Abū ʿAbd Allāh Muḥammad ibn Muḥammad ibn Muḥammad ibn al-Ḥusayn ibn Nāṣir, better known as Ibn Nāṣir al-Darʿī, was a Moroccan jurist, linguist and bibliophile. He is among the most influential figures of Moroccan Sufism, and is considered the renovator of the Shādhiliyya tariqa. He is credited with consolidating the scholarly influence of the zaouïa of Tamegroute, of which he took leadership in 1052 AH (1642 CE). An ancient and rare manuscript, unpublished, containing the responses of an eminent sheikh; this text drew the attention of Sheikh Muhammad ibn Abi al-Qasim al-Sanhaji as well as Sheikh al-Sanusi.

Manuscript from the library of the Zaouïa Nassiriya in Tamegroute, in the eastern part of the Moroccan Sahara.
