The Sanusi movement was a religious revival adapted to desert life.
Nonetheless, King Idris, the monarch of independent Libya, was the grandson of the founder of the Sanusi movement, and his status as a Sanusi gave him the unique ability to command respect from the disparate parts of his kingdom.
Despite its momentary political prominence, the Sanusi movement never regained its strength as a religious force after its zawaya were destroyed by the Italians.

In 1830 he was honored as the Grand Sanusi (as Sanusi al Kabir) by the tribes and towns of Tripolitania and Fezzan while passing through on his way to Mecca.
The relative austerity of the Sanusi message was especially suited to the character of the Cyrenaican beduins, whose way of life had not changed markedly in the centuries since the Arabs had first accepted the Prophet's teachings.
The leaders of the Sanusi movement encouraged the beduins to render to the Grand Sanusi a reverence that verged on veneration of him as a saint, an act forbidden in orthodox Islam.

Unable to fight a decisive battle with the Sanusis, Graziani imposed an exhausting war of attrition, conducting unremitting search-and-destroy missions with armored columns and air support against the oases and tribal camps that sheltered Mukhtar's men.
The Italians' superior manpower and technology began to take their toll on the Libyans, but Mukhtar fought on with his steadily dwindling numbers in a shrinking theater of operations, more from habit than from conviction that the Italians could be dislodged from Cyrenaica.
Al Kufrah, the last Sanusi stronghold, fell in 1931, and in September of that year Mukhtar was captured.

Sanusi, apparently a case of first impression,(note 14) Judge Jack B. Weinstein ordered CBS to provide the tape requested by defendant Ayeni, granting the motion to quash only to the extent that CBS could block out the identity of its Secret Service source.
In Sanusi, Judge Weinstein applied an accepted test, requiring the defendant to prove three elements in order to defeat the privilege: the information must be (1) highly material and relevant to the claim, (2) necessary or critical to the maintenance of the claim, and (3) obtainable from no source other than the reporter.
In Sanusi, Judge Weinstein added a new restriction to the settled three-part test: before a member of the press may resist a subpoena, "the court must be confident that the person asserting the privilege does not do so as a means of justifying otherwise illegal conduct."(note 84)

 Qadhafi's Libya and the Prospect of Islamic Succession
Libya proved to be an ideal location for Sanusi Islam, as its relative isolation from imperial machinations and lack of Ottoman scrutiny allowed the order to flourish.
Once the Italian colonizers arrived in 1911, it was inevitable that Libya's resistance would be spearheaded by the Sanusi national network, further enhancing the role of Islam as the prevailing political ideology.
The new monarchy of King Idris relied on religious symbols for its legitimacy and a loose federal structure for the administration of the state.

 Libya the Sanusi Order
On the basis of his perception of the state and needs of Islam, the Grand Sanusi organized a religious order, founding its first lodge (zawiya; pl., zawaayaa) near Mecca in 1837.
The Sanusi order ultimately permitted its leaders to transform their baraka as holy men into a potent political force capable of holding together a national movement.
Although the order had never used force in its missionary activities, the Mahdi proclaimed a holy war (jihad) to resist French inroads and brought the Sanusis into confrontation for the first time with a European power.

 SATS1: Present
Following this is a list of the Sanusi lodges that were founded before 1860, with any information about who were their shaykhs in that period.
Certainty is evidently elusive in such an effort, as the foundation dates of lodges vary considerably between sources and are often given very roughly (I was of course hindered from going to the field to study these questions by the political situation in Libya).
However, while it may be impossible to be accurate, this list­mostly based on the internal Sanusi studies by Muhammad al-Tayyib al-Ashhab and 'Abd al-Malik al-Libi­may give an indication, and may again hopefully be useful as a basis for further studies.

 Development of ijtihad
The founder of the Sanusi movement was born in the Maghreb, outside Mustaghanim in western Algeria, in 1787 and studied subjects like Sufism, Law etc., first at the Qarawiyin university of Fez and later in Cairo and Mecca.
In law, he studied with the muftis of all four schools of law, and in his autobiographies, he does not seem to favour the mufti of his own Maliki school over the others, perhaps more the contrary.
This is thus the method of prayer used by adherents of the Sanusi brotherhood, and is a clear demarcation to the Maliki environment they normally worked in.
