As a Muslim from Singapore, I am proud of this great country. I love Tunisia, the beautiful mosques, the architecture, and the wonderful people of the city as well. I would love to explore more of the mausoleums of Sufi saints.
you're not muslim so? Because a muslim is a one who submit to Allah and worship him and ask him everything. The mausoleums and all of this are shirk and u will go straight to hell
I am not a Muslim, but I have always been so impressed with the beauty of Arabic calligraphy (I know you did an episode on that) as well as the unparalleled architecture. The spirituality of Islam comes out in more than the Sufi philosophy. It's all so impressive.
I was already following your videos for some time, it's a nice surprise to see a video about my country sufi figures, thank you for the video and for coming here !
I got chills hearing the dhikr of 17:00 how beautiful is that ! it makes me feel something very special , like a a whole new way of seeing the world , bless you all my muslim brothers , i converted to islam 2 months ago as i find it the most convincing religion and i love reading and learning better about quran and im practicing my 5 prayers daily alhamdullilah ! peace upon you brothers and i hope i ll visit tunisia soon❤
So refreshing to see footage of Tunisia combined with your calm narration. Wonderful and interesting work as always! Have you ever thought about making a video about sufism in Europe? Particularly in the Balkan area - Albania, Bosnia, Kosovo etc. Might be an interesting topic for you, and not gonna lie, I would love to see that one myself :) Greetings from Bosnia, keep up the good work Filip!

In Tunisia, even to this day, we say jokingly that if there's a reason we're still okay it's sidi belhassen 😅 as if he will pray to God to protect this country. Those zwiy (plural of zawiya) were not only safe spaces for thikr and peace but also people would go there and bring food to the needy. My mom's grandma used to do that pretty much every week, it's called a ziyara. They bring couscous, and there, the poor will find asylum and also food. That's how in those societies people don't die out of poorness. You made me want to visit those zwiy in my country so bad ! Amazing job !
I just came back from my home country Tunisia, and your video filled me such emotions about all what I love about my country, your video reflects a great work of a historian and a passionnate researcher
I hope you have more material like this about specific cities history. I cannot understate how great this was. I followed along on Google maps and I'm yearning for the day I can get there
It's just amazing how this video introduced aspects of the city that are often forgotten, and highlighted the spiritual value of Tunis so beautifully, away from the typical tourism focused image. This is a beautiful reminder for me to reconnect with the spirituality of my own country !
your writing and narration has become so incredibly pelasant and informative over time loved this exploration of a fascinating place i knew much too little about in conclusion: thank you, big fan, keep it up :)
A lovely tradition... I got some deep spiritual resonance from the video and it reminded me of a prayer: “Feel the presence of all the Spiritual Families, all the means of God in all worlds, in all places, in all hearts and in all minds. The call of God is Universal. The response is Universal. This is the purpose of life: the call, the response, the expression, the forgiveness, and the return.” The prayer is from MV Summers' work.
I’m a Shadhuli Sufi. I was literally looking for a place to do thikr in Ramadan and came across your channel and this episode. Subhanallah. I will visit the Abu Said al-Baji zawia this week. Will you believe I’ve lived here for months and never knew this is where the Tariqa was born? You literally answered my prayers. Thank you very much. Bless you.

The biggest Shadhili mentor in the Levant and Turkey area just passed away few days ago, his name is Ahmad Fath-Allah Aljami رحمه الله، he was the successor of my master sheikh Abdul Qadir Isa Alhashimi (the biggest shadhili mentor in the world at his time) May allah be pleased with him. The new successor now is my master sheikh Abdullah Rajjo Alhashimi, he’s a pious god fearing man who lost his oldest son in the earthquake of Turkey/Syria.
Wow I've been a big fan of your work for a while as Sufi, but now you are also talking about my country, I am sending. Love and peace your way brother.
What a magnificent piece of art (this mini documentary). Love it fully. Indeed, after watching your video multiple times, I feel like my ''Iman'' increased. ❤️
As someone born in Sweden and living in the U.S.A., just know that there is much love for the Islamic world over on this side of the globe as well :) The people who can see past petty politics and misrepresentation will always recognize the beauty in your culture. I hope one day to visit many Islamic countries and experience their beauty. Sending much love your way.
Filip, you've knocked it out of the park once again with this video. I loved the documentary style too, it has increased my desire to visit Tunisia. Incredible work!
This is such a peaceful video 😌 I would definitely love more of this kind. Your voice as always is calming and the knowledge you provide is unmatched anywhere on TH-cam. Thank you for making these videos 🙌🏻 seeing through history and talking about people that once roamed this planet has a different vibe altogether. I always feel like I'm in an astral plane and personally seeing these events unfold before my eyes but I can't interact with them
I'm a Tunisian and I've been following you for a few years now but I've never expected you to make an entire video about sufism in my country so thank you. Tunisia is very attached to sufi traditions and and many of the things that we do or that you see in the country are linked in some way or another to it so thank you for showcasing that and I wish that you would come back again and visit other saints in other parts of Tunisia and know their stories because each city has a patron saint and many other saints as well.
@@esmamrahorovic5904 Yes! In every city there are at least 2-3. Of course there are patron saints in each, in Monastir it's 'El Mezri' but I encourage you to visit Sidi belhassen mentioned in the video, sidi Bou said (the city was named after the saint), sidi mehrez (Tunis) and sidi Sahbi (Kairouan).
I didnt know that they had female Sufis, I had a dream that showed me a female Sufi, so this confirms my dream that it might be some special dream. Be blessed.
Wow, I love watching this channel, and to my surprise I find a video about my country! Your research is amazing, very accurate and well informed. Keep up the great work!
If only most of us "Tunisoids" saw and felt our hometown as affectionately as you presented it in this beautiful video! Have been a subscriber for a while now and I haven't expected this haha I'm a bit sad tho as I missed the chance to meet and talk with you 😅
This is such an outstanding video; your work really is fantastic. It's also cool seeing a heap of appreciative Tunisians in the comments; I think that there's something really beautiful about people getting excited about the sharing of the culture and history of their environment. Thank you for your work.
Tears...thankful for this gift today. I was just there not 3 months ago!...also to be with the Sufi tradition in the land. It means a lot to see it all again.
I'm following you for a long time and I didn't see this coming. It made me happy that you come to Tunis and. This video depicted my country in a new and a beautiful way ❤❤❤
This was 👏Perfect. I wasn't watching just a video. It was like a journey to a different space and time and I felt something very special that I couldn't express. Wonderful 👏

As someone who's been an avid viewer of your videos for years, it's a bit disappointing that I missed the chance to talk to you in person.

Timecode 16 : I can recognise the end of "Hizbu al-Bahr", one of the most powerful incantations of Shadhiliya. Greetings from Tunis ! I discovered your channel in January. Great content, thank you very much !
This documentary made me want to visit Tunisia from Portugal. But... but what amazed me was your music. Is fabulous! I recommend everybody here to listen to Desert Wanderings on TH-cam. My God! Deep mistic sounds from your tradition. I’m a follower, now, wanting to hear more from you.
Fascinating video! Been in Tunisia once, but only for a day, some harbor city, 35 years ago. I have a good friend who spend a lot of his childhood there, so it was fascinating to see your recordings and hear about it. History of religion is pretty fascinating! The town with the blue windows looked very beautiful!
I've been following your channel for quite a while. Your videos are really informative and well researched. I'm from Tunisia, I'm glad you visited ! Hope your stay was enjoyable :D
Great video as always. I'm glad you got to visit Tunisia and shown something other than its tourist traps, very beautiful landscapes and spiritual resonance. You should come to Algeria next time, it also has, I'm sure you know, a rich tradition of sufism. You can visit the mausoleum of Abu Madyan el ghawth in Tlemcen and many other places. You'll be the most welcome !
this is the way of Tunisians and Zaitouna throughout history : Concerning the tenets of belief of (Imam) al-Ash`ari, the jurisprudence of (Imam) Malik, | and the path of Junayd, the (spiritual) traveler. thank you for this video
I used to live in La Marsa and walked to Sidi Bou Said often. It is very beautiful There was a touring sufi troupe of 'performers' who did shows and it was very powerful- there was percussion, dhikr, flag waving and chanting etc. The audience would get involved and many people had ecstatic experiences
This video was a balm for my heart, I am very grateful to you for highlighting Syeda Manoubia (RAA) and the other female Sufi teachers. I hope to hear more about them!
I am grateful and gratified that I have "discovered" (by chance) your TH-cam channel. I have seen only three videos but it feels like I have attended graduate program on religion. Thank you for sharing your brilliant scholarship.
I just want you to know that I love this channel and I put it on every night when I'm going to sleep. Your voice is very soothing and religious history is quite interesting as well as quite the sedative :). I've loved learning about the Sufi mystics. I feel a connection to that way of worshiping. Thanks for explaining islam and helping more people understand that it's a beautiful path.
this was absolutely amazing. as a tunisian in the diaspora who’s never been back home, and is enamored with sufism, you’ve given me many places to visit when i do go. more videos on tunisia please
Thank you very much for making this portrait of Tunis and its religious history! You're more than welcome to come back anytime and I'll be happy to provide you with free accomodation. N.B: A quick important historical note: Sidi Bousaid iconic blue color was added by the Baron Derlanger, a late 19th century French Jewish businessman, the village was in bad shape then and he investment his money to fix it, but in the process changed the color from the iconic dark green of Tunis and Muslim countries to that blue which ressembles Santorini in Greece.
I was watching your videos for a while now and I never knew that you visited Tunisia, I hope that you've enjoyed your stay here and that you would visit again as there still are a lot of important sufi locations in the south of the country. Keep up the great work that you do as we all appreciate it 👍
Watching this and listening to your calm narration “brought me “ there …spiritually…wished I could visit the place one day insyaallah , thank you for the beautiful story of Tunisia
What a wonderful information from our beloved Mr. flip H, inspiring & insightful as always. May ALLHA bless him with good health & long life to enlighten us all.
Thank you for helping people discover this unkown part of Tunisia. I hope next time you come here you'd visit other cities which also have some very famous saints.
@@LetsTalkReligion I invite you to come to Béja in the northwestern part of Tunisia, there is also Sousse, Monastir and Gabes that have a rich mystical heritage!
I grew up right next to the Zawiya of Sidi Belhassan and i used to visit it with my grandma and her neighbour ( who was also like a grandma to me) so often! We would light candles and say dhiker together, I as a child only mimicked what the grow ups did or was excited to get all the candy and sweets when it was the time of Ziara. Now My Grandmother and Grandfather are buried in Zalez on that very mountain. Your video awakened a need to visit that amazing place.
No one can surpass the spiritual understanding of Prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him. For He was Honored with the greatest blessing of communicating with Allah Highly Glorified and Exalted is He and seeing him beyond the highest place beyond the Lotus Tree by which angels can not pass !
Fantastic video keep it up you're doing amazing job also is Abdal Hakim Murad your dad as he looks like you and he does similar topics as you may Allah guide all of us to the right path ameen 👍😁

I have a good friend who spend a lot of his childhood there, so it was fascinating to see your recordings and hear about it.
History of religion is pretty fascinating!
The town with the blue windows looked very beautiful!
Salam from Indonesia moslem to all brothers and sisters in Tunisia.
Everything about this essay was great. From the content, to the shots and editing (:
OMG Fillip !! Finally a video on Tunisia'a saints ! Thank you !!
Thank you Filip. Thank you for showing this side of our beautiful religion. I loved every minute of this ❤️
I've been following your channel for quite a while. Your videos are really informative and well researched. I'm from Tunisia, I'm glad you visited ! Hope your stay was enjoyable :D
It was very enjoyable! Thank you for having me!
You have so much amazing content, but this might be one of the best videos you have made.
Great video as always. I'm glad you got to visit Tunisia and shown something other than its tourist traps, very beautiful landscapes and spiritual resonance. You should come to Algeria next time, it also has, I'm sure you know, a rich tradition of sufism. You can visit the mausoleum of Abu Madyan el ghawth in Tlemcen and many other places. You'll be the most welcome !
this is the way of Tunisians and Zaitouna throughout history :
Concerning the tenets of belief of (Imam) al-Ash`ari, the jurisprudence of (Imam) Malik, | and the path of Junayd, the
(spiritual) traveler.
thank you for this video
Please make a video on Sufi philosophy regarding the heart (i.e the qalb, aql, nafs and ruh) explaining what they mean by different Sufi traditions
As a Tunisian, thank you for making such a beautiful video 🤲
Beautiful work! Thank you
Thank you!
I used to live in La Marsa and walked to Sidi Bou Said often. It is very beautiful
There was a touring sufi troupe of 'performers' who did shows and it was very powerful- there was percussion, dhikr, flag waving and chanting etc. The audience would get involved and many people had ecstatic experiences
This video was a balm for my heart, I am very grateful to you for highlighting Syeda Manoubia (RAA) and the other female Sufi teachers. I hope to hear more about them!
I am so glad such vidios are made they bridge between different faith and inspiringly increase understanding of essence of other faith.
What another incredible video. Thank you for this beautiful trip to Tunisia and learning more about Sufi Tradition and history.
Always extraordinary. Thank you, Filip
Your every work is appreciable
Tunisian people have such a beautiful culture. Fascinating how Sufism impacted them. Thanks for this.
Tunisia is often perceived as one of the most secular among Muslim nations: such a nice coverage of these less known facts.
Beautiful job once again jazakallahu khayr may Allah open our hearts to islam and tasawwuf
I am grateful and gratified that I have "discovered" (by chance) your TH-cam channel. I have seen only three videos but it feels like I have attended graduate program on religion. Thank you for sharing your brilliant scholarship.
I just want you to know that I love this channel and I put it on every night when I'm going to sleep. Your voice is very soothing and religious history is quite interesting as well as quite the sedative :). I've loved learning about the Sufi mystics. I feel a connection to that way of worshiping. Thanks for explaining islam and helping more people understand that it's a beautiful path.
Wonderful documentary, good job, thank you so much for your attention to details and for choosing my beloved country Tunisia ❤🇹🇳
thanks for another great video you presentation is alway so clear, calm and concise.
Thank you!
this was absolutely amazing. as a tunisian in the diaspora who’s never been back home, and is enamored with sufism, you’ve given me many places to visit when i do go. more videos on tunisia please
This was beautiful. Thank you Filip ❤
Thank you Zevi! ❤
Every time I watch one of your videos on Sufism I feel the desire to learn Arabic and delve into the works of these great mystics myself.
Thank you very much for making this portrait of Tunis and its religious history!
You're more than welcome to come back anytime and I'll be happy to provide you with free accomodation.
N.B: A quick important historical note: Sidi Bousaid iconic blue color was added by the Baron Derlanger, a late 19th century French Jewish businessman, the village was in bad shape then and he investment his money to fix it, but in the process changed the color from the iconic dark green of Tunis and Muslim countries to that blue which ressembles Santorini in Greece.
Apart from being Tunisian, this video is MAJESTIC ♡♡
I was watching your videos for a while now and I never knew that you visited Tunisia, I hope that you've enjoyed your stay here and that you would visit again as there still are a lot of important sufi locations in the south of the country. Keep up the great work that you do as we all appreciate it 👍
Watching this and listening to your calm narration “brought me “ there …spiritually…wished I could visit the place one day insyaallah , thank you for the beautiful story of Tunisia
I hope this is just the start of a series of videos of your travels in sacred places. Great work Filip!
V interesting and informative..Thanks for the beautiful video
What a wonderful information from our beloved Mr. flip H, inspiring & insightful as always. May ALLHA bless him with good health & long life to enlighten us all.
A great episode... Thank you! 🙏
It’s good to finally see you outside of your studio ❤
Thank you for helping people discover this unkown part of Tunisia.
I hope next time you come here you'd visit other cities which also have some very famous saints.
For sure, would love to come back! I was in Kairouan and al-Jam too, but only briefly.
@@LetsTalkReligion I invite you to come to Béja in the northwestern part of Tunisia, there is also Sousse, Monastir and Gabes that have a rich mystical heritage!
🚬
I grew up right next to the Zawiya of Sidi Belhassan and i used to visit it with my grandma and her neighbour ( who was also like a grandma to me) so often! We would light candles and say dhiker together, I as a child only mimicked what the grow ups did or was excited to get all the candy and sweets when it was the time of Ziara. Now My Grandmother and Grandfather are buried in Zalez on that very mountain. Your video awakened a need to visit that amazing place.
The sufis have such an amazing lifestyle. Thanks for another great video!
No one can surpass the spiritual understanding of Prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him. For He was Honored with the greatest blessing of communicating with Allah Highly Glorified and Exalted is He and seeing him beyond the highest place beyond the Lotus Tree by which angels can not pass !
That was the most incredible and knowledgable documentary
So beautiful, so deep, so inspiring..I teared up many times, thank you
