Abstract

The
article examines the role of muridism as an important stateforming ideological element
of Imam Shamil`s theocratic state – the Imamate, during the period of his rule
(1834–1859). It presents key moments of the forming of the ideology of
muridism, its aspects which differentiate it from the Sufi tariqa
Naqshbandiyyia-Khalidiyya and which were used for the establishing of the
Imamate. The article indicates how muridism was adapted to the Caucasian
realities and the confrontation between the Imamate and the Russian empire.
