Sheikh Abdelaziz bin Mohammed Al-Hashemi Al-Sharif and His Intellectual, Religious, and Political Influence in Southeastern Algeria: A Historical Study of His Role in Sufi Networks, Reformist Movements, and the Algerian National Struggle (1898–1938)

Sheikh Abdelaziz bin Mohammed Al-Hashemi Al-Sharif (1898–1938) emerges as a pivotal figure in southeastern Algeria, wielding profound influence across religious, economic, and political spheres during the early 20th century. As leader of the Qadiriyya Sufi order in the Oued Souf region, he became a cornerstone of local resistance against French colonial policies, bridging spiritual networks with reformist movements and national struggles. His strategic role extended across multiple regions, including Laghouat, M'zab Valley, Ouargla, Biskra, and Touggourt, cementing his significance in both intellectual and political landscapes. The study dissects his educational trajectory, alliances with reformist currents, and interactions with colonial authorities, while also analyzing the 1938 Colonial Education Decree and the 'Second Amiche Revolt,' offering a nuanced understanding of his multifaceted impact on Algerian history.
