Abstract

Abstract: The present study aims to try to diagnose the real reality of the phenomenon of visiting the sanctuaries of the just saints as a socio-cultural phenomenon that characterizes societies in the Arab Maghreb, by trying to discover the real causes that supported the pursuit of this social behavior, in light of the changes taking place in the political, economic and even social and cultural contexts of these societies, especially since these phenomena have been widely criticized in recent times, which has called for their disappearance. Faced with this inconsistency between the attempts to reproduce this phenomenon and the calls for its disappearance, the present study revealed, by its adoption of the descriptive method, that the continuation of the phenomenon of the visit of the tombs of the just saints and their expansion affect in general the poor districts of the Maghreb societies because of many interdependent and branched factors, all the more that there are sides It has an influence in its interests to maintain the sanctity of the just saints in the spirit of the people of these societies in order to implement their programs and preserve their political status and economic interests.
