ABD-EL-QADIR (عبد القادر). Variant
spelling of Abd-el-Kadir,
composed of Abd "servant,
slave," Al/El
"the," and Kadir
"able, capable, potent, powerful," hence "servant of the
powerful."
... We have already pointed out how
intimately the subjects of the religious orders and of the shrines
interpenetrate. Both belong to the same world of miracle and magic,
as real to the peasant as the veritable, material earth. The Khudr to whom there are
raised in Syria and Palestine more shrines than to any other wely, is said
to impart the baraka, or miraculous power, to founders of the
orders. The folk-lore of the land abounds in tales of these,
especially Abd-el-Qâdir ej-Jilâni, Ahmed er-Refai,
Ahmed el-Bedawy, and Ibrahim ed-Dusuki, whose names are attached to the
orders respectively founded by each, and who are linked together as the
four poles, living on the four sides of the earth, which they uphold. (The
Religions of Modern Syria and Palestine, Bliss, 1917)
