Maisha
[hariri | hariri chanzo]Dominiko wa Guzman alikuwa kanoni wa jimbo la Burgo de Osma-Ciudad de Osma: mwaka 1203 aliongozana na askofu wake Diego wa Acevedo katika safari ya kibalozi kwa niaba ya mfalme Alfonso VIII wa Castilia kwa mfalme Valdemaro II wa Denmark. Wakati wa kurudi, wakipitia mkoa wa Langadoque (Ufaransa Kusini), waling'amua uzushi wa Wakatari ulivyoenea, naye akaamua kuungana na mabalozi wa Papa Inosenti III katika jitihada za kurudisha watu hao katika Kanisa Katoliki.
Akikusanya kundi dogo la wasichana walioacha Ukatari, mwaka 1207 alianzisha huko Notre-Dame-de-Prouille, karibu Fanjeaux, monasteri ya kike ambayo ikawa kitovu cha kazi yake ya kitume.
Dominiko aliendelea kuwahubiri kwa unyenyekevu na amani Wakatari hata baada ya balozi wa Papa Petro wa Castelnau kuuawa (1208), akikataa kujiunga na vita vya msalaba vilivyotangazwa dhidi ya Wakatari.
Kwa msaada wa askofu wa Tolosa Folco, mwaka 1215 alikusanya wenzi kadhaa wenye nia ya kuhubiri kama yeye katika ufukara mkubwa akawaingiza katika maisha ya kitawa. Shirika hilo lilipata kwanza kibali fulani cha Papa Inosenti III halafu kibali rasmi cha mwandamizi wake, Papa Onori III, tarehe 22 Desemba 1216.
Mwenyewe aliwaachia wafuasi wake himizo la kuhudumia jirani kwa sala, masomo na huduma ya Neno la Mungu.
Baada ya hapo Shirika la Ndugu Wahubiri lilienea kati Ulaya nzima, hasa katika miji ambapo vilikuwa vinaanza vyuo vikuu, kama vile vya Bologna na Paris, vilivyosaidiwa sana na Wadominiko kupata ustawi.
Kwa agizo la Mtaguso IV wa Laterano ndugu hao walipaswa kujichagulia kanuni iliyowahi kukubaliwa na Kanisa, wakaamua kushika ile ya Agostino wa Hippo, wakiiongezea katiba ya kwao, maarufu hasa kwa kutumia kiasi fulani cha demokrasia, ambayo ilitumiwa kama mwongozo kwa nyingine hata za kiserikali.
