He is therefore a Jazuli of the Sufi order and of the second class in it, as there is only one intermediary between him and the founder of the order, Sheikh Sidi Muhammad bin Suleiman al-Jazuli. Rather, Sidi Rahhal is considered one of the pioneers of this order and its first great poles, in asceticism, fame, and many followers, and the position of pole leadership in the Jazuli order, succeeding his Sheikh Abdulaziz al-Ba’a, the inheritor of the state of Sheikh al-Jazuli

[and] holiness", and who is specifically "chosen by God and endowed with exceptional gifts, such as the ability to work miracles." [2]
