Jaririya

Jaririya is a Sufi order, one of the largest Sufi orders in North Sinai. The Jaririya order is named for its founder, Sheikh Eid Abu Jarir, who was a member of the Sawarka tribe and the Jarira clan, and established the order in Sinai in the 1940s.[1] The Jarira clan resides in the vicinity of Bir al-Abed.[2][3]

It has 130 affiliated mosques in Egypt today.[1]

In reaction to the Sinai Province group's threats, the Jaririya order had decided to rebuild its maqam shrines without domes.[4]

The Jaririya order is lineally descended from the Alawi-Ahmadi, Alawiyya, Darqawa, and Shadhili branches.
