Born on 12 December 1942 in Grozny in Checheno-Ingush ASSR, he spent his childhood and youth in the village of Chulaktau, Kazakh ASSR, as a result of the deportation of the Chechens and Ingush in 1944. In 1960, Maksharip, together with his family, returned to Grozny. In 1962 he entered the Faculty of History and Philology of the Chechen-Ingush State Pedagogical Institute, from which he graduated in 1967 and began teaching at a school in the village of Plievo. From 1968 to 1991, Maksharip worked at the Chechen-Ingush Scientific and Research Institute of History, Language and Literature [ru]. In 1988, Maksharip was appointed the head of the History Department of Chechen-Ingush State University. In 1990, he achieved the title of professor. From 1994 to 1998 Maksharip directed the Ingush Research Institute for the Humanities named after Chakh Akhriev.

In 1969 his first work, which was about the mountainous Assa basin of Ingushetia, was published. In 1972 Maksharip defended his candidate thesis on the topic "Medieval material culture of mountainous Ingushetia (13th – 17th centuries)"; in 1987 Maksharip defended his doctoral thesis on the topic "Medieval Cult Monuments of the Central Caucasus", becoming the first Ingush to achieve the title of doctor of historical sciences.
