Chapter Two: The Jukani Clans 69 rich in cattle and sheep, and they also own a few hundred camels distributed among the Janajiba and the sons of kings (Mashthouf); and the brand they put on the animals is the general brand of the Tijani tribe. The word "Wusra" in Soninke means "the tie" and perhaps this name was given to them because they include individuals of various origins, so you find in the Wusra all sorts – as people say – of scholars, zawiyas, and Hassans who are averse to war, and Negroes; and although they consider themselves a gathering of students, among them are warriors who are afraid. Third: Tijani The Tijani (Al-Summun) in the Hodh form a confederation of 169 tents, and they are descended from Sidi Al-Mahjoub, who has a famous biography in this large Mauritanian tribe, where one should look for them there, as well as study the origins of the Tijani in general. In short, Sidi Al-Mahjoub was close to Sultan Moulay Ismail at the beginning of the eighteenth century, who, according to the story, married him to one of his daughters and showered him with gifts; he had a son from the princess named Sidi Abdullah, and after a few years he came to the Hodh with this young son, where he left him in the Hodh and returned to Tighant, and with the son grew up the Tijani of the Hodh. The leaders of the clan in succession were as follows: Sidi Abdullah {1}, then his son Sidi Abd Al-Da'im {2}, then Sidi Muhammad bin Sidi Abd Al-Da'im {3}, then Nour El-Din bin Sidi Muhammad {4}, and Sidi Al-Sadat bin Nour El-Din {5}; the leadership of the latter was after the death of his father Nour El-Din in October 1915. He is an open-minded man and his clan includes three groups: Awlad Sidi Al-Mahjoub, Awlad Ali, and Awlad Ibrahim. From an administrative point of view, they were divided into two sub-clans: (1) Awlad Ali, whose chief is Jideh bin Al-Sheikh bin Nour El-Din, and they include 67 tents. (2) Awlad Ibrahim, whose chief is Muhammad bin Sidi Ahmed, and they include 102 tents. The Tijani of the Hodh include camel and sheep owners, and the people of Sidi Al-Mahjoub are primarily among them, with wealth in cattle, and their sheep graze in the south of Nema, and their camels sometimes head to Al-Uqla in the northeast and east of Nema; and in the summer their gatherings are in Dibba, Bu Jwish, Sayla, and Adranka. The clan has a very important judge and marabout, Ahmed bin Ahl Abih, who has influence. The Tijani have an annoying reputation for the French: they grant shelter to the raiders of the North when necessary, and this was confirmed at the end of 1917, and of course they did not utter a word about it.
