SAMARKAND : On March 22, the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan, Shavkat Mirziyoyev visited the mausoleum of Imam Bukhari in Samarkand. Verses from the Quran were recited.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday, in the holy month of Ramadan, we find ourselves in this blessed place. We express our gratitude to the Almighty for granting us the opportunity to witness these sacred days in peace and tranquility. May peace and prosperity prevail in our country, and all good initiatives come to fruition. We are developing this complex to be worthy of the great merits of our ancestor, Imam Bukhari. Let it become not only a place of pilgrimage, but also a center of enlightenment, education, and spiritual guidance\u201d,\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

President Shavkat Mirziyoyev said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Mausoleum of Imam Bukhari is a sacred site for the entire Islamic world. On the initiative of the Head of state, a new large-scale memorial complex is being constructed here to accommodate the needs of numerous pilgrims.<\/p>\n

The complex spans an area of 44 hectares. The construction of a majestic mausoleum and a mosque capable of holding 10,000 worshippers has already been completed. Four minarets, each 75 meters high, lend a particular sense of monumentality to the complex. A museum, covered galleries, and administrative and auxiliary buildings have also been erected.<\/p>\n

Finishing works are underway, incorporating national traditions and a warm color palette. Hadiths from \u201cSahih al-Bukhari\u201d<\/strong> will be inscribed on the facades and walls of the iwans.<\/p>\n

In addition, the construction of more than 20 hotels with a total capacity of 2,000 guests and walking alleys is planned.<\/p>\n

\"\"This year, Uzbekistan will widely commemorate the 1,155th anniversary of the birth of Imam Abu Mansur al-Maturidi.<\/strong> In accordance with a Presidential Resolution, the restoration and improvement of his mausoleum in Samarkand has been scheduled.<\/p>\n

The project for the upcoming works was presented.<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to the plan, a congregational mosque for 1,500 worshippers and an administrative building will be constructed at the site. The complex will also include a library, a conference hall, an innovative museum, and facilities for specialists. A parking area and ablution facilities will be provided for pilgrims.<\/p>\n

Imam Abu Mansur al-Maturidi<\/strong> lived when divisions within the Islamic world were deepening, and various sects were spreading. He devoted his entire life to defending the true Islamic faith and promoting enlightenment. His works, such as \u201cTa\u2019wilat al-Qur\u2019an\u201d<\/strong> and \u201cKitab at-Tawhid\u201d,<\/strong> became the spiritual foundation of the Sunni tradition of Islam, which advocates moderation and tolerance.<\/p>\n
