Abdullah ibn Muhammad ibn Yusuf Al-Harariyy (Arabic: عبد الله بن محمَّد بن يوسف بن عبد الله بن جامع الشَّيبي العبدري الهرري) (b. 1910 – d. September 2, 2008) was a Harari muhaddith[2] and scholar of Islamic jurisprudence. Living and teaching in Beirut, Lebanon, he is noted as the founder of Al-Ahbash.

History

Al-Harariyy was born in 1910 in Harar, Ethiopia.[3]

In 1983, he founded Al-Ahbash, a Beirut-based organization also known as the Association of Islamic Charitable Projects (AICP).[4] Al-Ahbash is a Sufi religious movement[5] which runs Islamic schools affiliated with Cairo's Al-Azhar University.[6] Due to the group's origins and activity in Lebanon, the Ahbash have been described as the "activist expression of Lebanese Sufism."[7]

Al-Harariyy was one of the Ulama signatories of the Amman Message. Issued in 2004, the statement gives a broad foundation for defining Muslim orthodoxy.[8]

In terms of tariqa, Al-Harariyy was affiliated with Qadiriyya orders in Jerusalem, Damascus and Beirut.[9] He was also licensed as a Shaykh by Al-Azhar University's branch in Lebanon.[7][10]

Al-Harariyy died of natural causes on September 2, 2008, aged 98.[4]
