بين المقدس الديني والطابو الاجتماعي: رؤية بنيوية لممارسة التبرك بالصالحين

Abstract EN

When it comes to research into practices and religious rituals, it will be inspired by the Socio-anthropological theory, although it is a concrete and visible aspect of a purely religious phenomenon.

Moreover, any subject of religious practice will not be devoid of analysis of religion, piousness, myth, and especially the sacred and the ritual, which are at the bottom of society and reflect its nature.

In the course of this process, the Holy is revealed as a ritual that has a religious reference and at the same time a social presence in the society itself and in a communicative way within a single culture.

A ritual that reflects the religiosity and religious practice in Algerian society is the loyalty to the maraboo and their blessing to become a recurrent social phenomenon.

As for their treatment, the theoretical views of the structural trend will be invoked as the most theoretical in terms of methodology and techniques and familiarity with the theoretical principles.

It will appear as a cultural behavior that expresses a mythical, sacred state shared by individuals who flee to it in most of their stages of life while being subjected to social taboo.
