He is recognised as the father of the Moroccan constitution movement [ar] and the leader of the Conditioned Bay'ah of 1908. He was also vocally opposed to the metastasizing French colonial presence in Morocco, and launched at-Tā'ūn (الطاعون The Plague), the first national newspaper in Morocco. He was a member of the al-Kattani family and the Tariqa Kattania (الطريقة الكتانية), a Sufi order. He composed over 300 works, printed 27 of them, and wrote Sufi philosophical love poetry. He was accused of treason and flogged to death under Sultan Abdelhafid.
