The forum was organized by the Institute of History of the Academy of Sciences of Uzbekistan in cooperation with several partner institutions and Ankara Haji Bayram Veli University in Turkey. Prominent scholars from both countries participated in the event, including Mekhrojiddin Amonov, a researcher at the Imam Bukhari International Scientific Research Center, who shared insights on Sufi traditions, the Yassawiya order, its historical and spiritual significance, and contemporary studies on the subject.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-43142\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bukhari.uz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tad120602.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"429\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bukhari.uz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tad120602.jpg 660w, https:\/\/bukhari.uz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tad120602-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">In his presentation titled \u201cThe Yassawiya Order: Silsila and Genealogy (From Turkestan to Samarkand),\u201d M. Amonov presented his scholarly reflections on the spread of the Yassawi order throughout the region. He emphasized that the Yassawiya was one of the earliest Sufi schools formed in Central Asia and flourished not only in Turkestan, but also in Tashkent, Khorezm, Bukhara, and Samarkand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-43143\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bukhari.uz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tad120603.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"429\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bukhari.uz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tad120603.jpg 660w, https:\/\/bukhari.uz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tad120603-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">The core foundation of the Sufi order lies in the spiritual chains \u2013 silsilas and genealogies \u2013 that trace back to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). In Sufism, the silsila represents an unbroken spiritual, educational, and guiding link passed from master to disciple. Within the Yassawiya order, this link was transmitted from Ahmad Yassawi to figures such as Hakim Ata, Zangi Ata, and other scholars, eventually spreading to Samarkand, Bukhara, Khorezm, and even as far as India.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-43144\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bukhari.uz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tad120604.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"429\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bukhari.uz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tad120604.jpg 660w, https:\/\/bukhari.uz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tad120604-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">As highlighted during the presentation, Yassawi genealogies and inscriptions on gravestones preserve unique historical information.

In particular, he analyzed the lineage of Sayyid Ahmad Khoja, including descendants such as Muhammad Mirzo Sayyid and their successors, correlating these findings with historical sources.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-43145\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bukhari.uz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tad120605.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"429\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bukhari.uz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tad120605.jpg 660w, https:\/\/bukhari.uz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/tad120605-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">The lecture was met with great interest and respect by the audience and international participants.
