This research paper aims to highlight the interest of the Tajakanat tribe in the Tijaniyya Sufi order during the 13th/19th century. It does so by introducing some of its notable figures who championed the Tijaniyya Sufi order in the town of Tindouf, Algeria, such as Omar bin Al-Arab and the Ahl Al-Abd Al-Ramadani family. These figures played a significant role in fostering cultural connections between Tindouf and the cities of the Western Sudan, which contributed to the intellectual and cultural flourishing of Tindouf.
