The Murabitun World Movement is an Islamic movement founded by its current leader, Abdalqadir as-Sufi (born as Ian Dallas), with communities in countries all over the world. Its heartland is Spain.〔Ulrika Martensson, Jennifer Bailey, Priscilla Ringrose, Asbjorn Dyrendal, ''Fundamentalism in the Modern World Vol 2:Fundamentalism and Communication: Culture, Media and the Public Sphere'', ed. I.B.Tauris, 2011, p. 113〕 The number of its followers may amount, according to one estimate, to around 10,000.〔Oscar Perez Ventura, ''Movimientos Islamistas en Espana: el Movimiento Munidal Murabitun, conversos al Islam en Al-Andalus'', Instituto Espanol de Estudios Estrategos, 2012, p. 8〕 The movement's objectives include the restoration of Zakat, Da’wa and the practice of ''bayat'' (allegiance) to an amir. It considers itself a tariqa in the Darqawi-Shadhili-Qadiri Tariqa tradition. ==Background== The name Murabitun derives from the Almoravid dynasty. The founder of the Murabitun World Movement is Abdalqadir as-Sufi (a convert to Islam born Ian Dallas in Ayr, Scotland, in 1930). He met his first Shaykh, Muhammad ibn al-Habib in Meknes around 1968, and was made a ''muqaddem'' and given the title “As-Sufi”. Ibn al-Habib said to him, “You can stay here with me, and something might happen. But go to England and see what will happen,”〔From “The new Murabitun” by Umar Ibrahim Vadillo, Yildiz Productions, 1999〕 and so he went to London and gathered a group of new British Muslims, returning to Morocco in 1970. The Murabitun World Movement founded a learning centre in Bristol Gardens, London, in 1972, and another centre in Berkeley, California. The leader of the movement, Abdalqadir as-Sufi, has travelled in Europe and America, held talks, and published works such as ''The Way of Muhammad''〔(The Way of Muhammad )〕 and ''Islam Journal'' proposing that Islam could be understood, and entered, as the "completion of the Western intellectual and spiritual tradition".〔 He also initiated translations into English of classical texts on Islamic law and Sufism, including ''The Muwatta of Imam Malik''〔(The Muwatta of Imam Malik )〕 and the letters of Darqawi, published as ''The Darqawi Way''. In 1982 Abdalqadir as-Sufi held a series of talks in America which were to become the basis of his work, ''Root Islamic Education''.〔(Root Islamic Education )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Murabitun World Movement」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
