CULTURAL RELATIONS IN THE HISTORY OF UZBEKISTAN AND DAGESTAN
Аннотация
at the beginning of the XI-th century, the rich manuscript heritage of Central Asian scientists was widespread in Dagestan (the Republic of the North Caucasus). Among them, for example, were astronomical tables made by the famous Uzbek scientist Mirzo Ulugbek. Six copies of noble prophetic hadiths collected by Imam al-Bukhari were found in the mosque located in the Dagestan village Akusha. Al-Samarkandi’s work entitled “Treatise on Research Literature” was found in the personal library of Mr. Muhammad Said Saidov, which also indicated the name of the scientist Burhan ad-Din al-Numan al-Zarnuji, who lived in the city of Bukhara. There were also many books by Central Asian scientists and jurists, which became available for most scientists and noble rulers of Dagestan, and as a striking example of this, we find the message of the correspondence found in Arabic by the ruler of the medieval state formation of Zirekhgeran, which is currently called “Kubachi". There is also a book called al-Shamsiyya. This book was used to teach Arabic in many madrasahs in Central Asia. In the same letter, the author mentions the “Book of Beliefs” of the scholar Saad ad-Din al-Taftazani, which is the book about the explanations of (Nasafi) teachings, who lived at that time in the Uzbek city called Nasf, which today is called Karshi. At that time, this city was one of the largest centers of Islamic science in Central Asia.
