  ADW: Muridae: Information
Murid fur may be long or short, and ranges from soft to spiny in texture.
There are terrestrial, arboreal, and fossorial murids, nocturnal, diurnal, and crepuscular murids, territorial, sedentary, migratory, and nomadic murids, social, colonial, and solitary murids, and murids with strict dominance hierarchies.
Murids tend to have neutral-colored coats that blend in with the natural backgrounds of their habitats, affording them some degree of camouflage.

  Murid at AllExperts
A Murid (Arabic: مريد ; a term which means "willpower" or "self-esteem," and is one of the 99 names of Allah (الله) also known as a Salik (Arabic: سالك), is an initiate into the mystic philosophy of Sufism.
Before initiation a Murid is guided and taught by a Murshid or Pir who must first accept the initiate as his or her disciple.
The murid is invested in the cloak of the order upon initiation, having progressed through a series of increasingly difficult and significant tasks on the path of mystical development.

In Daghestan there are also murids of the Naqshbandi Shaikh Muhammad Nazim al-Qubrusi (the Cypriot), who lives in Lefke in North Cyprus, the student of a shaikh of Avar origin, Abdullah Dagestani, who spent most of his life in Syria.
We can certainly assume that it is the close connection of murids with their shaikhs that is the basis of the strong adherence of Daghestan’s population to its traditions and to its religious practice.
Together with the khalif and a group of his murids we visited the mausoleum in the village of Kazanishche belonging to the prominent Naqshbandi Shaikh Abu Ahmad (Abdurahman) al-Sughuri (from Sogratl’), one of the predecessors of Shaikh Muhammad Nazim in the Silsilah and father of the fourth Daghestani Imam, who headed the uprising of 1877.

And then, according to this, every murid is given certain tasks for the whole period of learning and corresponding parts of the teachings.
That is, murids develop not only ethically, intellectually, psycho-energetically: they also master the methods, the secrets of their sheikh’s craft or art.
As the murid goes through all steps of this stage, he or she develops a strong desire to attain the unity with the Creator and enters the state of rida.

As was their custom, wherever there were a dozen Murid disciples, the first impulse was to set up a Dayira (worship and community help association).
Realizing the Murid community had grown strong in the US, Serigne Mourtalla, not wanting the disciples to pray and meet only when he was visiting, asked the leaders to start a non-profit association to assist in organizing the Murids.
Following the tradition of Murid initiatives on behalf of Islam (see Serigne Boussra Samb's article about the Mosque of Touba), the obstacles were numerous to complete construction of the House of Islam.

 the striped mouse
However, whereas most of these studies have been performed with large mammals such as primates, carnivores and ungulates, the majority of mammals are rodents, most of them belonging to the family Muridae.
The striped mouse is a diurnal murid rodent with an adult body weight of about 30 to a maximum of 80 g.
Although striped mice go alone for foraging, they live in groups of 1-4 breeding females, 1 breeding male and their offspring of both sexes, which remain even after reaching adulthood in their natal group, leading to groups of more than 20 adult individuals.

The compositional distributions of coding sequences and DNA molecules (in the 50-100-kb range) are remarkably narrower in murids (rat and mouse) compared to humans (as well as to all other mammals explored so far).
A comparison of homologous coding sequences from murids and humans revealed that their different compositional distributions are due to differences in GC levels in all three codon positions, particularly of genes located at both ends of the distribution.
When GC levels at first + second codon positions and third codon positions, respectively, of murid genes are plotted against corresponding GC levels of homologous human genes, linear relationships (with very high correlation coefficients and slopes of about 0.78 and 0.60, respectively) are found.

Murid nuclear genomes are more homogeneous in GC content than those of most mammals, which leads to the question of how such important compositional changes have accumulated.
For this, we used the four-species approach: GC changes between human and murids were compared to the frequencies of synonymous differences, measured between two independent species without GC change (bovine and pig), by using orthologous genes common to all four species.
We report three conclusions: (1) Among genes with little GC change, 60% of the variability of synonymous substitution frequencies is explained by the gene-specific rate component.

 The Background of Chechen Independence Movement II: The Sufi Resistance
It is impossible to study the conflict in Chechnya without casting a glance at the times of the Murids.
The first significant Murid leader was Sheikh Mansur (1732-1794), who was chosen by the elders in 1785 to be the first imam of the North Caucasians.
While the time of the Murids from Mansur to Imam Shamil is known as the "Great Gazavat", the shorter but more intensive resistance war is known as the "Little Gazavat", and it was fought during the Russo-Turkish War in 1877-1878.

There are two categories of conduct of the murid with his shaikh: internal conduct and external conduct.
As the sick person gives himself to his doctor to be cured, so too does the murid, sick in his conduct and behavior, submit to the shaikh’s experience in order to be healed.
The murid must be sincere and loyal to the company of his shaikh.

 Initial sequence of the chimpanzee genome and comparison with the human genome : Nature
The normalized rates of amino-acid-altering substitutions in the hominid lineages are elevated relative to the murid lineages, but close to that seen for common human polymorphisms, implying that positive selection during hominid evolution accounts for a smaller fraction of protein divergence than suggested in some previous reports.
To facilitate comparison with the murid lineage, we also compiled a set of 7,043 human, chimpanzee, mouse and rat genes with unambiguous 1:1:1:1 orthology and high-quality sequence alignments (Supplementary Table S24).
In contrast to the murids, however, hominids appear to experience substantially weaker negative selection; this probably reflects their smaller population size.

Around 1325 living species of murid rodents have been described, making the Muridae by far the largest family of mammals -- but surely many more remain to be discovered.
Murid species are currently placed in 281 genera, which are distributed among 17 subfamilies (for a brief description of each subfamily, click here).

 Sufism In chechnya
In the beginning it was a purely individual experience based on the personal relationship between the disciple, or murid, and his master, variously called sheikh, murshid, pir, ustad, or ishan.
The final defeat of muridism in 1859 and the subsequent massive migration of the Caucasian Muslims to Turkey did not destroy the Naqshbandiya in Daghestan and Chechnia; its roots had spread too wide and deep.
On 18 January 1864 some 4,000 murids who had gathered in the village of Shali were dispersed by gunfire; 200 of them were killed, about 1,000 were wounded, and many were arrested and deported.

His uprising in Daghestan was suppressed in 1925, but the Soviets, branding the Sufis "bandits," "criminals" and "counter-revolutionaries," continued to arrest, execute and deport the "zikrists" almost up to the outbreak of WWII.
The brotherhoods braved the crackdown as they always had: the shaykhs disappeared deep into the mountains, the murids organized their zikr assemblies in private homes, and the orders ensured their secrecy through the double bond of spiritual initiation and tight-knit clan loyalty.

The murids at Ghimri, standing out from the other mountaineers by their fl banners, and the absence of any trace of gold or silver on their clothes and weapons, marched out behind Ghazi Mollah, chanting the Murid battle-cry: La ilaha illaLlah.
Their first target was the aoul of Andee, which was submissive towards the Russians; but so impressive were the Murids that at the very sight of their silent ranks the formerly treacherous village submitted without a fight.
The officers were soon all killed, and the six hundred men, their backs against the cliff, were left trapped by the Murids in the knowledge that exhaustion and exposure would finish them off before dawn.
