ʿAbd al-Raḥmān al-Waghlīsī (Arabic: عبد الرحمن الوغليسي) (died 1384), also spelled Abderrahmane El Waghlissi or Abd-ar-Rahman El Oughlissi, was an Algerian Muslim scholar, author, mufti and imam.[1]
Biography
Sources on the life of al-Waghlīsī remain scarce. We do not know his exact date of birth, but we do know he was born in the village of Tala-Tagouth, near Tinabdher, into the tribe of at Waghlis, in the current daïra of Sidi Aïch. He is best known for writing a treatise on jurisprudence: al-Muqaddima al-Fiqhiyya, famous throughout the Maghreb, Andalusia and Egypt under the name al-Waghlisiyya. This text remained among the region's premier books of teaching Maliki fiqh and Sufism for centuries and has been commented on by many famous scholars (Abdelkrim az-Zwawi, Ahmad Zarruq al-Barnusi, Abu Abdellah as-Senussi).[2]
He is buried in the village of Tala n'Tagouth, in the present wilaya of Bejaia, where a mausoleum was erected to him as well as a small mosque that bears his name. A symposium was dedicated to him in Bejaia in October 2004.
