I suspect you do not have the skills which are needed to install
ClamAV safely on your system.  ClamAV is, after all, a product
intended to improve security.

*Response: Obviously, else I would not have sought help from this forum.*

It is not usual to do the very common build steps

./configure
make
make test

as root.  You would normally do those steps while logged in as an
ordinary user, probably in a directory beneath that user's home, e.g.

~/src/clamav-0.100.0

and only use the root account after the build to perform the step

make install

Kali is a Debian derivative.  Have you considered looking for a Debian
package, or asking the sources of help for Kali?

What is your reason for installing ClamAV on Linux?

*Response: I use msfvenom to create backdoors for demonstrating students in
my ethical hacking class, I wanted to learn to detect this files using
Clamav and to show students on malware detection *
