Editing Mouride (section)

===Influence outside Senegal===
The brotherhood has a sizable representation in certain large cities in Europe and the United States. Most of these cities with a large Senegalese [[Immigration|immigrant]] population have a ''Keur Serigne Touba'' (Residence of the Master of Touba), a seat for the community which accommodates meetings and prayers while also being used as a provisional residence for newcomers. In [[Paris]] and [[New York City]], a number of the Mouride followers are small-scale street merchants. They often send money back to the brotherhood leaders in Touba.

In 2004 Senegalese musician [[Youssou N'Dour]] released his [[Grammy Award for Best Contemporary World Music Album|Grammy Award]] winning album ''[[Egypt (album)|Egypt]]'', which documents his Mouride beliefs and retells the story of Amadou Bamba and the Mouridiya. His intent was devotional, and the album was received that way in the West, but local some Mourides mistook "Egypt" for pop music using Islamic prayers, and initially expressed displeasure, which frustrated Youssou.
