RELATIONSHIP OF RELIGION AND TRADITION IN CENTRAL ASIA

Abstract

As a result of the Arab conquest of Maverannahr (most of modern Central Asia), Islam was introduced to a country with rich cultural traditions. Since that time, the centuries-old interaction of Islam, which has absorbed elements of the Middle Eastern civilization, with local cultural traditions, begins. It was difficult for the Arab invaders to convert the population of Movarounnahr to Islam, and they met with constant resistance. The Arabs, along with the military, used Islamic propagandists and gradually achieved results.
