Abstract

This article describes the manner in which the Italians dealt with the problem of an Islamic society which was bot a religious association and a political organization, the Sanusiya order of Sufis in Cyrenaica; or, rather, it describes their treatment of one of the many facets of this complex problem, the religious endowments of the order. It was a problem which very European power has had to face when it has conquered Muslim lands; the same problem which, in many different forms, the French and British have had to solve in their North African and Near Eastern possessions.
