In mid-February 2016 the Caucasian Muslims Office (CMO) appointed new Cadi - Musa Gasimov in the village of Nardaran. According to an elder of the village Hajiaga Nuriyev, Gasimov was formerly a qadi in the settlement of Pirallahi in Sabunchu.
Thereafter, the State Committee for Work with Religious Organizations said that in Nardaran is only one religious community, and appointed qadi will appoint his representatives (mutavalli) in the local mosque.
Until now, residents Nardaran did not recognize and ignored such appointment of Baku, and several independent religious communities functioned in the village.
As for the community, "Rahima Khanum", it is one of the oldest in the country and covers the inhabitants of the village of Nardaran near Baku. Members of the community are Shiites and admirers of the grave of Rahima Khanum - sister of Imam Reza - one of the 12 Muslim imams. Fleeing persecution in the Middle Ages, Rahima Khanum’s family moved from the Middle East in Nardaran, and here she was buried.-03B-
