As a Tunisian, i am baffled by the information in this video and the investment ! Everything was on point, you understood the importance of these figures in our culture the way we perceive them and not from an exterior's point of view ! In Tunisia, even to this day, we say jokingly that if there's a reason we're still okay it's sidi belhassen 😅 as if he will pray to God to protect this country. Those zwiy (plural of zawiya) were not only safe spaces for thikr and peace but also people would go there and bring food to the needy. My mom's grandma used to do that pretty much every week, it's called a ziyara. They bring couscous, and there, the poor will find asylum and also food. That's how in those societies people don't die out of poorness. You made me want to visit those zwiy in my country so bad ! Amazing job !

I’m a Shadhuli Sufi. I was literally looking for a place to do thikr in Ramadan and came across your channel and this episode. Subhanallah. I will visit the Abu Said al-Baji zawia this week. Will you believe I’ve lived here for months and never knew this is where the Tariqa was born? You literally answered my prayers. Thank you very much. Bless you.

I got some deep spiritual resonance from the video and it reminded me of a prayer: “Feel the presence of all the Spiritual Families, all the means of God in all worlds, in all places, in all hearts and in all minds. The call of God is Universal. The response is Universal. This is the purpose of life: the call, the response, the expression, the forgiveness, and the return.” The prayer is from MV Summers' work.

As a Tunisian I’m impressed with all the informations you gathered in this video about Sufism. You nailed it man, good job

The biggest Shadhili mentor in the Levant and Turkey area just passed away few days ago, his name is Ahmad Fath-Allah Aljami رحمه الله، he was the successor of my master sheikh Abdul Qadir Isa Alhashimi (the biggest shadhili mentor in the world at his time) May allah be pleased with him. The new successor now is my master sheikh Abdullah Rajjo Alhashimi, he’s a pious god fearing man who lost his oldest son in the earthquake of Turkey/Syria.

I'm a Tunisian and I've been following you for a few years now but I've never expected you to make an entire video about sufism in my country so thank you. Tunisia is very attached to sufi traditions and and many of the things that we do or that you see in the country are linked in some way or another to it so thank you for showcasing that and I wish that you would come back again and visit other saints in other parts of Tunisia and know their stories because each city has a patron saint and many other saints as well.
