Abu Ali al-Hassan ibn Masud al-Yusi (1631–1691) was a Moroccan Sufi writer. He is considered to be the greatest Moroccan scholar of the seventeenth century and was a close associate of the first Alaouite sultan Rashid.〔Jamil M. Abun-Nasr, ''A History of the Maghrib in the Islamic Period'', Cambridge University Press, 1987, ISBN 0-521-33767-4, p. 223〕 Al-Yusi was born in a Berber tribe, the Ait Yusi, just north of Fes. He was married to Zahra bint Muhammad b. Musa al-Fasi. Al-Yusi left his native village on a very young age for a lifelong pilgrimage. He received his barakah from Sheikh Mohammed Ben Nasir of the tariqa Nasiriyya of Tamegroute, and studied and taught at the zawiyya of Dila with Mohammed al-Hajj ibn Abu Bakr al-Dila'i. Of his autobiography, ''Al-Fahrasa'' (literally: academic journey), only the introduction and first section have survived and these were, until recently, unpublished.〔Selections are cited in Jacques Berque, Al-Yousi: Problèmes de la culture marocaine au XVIIème siècle (Paris: Mouton, 1958), and in ‘Abd al-Kabīr al-‘Alawī al-Mudghirī, Al-Faqīh Abū ‘Alī al-Yūsī: namūdhaj min al-fikr al-maghribī fī fajr al-dawla al-‘alawiyya (Muhammadiyya, Morocco: Mahba‘at Fahāla, 1989). See al-Fahrasa, mss. in al-Khizāna al-Hasaniyya nos. 1183, 5470, and 5995; and ms. in al-Khizāna al-‘Amma, no. 1234 K.〕 His better known text ''Al-Muharat''〔A second and more famous text, ''Al-Muhāharāt'' (Rabat: Mahbū‘āt Dār al-Maghrib li-l-Ta’līf wa-l-Tarjama wa-l-Nashr, 1976)〕 also contains many autobiographical passages. Both texts are remarkable for the author's frank discussions of childhood misdeeds, the pleasures of his conjugal sex life, and other intimate details of his personal life. Al-Yusi's ''Daliyya'' (poem of praise) of his shaikh Muhammad b.Nasir al-Dari of the Zawiya Nasiriyya of Tamegroute, is famous both in Morocco and West Africa.〔Stefan Sperl, C. Shackle, ''Qasida Poetry in Islamic Asia and Africa'', Brill 1996, ISBN 90-04-03587-7, p. 87〕 Al-Yusi overtly criticised the reign of the Alouite sultan Moulay Ismael. This criticism was expressed in 'open' letters, some of which remain today. Al-Yusi is especially well-known because he founded the cult of the seven saints of Marrakech at the request of Moulay Ismael. ==Bibliography== *Al-Yusi, ''Rasa'il Abi 'Ali al Yusi'' (ed. by Fatima Khalil Qabli), 2 vol., Al Yusi's essays, 1981 *Al-Yusi, ''Zahr Al-Akam'', 3 vol., Proverbs and famous sayings of al-Yusi, 1981 *Al-Yusi, ''Al-Muhadarat fi al Lugha wa al Adab'', (ed. by Muhammad Hajji), Essays and reflections by Al Yusi, 1976 *Al-Yusi, ''Mashrab al-amm wa-al-khass min kalimat al-ikhlas'' (Silsilat al-Amal al-kamilah lil-Imam al-Hasan al-Yusi fi al-fikr al-Islami) *Al-Yusi, ''Fahrasat Al-Yusi'', The 'fahrasa' (academic journey) of Al-Yusi Al Hasan, 2004 *Al-Faqih Abu 'Ali al Yusi Al-Mdaghri, a biography of al-Yusi, Abd al Kabir, 1989 *Kenneth L.
