He was interested in Sufism so he made a spiritual journey to Fez Morocco in 1171/1757 to study three tariqats; the Qadiriyah, Nashiriyah and Ahmad bin al-Habib Muhammad tarekat. Then to other cities such as Algeria, Cairo, Mecca and Medina and met with several sheikhs including Sheikh Mahmud al-Karoli and Sheikh Abd. Karim al-Sama (Samaniyah). These sheikhs contributed significantly to al-Tinjani's interactions in the tarekat movement. After Ahmad Tijani's meeting with Sheikh Ahmad bin Abdullah al-Hindi, a Shaykh from India in Mecca at the age of 37, he then went to Medina and met Sheikh Muhammad al-Samman, the founder of the Sammaniyah order.
