خلاصة:
This article will examine the contexts and causes of the migration of Chechen and Circassian tribes to Syria; the expansionist policy of the Russians in Muslim-populated areas of the North Caucasus and the Black Sea coasts and the occupation of these areas in 1281 AH displaced many groups of Circassian and Chechen Muslims. The Ottoman government, which was engaged with the Russians, settled a number of refugees in areas of Syria between 1296-1327 AH with the aim of employing them in economic, political and military activities. These refugees, with the support of the Ottoman government, founded a city of this name near the Zarqa River, and in addition to helping to boost the economic and commercial prosperity of the region, they provided valuable services to the Ottoman forces in World War I. After the war, they also made Zarqa a haven for independence seekers, and some were killed on the path to Jordanian independence.

The information provided by Shishani regarding the migration of Chechens and Circassians, their settlement in Zarqa, the events of the years 1320-1345 AH, and events related to World War I, as well as the independence of Arab countries, especially Jordan and Syria, is very valuable (Ibid.

Result Between the years 1296-1327 AH, the Ottoman government settled a number of displaced Circassian and Chechen people, whose lands in the North Caucasus had been occupied by the expansionist policies of the Russians, in various parts of Syria.
