How to incite a new religious war in the North Caucasus?
According to official information, Sheikh Saeed Afandi al-Chirkavi (Chirkei) was mortally wounded after a bomb exploded in the house by a suicide bomber who had entered the sheikh under the guise of a pilgrim. Her name was even reported: Alla Saprykina, who at one time adopted Islam and became Aminat Kurbanova. Allegedly, she committed such a high-profile crime as a terrorist act in the house of a respected spiritual leader in retaliation for the fact that the security forces had recently killed her husband - a representative of the Dagestan gang underground.
However, not everyone believed the official information in Dagestan. Already at the funeral of Said Afandi, where, according to some information, more than 70 thousands of people gathered, the first words were said that not only lonely terrorists, let's say so small spills, but representatives of much greater power had to do with the death of the spiritual leader. And the task of this force was not so much to remove Sheikh Said Afandi, but to use this murder in order to once again confront the representatives of various currents of Islam living on the multinational Dagestan land.
The fact is that Said Afandi has recently gained real fame in terms of finding ways of reconciliation for representatives of the so-called "pure Islam" - Salafis - with representatives of traditional Islam. It is known that thanks to the educational activities of the Sheikh, many representatives of Salafism, who in their radical manifestation closely approached Wahhabism with all the ensuing consequences, became more tolerant of representatives of other Islamic movements. This educational activity helped to substantially smooth out the religious confrontation in Dagestan, which 10-15 had literally tore the republic apart years ago.
If we take into account the fact that the religious base in the North Caucasus in general and in Dagestan in particular has an enormous social meaning and is often the main tool for regulating social relations, then it can be assumed that, indeed, Said Afandi’s activities could be like bone in throat It should not be forgotten that the authority of the sheikh was so high in the republic that thousands and thousands of residents of Dagestan called themselves direct followers of Said Afandi. This means that Muslims who remain without their spiritual leader, who adhere to the classical forms of Islam, can already weapon in order to take revenge on the killers. And for those who launched a suicide bomber into the house of the sheikh, that is exactly what is needed. It turns out that the attack could have been organized for the incitement of religious hatred on the land of an already long-suffering and restless North Caucasian republic.
If we talk about the evil intent of the suicide bomber Aminat Kurbanova, then he really could be, but only at the level of intent, excuse me, stoned to the new believer, who with the help of notorious methods were convinced that she must avenge the death of her husband and become a martyr . In other words, Kurbanov (Saprykin), if he was used, then went to his death, naturally, not on his own behalf, but at the instigation of those who pursued far more global goals of killing an authoritative Muslim spiritual leader.
True, with this terrorist Kurbanova there is one more discrepancy. If we analyze all the messages that came to light in the past six months by official law enforcement officials, it turns out that Kurbanov (Saprykin) explodes himself only in the last year, at least for the second time ... At the beginning of May 2012, there were reports Aminat Kurbanova as a recruiter drove the suicide bomber Muslimat Aliyeva to the Alaska-30 police post in the Dagestan capital, after which the car went off the air - an explosive device went off, causing Kur Banova and Aliyev died. The fact of the death of Kurbanova was recorded by law enforcement officials.
It turns out that either in that blasted car was not at all Kurbanova, or not at all Kurbanova committed a terrorist attack in the house of Sheikh Afandi. It’s not necessary to speak about the coincidence of the names of two different terrorists, because in both cases the Dagestan policemen published photos of the same person ...
If even about the name of the suicide bomber, questions arise, then it is possible to discuss the motives of Kurbanova for a long time. Once again, it should be noted that Kurbanov (Saprykin) (if sheikh was in the house) was used as a commonplace tool for solving large-scale tasks. And there could be only one major task here: once again to kindle a fire of destabilization in Dagestan also on a religious basis.
It is worth noting that Sheikh Said Afandi, many called one of the main ideologues of preventing the recruitment of Dagestan youth into militants. Sheikh directly opposed the care of local young people, as they say, into the forest, which could have been one of the reasons for such a resonant crime. Thanks to his intelligence and authority, Said Afandi was able to find points for the consolidation of representatives of various religious movements of Islam in Dagestan, but it was this activity that clearly crossed the interests of those for whom Dagestan in a state of incessant war is presented as a kind and very profitable business. At the same time, such forces realize that today political slogans in Dagestan can attract far from everyone, but the escalation of violence on religious grounds is a real public bomb that can split the population of the republic into parts.
In this regard, we can say that today Dagestan is in an extremely difficult situation. People who were spiritually close to Sheikh Said Afandi, obviously, they themselves are eager to find and punish the real customers of the murder. But here any manifestation of revenge will entail new conflicts not only with radicals, but even with those Salafis who, thanks to the activities of the sheikh, decided to compromise with representatives of traditional Islam. On the other hand, attempts to contain emotions within themselves and their community may give rise to new crimes on the part of those who sponsor radical organizations and the forays of their representatives. By the way, these same people may even be located not on the territory of Russia. As you know, there are plenty of people willing to make a huge powder keg from the Caucasus in order to split off the North Caucasus territories from Russia.
It is necessary to recall that not so long ago an attempt was made on the mufti of Tatarstan, as well as on his deputy, Valiulu Yakupov, who (Yakupov) died from injuries.
Can these crimes against respected Islamic confessors in different regions of the country be called links of one chain? Full After all, it is obvious that terrorism, no matter what ideals of religious or national purity, it hides behind, actually has one goal - the desire of certain forces to reach power and financial leverage using methods based on bloodshed and ideological enmity.
In this regard, the attempts of the Dagestani security officials to “quickly find” the perpetrators of the murder of Sheikh Said Afandi, to reassure the people of Dagestan, are understandable. True, in this case, the haste of the law enforcement officers has already managed to play a cruel joke (on the occasion of Aminat Kurbanova’s two lives) and led to a complete distrust of the republic’s public affairs bodies.
There were even calls by the Dagestan president to form religious squads (by the way, somewhere we heard something similar recently) and on our own to try to resist lawlessness. It turns out that even Magomedsalam Magomedov, who a priori should rely on representatives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the republic, speaks of some dubious formations, called upon to establish order on the basis of his charter. Strange words ... At this rate, our country is finally turning into a country of warriors (Orthodox, Muslim, etc.) who, in the opinion of certain individuals, will be better able to cope with the control over the situation in the country and the observance of religious and legal norms. Is this not the shortest way to social chaos, which is imposed by opponents of the unity of Russian peoples and faiths? .. Wasn’t this goal pursued by the customers of the murder of Sheikh Said Afandi? ..
