Archival Overview
Revered 16th-century Sufi ascetic of the Jazuliyya branch whose mystical wandering earned him the title 'Rahhal' (the Traveler), founder of the religious center of Sidi Rahhal in the foothills of the High Atlas.
Biographical Record
Sidi Rahhal al-Boudali was a disciple of Sidi Abdelaziz al-Tebba in Marrakech. Embracing radical ascetic poverty and contemplative solitude, he traversed the plains and foothills of the High Atlas, dedicating himself to preaching moral elevation and establishing communal grain silos for famine relief.
His zawiya at the foot of the Atlas became a renowned pilgrimage center and sanctuary, giving birth to the town of Sidi Rahhal which preserves his memory and annual moussem.
