Price: $30.00
Note: The Aissaou brotherhood is a mystical-religious order founded in Meknes in Morocco by Muhammad ben Aïssâ (1465-1526 / 882-933 H.), nicknamed the “Perfect Master” and originally from the city of Taroudant . The terms Aïssâwiyya ( 'Isâwiyya ) and Aïssâwa (' Isâwa ), derived from the name of the founder, respectively designate the brotherhood ( tariqa , lit. "Way") and its disciples (fuqarâ, sing. Fakir , litt. "Poor"). Originally clearly orthodox , the Aïssâwa brotherhood has become a complex social phenomenon, at the crossroads of the sacred and the secular , private and public domain and learned and popular cultures. The Aïssâwa are famous in the Arab world for their spiritual music characterized by the use of the oboe ghaita (syn. Mizmar , zurna ), collective chants of religious hymns accompanied by a percussion orchestra using elements of polyrhythm . Their complex ritual ceremony, which features symbolic dances bringing the participants into a trance , takes place on the one hand in the private sphere during domestic evenings organized at the request of individuals (the lîla-s), and, on the other hand, in the public sphere during the celebrations of patronal feasts ( moussem -s, which are also pilgrimages ) and tourist festivities (folklore shows) or religious ( Ramadan , mawlid or birth of the Prophet of Islam, Mohammed) organized by the Moroccan and Algerian states.
