N2 - From the middle of the fifth century, Almoravids became powerful with religious claims in Fareast Maghreb (Moroccan). Their internal and external policies for managing the country was based on Maliki religion. In addition to preventing other religions’ activity, Almoravids confronted Taşawwuf which had an important social status in that land and stopped their activities. The present study by examining Almoravid’s approach regarding Taşawwuf in Moroccan intends to answer the question of what were the causes and factors of their confrontation policy with Taşawwuf? Findings indicate that the spread of Taşawwuf in the Moroccan could endanger Almoravids authority. Therefore, they pursued a dual policy to control and prevent the spread of Taşawwuf. In the first step, Almoravids suppressed a part of the Ṣufis by religious accusations such as heresy and opposition to the Shari'a, and in the second step by approaching the Ṣufyya tried to restrain them.
