Naming
What's Behind the Name?

  • Sufi: a follower of Sufism, symbolizing the seeker of divine knowledge and spiritual enlightenment.
  • Tijan: representing a follower of the Tariqa Tijaniya and its sacred teachings.
  • The blending of 'Sufi' and 'Tijan,' along with the letters 'F' and 'T,' highlights the harmony between Sufism and the Tijaniya path. Together, they create 'SuFijan' a name that signifies unity, purpose, and the journey of spiritual discovery.
