The representation of religious and magical culture codes is studied using the material of Tabasaran proverbs and sayings. Key concepts realized in the Tabasaran language picture of the world are examined through mythological, religious, magical and ritual performances. It is inferred that a certain group of paremiological units is the result of the synthesis of ancient pagan beliefs and moral and ethical norms of Islam. Similarly in Russian culture, for example, there is also an interaction of pagan beliefs and Christian attitudes about life and death.
