Muhammad-Amin Asiyalav or Naib Emin Pasha (Adyghe: Наиб Мыхьэмэд Амин, romanized: Naib Mıhəməd Amin; Avar: МухIаммад Амин Асиялав; Turkish: Naib Emin Paşa; 1818 – 8 April 1901) was a North Caucasian military commander and Islamic preacher[2] of Avar origin who served as the 4th leader of the Circassian Confederation from 1848 to 1859. He was one of the Circassian leaders in the Russo-Circassian War and the third naib of Imam Shamil.[3][4][5][6][7]
His era was marked with various reforms in industry, diplomacy, military, administration, religious issues and more. He gradually removed slavery, strictly banned social classes, built schools and small factories.[8]
