When reading historical texts on the Almoravids they are called the 'veiled' just like todays Imuhagh it sounds quite romantic
but where does their name origin from? because the arabic translation tells us:
The exact meaning of "Murabit" is a matter of controversy. The name may be derived from the Arabic ribat (meaning tie or fortress (a term with which it shares the root r-b-t). This was the common opinion some time ago, however most historians now believe that it refers to ribat, meaning "tied to Horses" (ie ready for battle--Ribat also mentioned in Quran as referring to Jihad)

In Tamazight we can find a close denomination:
// erHed' - eHred'//
Ghdames: Arbed' = mettre le capuchon
Nefousa: Rwot' = se vêtir
Ayt H'didu(Haut-Atlas MA): arebbad' = calotte, bonnet
(y)ir'd' / ir'ed': se vêtir
Rif, Iznassen, Moyen-Atlas, Figig, Mzab, Ouargla, Chenaoua, Menaser, Chaouia, Zwara
