A chahid (from Arabic: شَهيد ) is, in Algeria, the official title of any person (Algerian or foreign) who fought during the Algerian War in the ranks of the independence movement (mujahid) and who fell on the field of honor or who died as a result of his commitment(martyrs). The chahids are designated in Algeria as "the symbol and pride of the Nation".[1]
