Béni-oui-oui

Derogatory term for Muslims

Béni-oui-oui was a derogatory term for Muslims considered to be collaborators with the French colonial institutions in North Africa during the period of French rule. French administrators in Algeria relied heavily on Muslim intermediaries in their dealings with the indigenous population and many of these cadis, tax collectors or other tribal authorities were considered by nationalists to be mere rubber stamps and incapable of independent initiative.
