	Zaouia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Zaouia (Arabic زاوية "corner"), also spelled zawiya or zawiyah, is a Maghrebi and West African term for an Islamic religious school cum monastery, roughly corresponding to the Eastern term "madrassa".
		In precolonial times, these were the primary sources for education in the area, and taught basic literacy to a large proportion of children even in quite remote mountainous areas - leading to a 40% literacy rate in Algeria in 1830, for instance, which was actually higher than after the French left.
		These are still operational throughout the Maghreb, and continue to be a major educational resource in the Sahel of West Africa, from Mauritania to Nigeria.

		But the zaouias are hated by the hard-line Islamists, who are inspired instead by the austere Wahabism born in the deserts of Saudi Arabia.
		Armed Islamic groups have attacked the zaouias, killed their adepts and "talebs" or students, destroyed the tombs of the holy men and sought to banish the ziara, the ritual visit to the tombs that is popular throughout North Africa.
		Zaouia leaders from all over the country were convoked to a big meeting in Algiers in 1993, since when these ancestral institutions have recovered their dynamism and influence.

		MOULAY ABDALLAH, 11km from El Jadida, is a tiny fishing village, dominated by a large zaouia complex and partially enclosed by a circuit of walls in ruins.
		At the zaouia an important moussem is held towards the end of August, attracting tens of thousands of devotees - and almost as many horses in the parades and fantasias.
		Today, there is little to see, though the minaret of the modern zaouia (prominent and whitewashed) is Almohad in origin; behind it, up through the graveyard, you can walk to a second, isolated minaret, which is thought to be even older.
