Zawiyet Sidi Amar Cherif

[4][5] The zawiya is considered a prominent religious teacher for teaching the Quran and its basic rulings to young people.

[9][10][11] It is a place to study and teach the Quran, as well as providing aid to the needy and those about to get married and organizing circumcision ceremonies.

[24][25] The looting and sacking of the farm bordering the Khachna Massif could not leave the belligerents in a situation of calm and ceasefire.

Therefore, General Damrémont took advantage of this Algerian attack to raise the military forces stationed in Algiers under the direction of General Perregaux and Colonel Schauenburg to organize a punitive expedition against the Kabyles of the tribes of Beni Aïcha, Issers and Amraoua among the Iflissen Lebhar.

[26] The Zawiyet Sidi Amar Cherif participated in unveiling the lure of peace with the French colonizers, who rushed at this opportunity to try to attack the Kabyles, starting 17 May 1837, which ended in failure on the bank of Oued Isser due to bad weather and ignorance of the escarpment of the hills of the Col des Beni Aïcha.
