Darou Salam (2016)

Italy, a crucial passage land of migration from Africa, has become a kind of ‘pilot test’ for Europe’s policies and social dynamics on migration, bringing to the fore the limits of European societies. Lately, extreme right and xenophobic groups have met high popular consensus. Violence against migrants has risen. Italy is going through a series of racist episodes targeting Muslims and black people, and has experienced several racially motivated murders (Florence 2011; Rome 2017; Florence, Macerata and Vibo-Valentia 2018). The Senegalese community has been particularly affected.
The Senegalese began to arrive in Italy in the mid-1980s, when France was making migration of people from its former colonies particularly difficult. Today, the Senegalese constitute one of the most important migrant communities in Italy, connected through the Muridiyya religion.
Founded in Senegal at the end of the nineteenth century by Amadou Bamba, a mystic and intellectual leader, the Muridiyya brotherhood is a Sufi Muslim organization that stresses self-help and hard work. Initially, the Muridiyya was a ‘peaceful response’ to the disastrous effects of French colonialism. Soon it became an influential political and social movement, acting as the main political, economic, and spiritual connecting space for the communities at home and in diaspora. The brotherhood has a considerable following in the US and Europe, where disciples often work as street vendors.
Darou Salam (House of Peace, in Wolof) portraying the Muridiyya brotherhood living in Ladispoli. Darou Salam is the name of the Ladispoli’s Dahira. The Muridiyya’s activities revolve around the Daara, a Madrasa around which the brotherhood organizes its social and spiritual structure, where the marabout and the disciples live together, study the Koran, and work the cultivable soils. In a migratory context, the Daara becomes the Dahira, the main unit around which the Muridiyya community in diaspora organizes its life. The Ladispoli’s Dahira, a town close to Rome, is important in Italy. During the Gran Magal, the annual celebration commemorating Bamba’s return to Senegal after his exile from Gabon (1923), thousands of devoted Murid arrive from several parts of Italy to pray and enjoy time together. The Ladispoli’s Dahira has become an example of inter-religious reception and solidarity, giving support to all migrants by filling the spaces left unattended by Italian institutions.



The Dahira is located in the outskirts of Ladispoli (Rome). The Dahira hosts Cheick Moustapha Mbacké and his family. The Cheick is a direct descendant of Serign Ahmadou Bamba, founder of the Muridiyya brotherhood in the 19th Century.
