Özet: Orientalist scholars claim the existence of a reform movement in the Islamic world in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries based on the concepts and issues put forward by the ulamas and Sufis of that time. This article discusses, concerning that claim, the concepts of neo-Sufism and Tariqat al-Muhammadiyya through the Tijaniyya, Idrisiyya and Sanusiyya orders. Although it does not question and comprehensively analyzed the validity of the reform debates, the article stands as a starting point paving the way for the studies following a similar set of questions on the issue.
