Ahmed Sukayrij or Abu-l-Abbas Ahmed ibn al-Iyyashi Sukayrij al-Khazraji Al-Ansari al-Fasi (1878–1944) was a well known Moroccan Sufi scholar and judge.
[1] He wrote a great number of books, but is especially well known for his voluminous work on the companions of Sidi Ahmad al-Tijani: Kitab kashf al-Hijab ámman talaaqa bi-Shaykh Tijani mina-l As'hab (Raising the veil of the companions who encountered Sheikh Tijani).
The Moroccan jurist and shaykh Ahmad sukayrij was a judge (qadi) according to the Maliki legal school of thought (madhab) for Morocco.
Not only this, but he is placed alongside Ibrahim niasse on one of the major shaykhs of the tijani Tariqah.
The shaykh wrote around 160 books which includes a 20,000 line Nazm on suyuuti's “Khasā’is al kubra” and a 500 line nazm on both a busiri's qasidah burdah and Qadi Iyad’s book “shifa”.
