I am a Muslim, Sunnite and Malakite and I never heard Mohamed, may prayers and blessings be upon his soul, speak of the Tidjania.

Followers of Tijani brotherhood are accused of being agents of France. They supported it against Prince Abdelkader. Prince Abdelkader besieged them in Ain Madi. Can they defend their grandfathers? Can they respond to this statement? Didn't France marry one of their ancestors to a French spy to enhance its control over the region? We want to hear their replies. History shows no mercy for traitors!
