Abu Abdillah Muhammad ibn Nasir al-Dar'i al-Aghlani (b. Ramadan 1011/February 1603 – d. 1085/1674) was a scholar, Sufi, theologian and physician born in the village of Aghlan in the Dar'a valley of southern Morocco. Trained under the Shadhili master Abdallah ibn Husayn al-Tamgruti, he took over the zawiya of Tamegroute in the 1640s, making it a major centre of learning, and consolidated the Nasiriyya, an influential branch of the Shadhiliyya. He died in 1085/1674 and was buried in the Nasiriyya zawiya at Tamegroute (Zagora), a renowned place of visitation famed for its rich manuscript library. There is no dispute over the burial; the zawiya building was originally founded in 983/1575 by Amr ibn Ahmad al-Ansari and only renamed Nasiriyya after Ibn Nasir.
