In Ingushetia, two blood enemies reconciled

In Ingushetia, during the national Mawlid in honour of the birthday of the Prophet Muhammad, two residents of Nazran announced their refusal of blood feud. During the past year, more than 50 blood enemies were reconciled in Ingushetia.

Islamic countries traditionally celebrate the birthday of the Prophet Muhammad on the 12th day of the third month of the Islamic lunar calendar (Hijra). This year, the celebration was held on January 3.

On January 3, the ceremony of reconciliation of Mukharbek and Abo Iliev, residents of the villages of Ali-Yurt and Guli, who were in the state of blood feud for 13 years, took place at the central mosque of Nazran, and it was attended by Ingush leader Yunus-Bek Evkurov, Mufti Issa-Khadji Khamkhoev, and imams from all over the republic.

The blood feud is a universal custom of revenge for murder, wound, injury, insult, or seizure of land typical for pre-state life.

The former blood enemies have admitted that their decision on reconciliation was affected by members of the Commission for Reconciliation, imams of mosques, and public figures.

According to Kharon Torshkhoev, the Assistant and Adviser to the Ingush leader on national and religious relations, due to the Commission for Reconciliation, in Ingushetia, within the period from early 2014 till mid-December 2014, more than 50 families declined blood feud.
