Shamil's regiments played a primary role in the activation of the national independence movement of the Western Circassians during the period of the Caucasian-Russian War. Shamil, who established a military-theocratic state (imamate), continued to expand the northern Caucasian independence movement, and tried to spread the regents there in Circassia. The first attempt was made by Hac？ Muhammed and Süleyman Efendi in 1842-1846. The main reason for the failure of the attempts of the Shari'ah to spread by Naips was that it meant the disruption of the deep-seated traditions of Circassians
