Shāḏilī

The Shadhili order gained a lasting literary tradition in Egypt and the Maghreb. Ibn Ata Allah, its third spiritual master, taught in Cairo and systematized its doctrines; his aphorisms, the Book of Wisdom, are his best-known work. He died in 1309.

In fifteenth-century Morocco, Muhammad al-Jazuli compiled the prayer book Dala'il al-Khayrat and gathered followers at Safi. In the late eighteenth century Muhammad al-Arabi al-Darqawi founded the Moroccan Darqawi branch.
