Mohamed Bachir El Ibrahimi (Arabic:محمد بشير الإبراهيمي): (1889-1965 AD) (1306 AH-1385 AH), was one of the leading figures of thought and literature in the Arab world, and one of the scholars in Algeria. He is the companion of the struggle of the Sheikh, Abdelhamid ben Badis, in leading the Algerian reformist movement, then his successor in the Association of Scholars, and a writer who adopted the ideas of liberating Arab peoples from colonialism and freeing minds from ignorance and superstition.

Early Life

He is Muhammad Bachir ben Muhammad al-Sa’di bin Omar bin Muhammad al-Sa’di ben Abdullah ben Omar al-Ibrahimi. Born on Thursday 14 Shawwal 1306 AH, 13 June, 1889, in Ouled Brahim (currently a municipality of the Ras Al-Wadi District - Bourj state, algeria, algeria). He received his first education from his father and uncle, so he memorized the Qur’an, and studied some texts in jurisprudence and language in Ras al-Wadi.

His scientific and literary career

He left Algeria in 1911, joining his father, who had preceded him to the Hijazia, and continued his education in the city, and got acquainted with the Arab Sheikh Tepsi when he visited Medina in 1913, and left Hijaz in 1916 heading to Damascus, where he worked as a teacher, and participated During the founding of the Academic Academy, one of its aims was the Arabization of government administrations, and there he met with the scholars and writers of Damascus, whom he mentioned thirty years after his return to Algeria, and from that what he wrote: “I have lived among those honorable companions for only a little four years, and I honestly bear witness that it is the Green Oasis. In my arid life, and it is the fullest part of my overwhelming life, and I do not lie to God, for I am well-groomed by my scientific work in this country (Algeria), But ... He is one of whom I have an open heart and companions like those companions; Oh, may God protect the era of Damascus, Al-Fayhaa, and the open spaces were abundant and watered, and what was poured into it was emptied into it, for how many councils we had in it in which we circulated literature and talk about the parties of scientific... ”

In 1920, Brahimi left Damascus to Algeria, and began his call for reform and the spread of religious education in the city of Setif, where he called for the establishment of a free mosque (not affiliated with the government administration). In 1924, ben Badis visited him and offered him the idea of establishing the Association of Scholars, and after the establishment of the Society, Brahimi was chosen as its vice president, and he was delegated by the association to a task that was said to be difficult at the time, which is to spread reform in western Algeria, in the city of Oran, as it was considered a fortified stronghold of the Tariqi Sufis, so he initiated that and began building free schools, and was lecturing everywhere he reached, helped by his speech and literary prowess, and his activity extended to Tlemcen, which many consider the oasis of Arab culture in western Algeria. The hostile groups of politicians and Sufis arose have submitted petitions to the French governor seeking the deportation of Sheikh Brahimi, but the sheikh continued his activity, and this is how Arab schools emerged in Oran.

In 1939 he wrote an article in the newspaper "Al-Islah"(Reformation) , which France banished him to the desert town of Aflou. After the death of Ibn Badis, he was elected president of the Association of Scholars while he was still in exile. He was only released in 1943, then he was arrested a second time in 1945, and released a year later. . In 1947, the Journal of Insights returned to its publication, and Brahimi's articles in it were a measure of eloquence, frankness and harsh criticism of France and what he called agents of France. He says about the leaders of political parties:

Among its opponents (the association) are the men of political parties from our people, including individuals and parties that oppose it whenever they run with their whims, they disagree. The nation and its money extorting so I opposed them.

He was one of the defenders of the Arabic language. In “Insights,” he says: “The Arabic language in the Algerian country is neither strange nor extraneous. Rather, it is in its home and among its mother-in-law and supporters, and it is rooted with the past, deepening ties with the present, long-serving in the future.” "Insights" focused on defending the Palestinian cause. Brahimi wrote several articles about it.

Brahimi lived until the independence of Algeria, and pray with prayer in the Ketchawa mosque, which had been converted into a church, but he was not satisfied with the direction that the country began to head to after independence; In 1964, he issued a statement in which he stated: "The theoretical foundations on which they reside their actions must emanate from the core of our Arab-Islamic roots and not from foreign doctrines."

He was said that he had a strong memory, as Sheikh Ali Al-Tantawi mentioned that he had driven a car with him from Damascus to Jerusalem to attend a conference on Palestine, and Al-Tantawi said that I did not mention a house to him except he mentioned the poem and what he said to me, so that he began to hear the articles of the Sheikh that he was writing in Al-Risala magazine, When Sheikh Al-Tantawi was surprised that he had memorized the prose as well, he replied that he had not deliberately memorized it, but rather he was preserving everything that falls under his sight.

The da`wa in France (Islamic Dawa)

Brahimi followed the association’s centers and branches in France, and it was the first Islamic center in Europe, which was disrupted by the world war. In 1947, the society sent its general observer, Sheikh Saeed Salehi, to France to "study conditions and smooth things out." It even included college students in France from Algeria.
