He served as qadi of Fez, president of the Rabat appeals court (1928) and minister of justice (from 1938), resigned in protest and was exiled; in 1953 he refused to sign the deposition of Muhammad V or give allegiance to Ibn Arafa, and was exiled to Tiznit and tortured in his old age. After independence he became minister of the Crown and adviser to Muhammad V, resigned in 1960, campaigned against the 1962 constitution, and died at Fez in 1964; he is buried at his birthplace.",

    "note": "FLAGGED for a founder ruling. The readings: (1) Sunni — the Arabic biography's category filings place him among Moroccan Sunni scholars and Sunni jurists, but no biography text names Sunni Islam, or any school of law, for the man himself, and Wikidata gives Islam in general; Morocco's Maliki system and his Qarawiyyin curriculum (the Maliki manuals of his schooling) are milieu and syllabus, which never count. (2) Sufi — in his youth he was an important figure of the Darqawiyya of Midghara, initiated under Shaykh Ahmad al-Badawi and recognised as his successor (the Arabic biography, sourcing the claim to the Markaz al-Jounaid study; the same article's narrative of that phase carries impossible Hijri years and is treated as corrupted in detail), but he then renounced the tariqa path under Abu Shu'ayb al-Dukkali's influence and became the leading figure of Morocco's national Salafiyya, famous for cutting down a tree the people of Fez sought blessings from — so neither a final tariqa affiliation nor a school is attested for the man he settled as being. Held unknown with both readings preserved, per the doubt rule.",
