Opening the event, Professor Shovosil Ziyodov, Director of the Center, warmly welcomed the delegation and the prominent Indonesian scholars and religious figures in attendance.<\/span>

The Director also expressed his appreciation to Indonesian teachers and scholars for the systematic study and teaching of Sahih al-Bukhari at educational institutions across the country.<\/span><\/p>\n

In turn, the head of the delegation, Muhammad Yusuf Chudlori, leader of Asrama Perguruan Islam (API) Tegalrejo, expressed his gratitude for the warm hospitality extended to the guests. He noted that visiting the historic city of Samarkand is a cherished aspiration for thousands of Indonesian students.<\/span>

During the discussions, both sides agreed that Imam Bukhari\u2019s legacy is not merely a great treasure of the past, but also an invaluable spiritual stronghold that continues to promote peace, tolerance and sound religious understanding in contemporary society.<\/span>
\nParticipants emphasized that strengthening cooperation between scholars and research institutions is a priority in promoting Islam\u2019s authentic humanitarian and enlightenment-oriented values internationally and protecting young people from the influence of destructive ideologies.<\/span><\/p>\n

The roundtable featured proposals to attract more Indonesian students and researchers to Samarkand and directly to the Center, sign a memorandum of understanding on cooperation, and develop pilgrimage tourism through the launch of direct flights between Jakarta and Samarkand.<\/span>
\nAs part of the event, the distinguished scholars and guests solemnly completed a full recitation of the blessed Sahih al-Bukhari with deep reverence and devotion.<\/span>
\nFollowing the roundtable, the guests visited Imam Bukhari\u2019s mausoleum and offered prayers in honor of the great hadith scholar.
