Wezeea () or Thawzeeath, also known as Thamcherateth (), is the term used in Algeria to designate one of the cultural customs in a sufi society observed by the inhabitants of rural areas, especially the Berbers of the Kabylia region. Presentation The Wezeea is not only widespread in the Kabylia region, but rather in the regions of the Aurès and Mozabite people, and elsewhere in the country. They are organized on several occasions and Mawsims, especially in the Ashura celebration, the season of Ramadan, the anniversary of the Mawlid, and the beginning of the plowing season. The disciples slaughter a number of cows, which the families and philanthropists share in buying them, and they share their meat in the end, so that the meat is accessible to all the families of the village. The poor people who do not share in the price of the cows get their share of the meat as well; This makes this habit more a social solidarity than something else and is considered a genuine Algerian cultural heritage. The Sufi orders, especially the Rahmaniyya order, are what contributed to preserving this custom in the Algerian rural community. Practices Since the Wezeea is one of the customs and traditions that the inhabitants of the Kabylia region inherited from grandfathers, the villagers collect money to buy calves or bulls, and the number of bulls sometimes reaches 17 or 20 bulls. If there are many families in the village, the slaughter process takes place on a predetermined day, usually on the day of Friday prayer, then the meat is cut into equal portions according to the number of members of each family, and the meat rations are distributed after that to the families living in the village in equal measure, so that there is no discrimination in the division. After distributing the meat to the families, the preparation process for the harvesting of olives and the demonstration of Tweeza begins, which usually takes place in traditional methods at the end of the autumn season, and the preparation is by cleaning the sides of the olive trees and removing weeds and branches that are useless from them and around them. Wezeea is therefore one of the most important manifestations of solidarity that characterizes the residents of the villages, madashir and neighborhoods of the Kabylia region. It is a solidarity process in addition to being an occasion linked to land and water, where the residents used to approach their Allah Almighty Lord by slaughtering calves and cows and distributing their meat to the poor people seeking help. And now this custom has become associated with the advent of religious occasions and Islamic holidays such as Eid al-Fitr, Qadr Night, and the Mawlid, and some of them hold it to celebrate the Amazigh New Year called Yennayer corresponding to the twelfth of January of each year in the Gregorian calendar.
