KHOJA MUHAMMAD ARIF REVGARIY: THE PATH OF SPIRITUAL PERFECTION AND SUFICIAL TEACHING

This article analyzes the life path, spiritual heritage and mystical views of Khoja Muhammad Arif Revgari, a prominent representative of the Bukhara Sufi school, the fourth pir of the Khojagon order. The study highlights the reasons for Revgari’s fame with the title «Mokhitobon», his services in preserving the principles of the «Khojagon» order founded by his mentor Khoja Abdulkhaliq G’ijduvani and passing them on to future generations. The central part of the article is the ideological content of the treatise «Arifnama», which is considered the only work of the thinker. It examines issues such as the purification of the human spirit, the education of the soul, the inextricable connection between Sharia and the order, and the importance of the dialogue of the righteous based on sources. Also, the place of Revgari in the series of the seven pirs of Bukhara and the influence of his views on the subsequent formation of the Naqshbandi doctrine are comparatively studied. The results of the research serve as an important source for research in the history of Central Asian mysticism and spiritual studies.
