From a young age, he was an avid student of the knowledge of the Divine Law, the Traditions and the Quran. By the time he met Khwaja Mahmud Ingir al-Fagnevi, from whom he was given the Naqshbandi spiritual secret, he was a reference for anyone seeking religious or legal direction. He was a weaver of carpets by trade and would give away more than half of his earnings to the poor. As recorded by Mawlana Abdul Rahman Jami in his famous book entitled ‘Nafahat al-Uns’ (Breaths of Divine Intimacy), Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi referred to Khwaja Ali as ‘Khwaja Nassaj’ (the Weaver) in his poem:- ‘If there is anyone whose knowledge of the spiritual stater is beyond description in words, he must surely be Khwaja Nassaj (the Weaver), the servant of the people of high rank of Bukhara!’

When the sheikh was asked about these innovations, he replied: “Let the sleepers wake up.” Hajj Mahmud Anjir-fagnaviy was the spiritual mentor of the famous Sufi mystic Hajj Ali Ramitani, who had a large number of murids and followers.

Abdul Khaliq Ghijduvani

May 12, 2023

The 4th day of our practice days we went to the mausoleum of Ghijduwani . It is proper adab to visit the eldest first, so the first of these Naqshbandi saints to visit was Hazrat ‘Abdul Khaliq al-GHudjwani (r.a.). His shrine is beautifully restored and has a busy flow of wedding parties, locals paying their respects, and people making pilgrimage from further afield. There is a mosque nearby and a madrassa, restored but unused. Helping us with the August heat, we were blessed with a cooling breeze and a shaded bench from which to offer our salams and sit in muraqabah. Hazrat ‘Abdul Khaliq (r.a.) was born to an Anatolian princess, a descendant of Imam Malik, and Shaykh ‘Abdul Jamil, (r.a.), one of the most famous scholars of Byzantine times. He was a master of silent dhikr and the first in the silsila to use it. He studied the traditional Islamic sciences throughout his childhood, then jihad an-nafs (the spiritual struggle) under Shaikh Yusuf al-Hamadani (r.a.). He established a school

Modarikhan Madrasah

May 03, 2023

Today we went to the one of the beautiful historical building in the Bukhara which is called Modarikhan Madrasah. Now I'm going to share information about it. Historians highly appreciate Abdullah Khan's efforts to improve the territory. With it, thanks to the strengthening of the central authority, large-scale construction work was carried out. Abdulla Khan built more than 1000 buildings and fountains, many madrassas, mosques, bridges, reservoirs. In Bukhara, an extensive trade center was established. So in the western part of the historical part of Bukhara is Kosh Madrasah. It is an architectural ensemble consisting of two madrasahs: MedressaModari Khan and Medrese Abdullah Khan. Madrasas built in the XVI century are opposite to one another. Madari Khan was first built in 1566 - 1567. Modari Khan is translated as "Khan's mother", since this madrasah was built by the Uzbek Khan Abdullah Khan II in honor of his mother. The main facade of the M

Ulugbekh madrasah

May 02, 2023

Today we went to the one of the famous historical building in Bukhara which is called Ulugbekh madrasah. Now I am going to share information about it. The madrasah was built in 1417 by Ismail Isfagani and Najmeddin Bukhari, the best architects of the time. The structure shows harmonious proportions and forms of its elements; it has little decoration and yet looks impressive and even majestic. It is a rectangular building with a large portal and a courtyard. It features an entrance corridor splitting and leading in two directions: to the mosque and darskhona classroom. This was against the common design of madrasah corridors, which led right into the yard. The gate of the madrasah has a carved inscription taken from the Koran: ‘The pursuit of knowledge is the responsibility of every Muslim man and woman’. This citation can be considered to have been Ulugbek’s motto. There was also another inscription:‘May the door of God’s blessings be every day open to the people who are aware of book

Abdulaziz-Khan Madrasah

May 01, 2023

Hello🙂 my name is Oydina. Today we went to the one of the beautiful historical building which was called Abdulazizkhan madrasa. Now I am going to share information about it. Abdulaziz-Khan Madrasah, which stands across from it, is an integral part of Bukhara’s most outstanding architectural ensemble. Abdulaziz-Khan Madrasah marks the remarkable progress of medieval Central Asian architecture; it shows us how amazingly high the skills of Central Asian architects, builders and artists were at the time. Abdulaziz-Khan Madrasah is often compared with Ulugh-Beg Madrasah, since they are a duet of completely different structures of different times. Ulugh-Beg Madrasah, built during the reign of the Timurid dynasty, is moderate in size and decoration, while its counterpart is grand and ornate. The pishtaq portal of the madrasah is amazingly high and splendidly decorated. The iwan gateway has many facets and ornamental stalactites. While the iwan of Ulugh-Beg Madrasah is plain and has inscribe

First day of practice

January 25, 2023

Hello everyone.🤗 My name is Oydina. Today I want to share my feelings and experiences with you. We went to the one of the famous historical monuments in Bukhara is Chor Bakr. Five kilometers away to the west from Bukhara, where the fields are separated by rows of mulberry trees, there is one of the most unusual landmarks – the Chor-Bakr Necropolis, also called the city of the dead. The first graves there appeared thousand years ago, when there was a small settlement of dervishes. But the magnificent architectural ensemble, now visited by thousands of pilgrims was not built until the XVI century. In the X century when Bukhara was under the Samanid dynasty, there lived an old family of Djuybar Seyyids (Prophet Muhammad’s descendants), who played an important role in the city’s life. For centuries the Djuybars were buried in this country cemetery. Chor-Bakr is really an unusual and mysterious place. Visiting Chor-Bakr you could not help but feel the breath of the world of the dead, whe
