A list of the names of the Sanusi Zawiyas.

It was mentioned in the beginning of the sixth chapter what the Sanusi historians said about the number of Zawiyas.

The Sanusi historians, and we found it appropriate to try to prepare a list of them and to accurately count their number. So we returned to the lists prepared by some historians, and to the books in which the names of some Zawiyas were mentioned, and we came out with the list included here.

This is a list - and there is no more recent one - and the lists we relied on are three: Arslan in the second volume of "The Present State of the Islamic World," and Arslan mentions in it the names of one hundred and thirty Zawiyas, to which are added six Zawiyas in Tunisia, of which he only mentions the name of one, and a Zawiya in Maghnam in Algeria, then he speaks of the existence of Zawiyas in Abyssinia, Somalia, and Eritrea whose names he does not know. And Richard's list in his book about Ibn al-Sadrasi, which contains the names of one hundred and forty-six Zawiyas distributed between the Arabian Peninsula, Egypt, Yemen, Tripoli, Fezzan, and African Sudan. Richard has identified their locations. And Al-Ashhab's list in his book "The Great Sanusi," which contains the names of one hundred and twenty Zawiyas, thirty-five of which were established during the time of Abd al-Sanusi, according to what he says, and the rest during the time of Abd al-Mahdi.
