijaniyyah), provides a comprehensive and succinct compilation of the essential conditions of the Tariqa Tijaniyya, as derived from the foundational works of the path.

Born in Egypt in 1315 AH (1897), Shaykh Muhammad al-Hafiz, is recognized as one of the foremost hadith scholars of 20th-century Egypt. In the Tariqa Tijaniyya, Shaykh al-Hafiz obtained Ijazahs from an illustrious lineage of authorities, culminating in his most prominent authorization from Shaykh Ahmad Sukayrij.

In this seminal work, Shaykh al-Hafiz categorizes twenty-nine conditions of the Tijaniyya into five key sections, covering the student-teacher relationship, personal conduct, the validity of dhikr, proper manners during dhikr, and the qualifications for teaching the Tijaniyya. An additional chapter provides practical guidance on implementing the awrad in various real-world scenarios.

This treatise, though brief-spanning just 26 pages in Arabic-offers a profound roadmap for seekers, illuminating the path of spiritual refinement within the Tariqa Tijaniyya with clarity and depth.
