INTRODUCTION
The religious situation in Mavaraunnahr evolved over several millennia. In the period before the first millennium BC, animistic and totemic teachings were widely spread here. Zoroastrianism, Tengrianism and shamanism also had a great influence on the religious situation. All these cultures played a special role in shaping the current religious and cultural situation in the region before the advent of Islam.
The process of Islamization among the population was very difficult. The beginning of the Arab conquest falls on the middle of the seventh century (643-644). However, several centuries passed before the final Islamization of the peoples of Central Asia. As evidenced by the Arabs themselves. For example, the well-known Arab historian at-Tabari wrote that the khorezmians and inhabitants of the mountainous regions of the region remained "mushriks" even under the Samanids (IX-X centuries). And another Arab historian-geographer al-Maqdisi wrote that half of the inhabitants of Bukhara still under Ismail ibn Nuh (XI century) remained Zoroastrians. The same is confirmed by another historian Ibn al-Athir in his book "al-Kamil fit-Tarikh".
Islamization of the region took place in several stages. The first stage was in the nature of a hard planting of the Muslim religion. Individual cities and regions of Mavaraunnahr stubbornly resisted. According to the work of the historian Narshakhi "History of Bukhara" (Tarikh-i Bukhara), it is described in detail how the inhabitants of Bukhara converted to Islam three times, but each time retreated and returned to their beliefs. For the fourth time, the Arab commander Kuteiba ibn Muslim ordered the inhabitants of Bukhara to give half of their dwellings to the Arabs so that they would mix with the local population and learn about their life. In the course of Islamization, an economic incentive method was also used, according to which non-Islamic people had to pay a separate poll tax (jizya). Many people converted to Islam in order not to pay jizya (poll tax) to the Arabs or pursued other selfish goals.

Narshakhi also reports that in 716 AD. Kutayba ibn Muslim built a Friday Mosque in Bukhara and ordered its inhabitants to gather in it every Friday. Those who attended Friday prayers received two dirhams. Narshakhi also notes that "... the Sogdians and Tokharians, even at the final stage of the conquest of Mavaraunnahr, renounced Islam when the opportunity arose." Therefore, at the end of the first stage of Islamization, the Arabs and local rulers switched to a new method: to attract the local population to Islam through missionary activity, the so-called "da'wa" (Islamic call) in the second half of the 8th century. Gradually, famous theologians and founders of Islamic interpretations, Sufi-mystics, commentators of the Koran and hadith scholars appeared among the peoples of Mavaraunnahr. As a result of the widespread Islamization, the peoples of Central Asia not only adopted Islam, but also penetrated into its essence and themselves became the standard-bearers of the Islamic culture of the Muslim world.
In addition, Islam, as a political and partially ideological alternative, also had its advantages, especially since in reality its formation as a theological and legal school had not yet been completed at that time, and a lot of theologians of the non-Arab world, including from Central Asia. It was they who formed the local forms of existence of Islam, in accordance with cultural, legal, and partly ritual traditions (the whole system of "nafila" - additional rituals - is, in fact, a "pre-Islamic" tradition. But it was introduced and legitimized in the region by local theologians).
SUFISM AND SUFI SECTS IN MAVARAUNNAHR
The history of Sufism, a mystical-ascetic trend in Islam and an important direction of spiritual revival, also has deep roots in Central Asia. It was right here that the orders (tarikat) such as Kubraviya, Yassaviya and Naqshbandiya appeared. Initially, the teachings of Sufism spread in cities, and then Sufism began to spread among the nomadic population of Dasht-i Kipchak (in the steppe territories above the Syr Darya).
The merit of the Sufi orders/tarikats is not only the Islamization of Mavaraunnahr and Dasht-i Kipchak, but also devotion to the faith in the struggle against foreign invaders, in particular against the Mongol conquerors. And the slogan of Bahauddin Naqshband "Dil ba yoru dast ba kor" ("The soul must be addressed to God, and the hands must be at work") turned into a life style for the population of the region and for many centuries constituted the basis of its socio-political activity.
The practice of ziyarat (visiting the graves of saints) is widely known in the region. A striking example of this can be the mausoleums in Turkestan, Samarkand, Bukhara, Tashkent, Termez and other cities. Sufi orders/tarikats enjoyed significant
153

influence on power and public consciousness. Mosques and madrasahs were under the control of the Sufi communities, therefore, public and private ceremonies (funerals, weddings, etc.) could not be organized without their participation. The feasts of the tarikats enjoyed greater prestige among all layers of the society.
Sufism itself arrived in here in the second half of the XI th century. The main associate campaigner of this trend in Mawaraunnahr was Yusuf al-Hamadani [See: author's note] . His disciples Abdukhalik Gijduvoni and Ahmad Yassawi became the founders of two branches of Sufism in Mavaraunnahr.
In the 12th century, the doctrine of "Yassavia" was established in Mavaraunnahr and the Great Steppe, at the end of the 12th century the "Kubravia" in Khorezm, and in the 14th century the "Naqshbandia" in Bukhara. As a continuation, the cult of seven feasts was formed which is still sacredly honored in Bukhara: Khoja Abdukhalik Gijduvani (1103-1179), Khoja Muhammad Arif Revgari (1165-1262), Khoja Muhammad Anzhir Fagnavi (died approx. 1315-17), Khoja Ali Ramitoni (1195-1321), Khoja Muhammad Bobo Samosi (d. 1335), Khoja Sayyid Almir Kulal (1281-1370) and Khoja Bahauddin Naqshband (1338-1389).
Abdukhalik Gijduvaniy (d.1220) [ER: iranicaonline.org,abd-al-kaleq-gojdovani] with full name Abdulkhalik Abu-al-Jalil Gijduvaniy was a spiritual mentor (murshid), as well as the tenth spiritual link in the golden chain of succession of the sheikhs of the Naqshbandiyya tarikat. He was the founder of the Central Asian School of Sufism.
His father was the imam of the mosque in the city of Gijduvan. At the age of 9, Gijduvani learned the Quran by heart, afterwards from the age of 10, he took part in Sufi rituals. Gijduvani received his religious knowledge in Bukhara, where he was a student of the famous scientist Allom Sadreddin at that time. With the arrival of Gijduvani and up to Bahauddin Naqshband, the tarikat was called as "Tariq Hajagon" (Hajagoniyya).
Despite the fact that, Khoja Abdulkhalik Gijduvani received spiritual initiation from Yusuf al-Hamadani, who was also the sheikh of Ahmad Yassawi, in contrast to the latter, he made the hidden zikr a basis of the spiritual transformation of those who entered in this path, and put forward eleven principles of tarikat. Gijduvaniy continued the theory of his teacher and developed the spiritual sequence of Naqshbandi's order of Silsile (order of chain).
Gijduvani spread his studies in Khorezm and Khorasan. Over the centuries, both of these tariqas spread throughout Central Asia, Anatolia and the Balkans. Abdulkhalik Gijduvaniy died in 1220 and was buried in his hometown [M. Abdullah Khani, P.46].

Khoja Ahmad Yassawi (1103-1166), also known as Hazrat Sultan, was a philosopher, Islamic preacher and Sufi poet. He wrote his works in the Old Uzbek language (Chagatai) and authored the cycle of poems titled "Divani Hikmat" Having founded a school of Sufism and having raised a large number of followers, he played one of the key roles in the spread of Islam among the Turkic nomads of the Great Steppe. He is the third feast of the Khojagon tarikat, and the founder of the Yassavia tarikat. He was an adherent of loud zikr, and spread his teachings in Mavaraunnahr. He died and was buried in Turkestan (current Kazakhstan). After his death, by order of Amir Temur, a mausoleum was erected for Ahmad Yassavi, which became a revered place of pilgrimage for the Muslims of the region [Devin DeWeese, 1999].
Another famous representative of Sufism in Mawaraunnahr was Najmiddin al-Kubra (1145-1221). He had founded a Sufi school in Khorezm and laid the foundation for the teachings of "Kubraviya" In the books of "Fragrance of the face and owners of perfection", "Ten laws and rules" Kubra developed his own views on the problems of Sufism. Ten rules form the basis of the Kubraviya doctrine, among which there is renunciation of blessings (zuhd), the path to divinity (tawakkal), the search for perfection (murakaba) and walking to the people (rido). The teaching of "Kubravia" differs from that of "Yassavia" in the sense that it denies asceticism. Kubra put forward the idea that in the process of painstaking work leading to perfection, it is not forbidden at all to use life's benefits and pleasures.
The teaching of "Kubravia" calls to defend the Motherland and fight for its independence. When the Mongol hordes led by Genghis Khan attacked Khorezm in 1221, Najmiddin Kubra together with his disciples with weapons in their hands participated battles against the invaders and died in a fierce battle.
In the XIV century, with the advent of the Temurid dynasty in the region, Sufism received its further development. The Naqshbandiya doctrine appeared in Mavaraunnahr. Its founder is Bahauddin Naqshaband (1338-1389), Muhammad ibn Burhanuddin al-Bukhari. Naqshband significantly strengthened and developed the Sufi movement. Bahauddin Naqshband in his works of "Hayat-name" (Biography) and "Dalil al-ashikin" laid the foundations of his own teaching under the name "Naqshbandiya" and spread widely in Mavaraunnahr, Khorasan and Khorezm, and then in the Middle East.
Bahauddin himself was born in the village of Kasri-Hinduvan near Bukhara. Although his father was a craftsman, Bahauddin, however, inherited his interest in Sufism from his grandfather. His first spiritual teacher was Muhammad Bobo Samosi, who later sent him to continue his studies with Sheikh Sayyid Amir Kulal. Sheikh introduced him to the Khojagan Sufi order of dervishes. Having already been
155

formed as a spiritual teacher, Bahauddin called for simplicity and unpretentiousness in his sermons, but rejected asceticism and solitude. He was a supporter of secular life, which best forms a human personality, opposing ostentatious piety and theatrical rituals, forty-day fasts, loud zikr and vagrancy [Encyclopaedia of Islam, 1960-2005 ]. Bahauddin remarkably weaved silk "kamkha" fabric, was an excellent metal carver, for which he received his nickname - Naqshband ("metal carver").
His teaching is based on the idea of achieving spiritual perfection through labor and worship. Followers of his teachings called for purity, hard work, helping those in need, for sincerity and modesty. Bahauddin's words "dil ba yoru, dast ba kor" (soul to God, hands to labor) reflect the characteristic feature of the Naqshbandiya studies. The emblem of his society is the heart with the word "Allah" inscribed in it [MatHaBHAT rongy3napu, 2001]. The doctrine denies the detachment from the world by promoting hard work, education and justice.
Nasriddin Ubaidullah ibn Mahmud Shashi, also known as Khoja Akhrar (14041489), was a major religious and statesman of Mavaraunnahr, as well as a Sheikh and spiritual leader of the Naqshbandi Sufi tarikat. He was nineteenth in the golden chain of succession of the feasts of the tarikat and he is revered in Sufism as a saint under the name of Khoja Akhrar Vali.
Sheikh Khoja Akhrar built many temples - mosques and madrasahs in the holy cities - Samarkand, Bukhara, Herat, Kabul and others. The authors describing the life of Khoja Akhrar say that, this outstanding man was not only a thinker, miracle-worker and patron of the poor, but also a sophisticated politician. His great peer fellow Alisher Navoi eloquently narrates: "...He gained an amazing influence on the powers and an ineffable closeness to the rulers and overlords. The rulers of Mavaraunnahr considered themselves his murids and fellow campaigners, but many rulers from Egypt to India and China considered themselves companions of Khoja and his subjects.."[Bartold V.V., 1964].
Sheikh Ubaydullah's fame was enormous, and he became the ideological banner of the clergy of Mavaraunnahr, who opposed the secular rule of Ulugbek [I.Suvankulov, 2007]. With the arrival of Khoja Akhrar, the era of enlightenment in Mavaraunnahr was replaced by a slide towards a total sacralization of the life of the population. All phenomena recognized as non-Shariah were violently eradicated from public life [Babadjanov B. M., 2005]. By the end of his life, the sheikh became one of the richest people in Turkestan, he owned vast lands and real estate throughout the region. At the same time, Khoja Akhrar lived very modestly and spent a significant part of his income on charity, as well as on the construction of mosques, madrasahs and Sufi khanaka (dormitories) throughout the country.

Khoja Akhrar left behind a significant literary heritage. Out of the ten works attributed to the sheikh, two undoubtedly composed by him, and two more ("Fakarat al-arifii" ("Paragraphs of cognizant") and "Malfuzat" by Mir Abdulavwali Nishopuri) are collections of his sayings and aphorisms. The first and most significant of the treatises of Khoja Akhrark - "Risalai Validiya" ("Parental Message"), is devoted to the problems of cognizing Allah and the peculiarities of the Hajagan order. Thanks to Babur's translation, the treatise became well-known not only in the Arab world, but also among the Turkic-speaking population. The second work titled "Risalai Hauraye" ("Message about the Hurias") was devoted to the study of the rubai of Sheikh Abusaid Fazlullah Abulkhair Makhnai.
Sufi Allayar (1634-1721) was a famed representative of the Sufi doctrine in Mawaraunnahr and in the Turkestan region, a famous Uzbek poet, writer, philosopher and theologian [L. Asrorova, 2018.]. Sufi Allayar was born in 1644 in the village of Minglar (90 kilometers west of Samarkand), which was part of the Bukhara khanate. He is descendant from an Uzbek clan of utarchi [I.Suvonkulov, 2010]. His father paid particular attention to his son's religious education. Sufi Allayar was educated at the Bukhara madrasah, where he became the murid of the Naqshbandi sheikhs: Khoja Mumin, Muhammad Ghazni, Piri Komil Shaikh Sufi Navruz Bukhori and Piri Komil Shaikh Habibullah.
The poet spent most of his life in the city of Kattakurgan, but he traveled a lot at the late periods of his life. Sufi Allayar's famous poetic work titled "Sabotul ozhizin" written in Uzbek, was devoted to Sufi philosophy, and later became a textbook for madrasahs in Bukhara, Kokand and Khiva. The composition was reprinted several times in Turkey, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Russia (Kazan). Sufi Allayar also wrote in Persian-Tajik and Arabic languages [R.R.Maxanova, 2008].
Thus, summarizing the role and significance of Sufism in Mavaraunnahr, and then in Turkestan, it should be noted that, it was inextricably linked with the spiritual life of the population of the entire Central Asia. The activities of prominent Sufi sheikhs in this era were aimed both at improving the socio-economic and political situation and strengthening the Hanafi madhhab in the region.

CONCLUSION
As a result of widespread Islamization in the region, the peoples of Central Asia not only accepted Islam, but also penetrated into its essence and became the standard-bearers of the Islamic culture of the Muslim world.
The population of Mavaraunnahr made a great contribution to the development of Islamic civilization and the formation of Islamic sciences. It is also worth noting that, the region presented the world great encyclopaedic scholars and philosophers such as al-Biruni, Ibn Sina, al-Khwarizmi, al-Fargoni, Ulugbek and many others.
Thus, the fertile land of Uzbekistan has presented the world a whole galaxy of scientists and thinkers who, with their natural science, logical, religious and philosophical researches have made a great contribution to the development of world and Muslim civilization. Almost all the cities of this region became famous thanks to their glorious sons coming from Khorezm, Samarkand, Bukhara, Nasaf, Tashkent, Fergana, Margilan, Termez, Shakhrisabz and other places. They were distinguished in the fields of science, poetry and music, culture, theology, medicine, military affairs, architecture, fine and applied arts.
Sufi tariqas served as the main and final force for the Islamization of the region. The soft power of Islam was able to conquer the peoples of the region who had previously worshiped their religions and traditions for more than a millennium. In addition to all this, the Sufi movement was able to combine the previously accumulated cultural heritage with the young emerging unifying force of Islam.
Thus, it should be concluded that, the land of Uzbekistan has become one of the main centers of Islamic civilization and has made a significant contribution to the development of universal and Muslim civilizations and sciences.
