Vis-Hadji Zagiev (Atbasar Sheikh) (died in 1973) - a Chechen religious figure, a native of the Wird of Chin-Mirza , one of the Kunta-Haji murids.
Founder of the youngest Kadyrian wird , which spread among the Chechens exiled to Kazakhstan.
Vis-Haji attached great importance to work: Allah obliges to work for the family. Any work should be done with the knowledge that this is for the sake of Allah, excluding the manufacture of tobacco and wine. The teacher forbade women to marry members of another wird. Vis-Hadji introduced the practice of joint dhikr by men and women, which distinguished him from all other Chechen wird [1] .
Due to a number of changes in the ritual part, corresponding to the national spirit, the wird began to be called white hats .
Vis Haji took care of families without breadwinners. He married some of these widows. Only adult murids could marry: girls - from 18 years old, boys - from 20 years old. He arranged marriages for 18-year-old girls and 20-year-old boys, allocating housing and property to the new family. Kalym was not recognized [2] .
