Abu Said al-Baji, commonly known as Sidi Bousaid (Arabic: سيدي أبو سعيد الباجي; 1231–1156) was a Tunisian Sufi Wali. A disciple of Abu Madyan, he was Abul Hasan ash-Shadhili's teacher during his stay in Tunisia. He likely met with Ibn Arabi during his pilgrimage and few-years stay in Damascus and Mecca.
In January 2013, a fire of criminal origin was set to his shrine. This came only a few days after threats from some Salafists who were demanding that access to the shrine be banned as they consider it to be idolatry practice to visit tombs.
