Mr Brahim Frej, chamberlain of HM the King gave, on Tuesday, some Royal Gifts to the chorfas [ Moroccan Sharifs] of the zaouia [Qur'anic school/Brotherhood] Kadiriya and Seddikia and to the chorfas descendant of the saints Sidi Ahmed Ben Ajiba and Sidi Bouaarakia.
A religious ceremony was organized on this occasion at the mausoleum of Sidi Ahmed Ben Ajiba (20 km /12.5 miles from Tangier).
The saint man, who was known as one of the great Sufis in the area, devoted his life to the fiqh [jurisprudence] and bequeathed a vast work of reference in the fields of theological sciences and Sharia.
