The Jaririya is a Sufi order and one of the largest Sufi orders in North Sinai, Egypt. It is named for its founder, Sheikh Eid Abu Jarir, a member of the Sawarka tribe's Jarira clan, who established the order in Sinai in the 1940s near the clan's home around Bir al-Abed. The order maintains roughly 130 affiliated mosques in Egypt and traces its own spiritual lineage through other Sufi traditions.
