    Inventing Akromiya: The Role of Uzbek Propagandists in the Andijon Massacre SARAH KENDZIOR Abstract: Many have claimed that the alleged terrorist group Akromiya incited the violence in the city of Andijon, Uzbekistan, in May 2005. This article contends that the portrayal of Akromiya as a violent organization is highly suspect and may have been created by members of the Uzbek government and propagated by mem- bers of the international scholarly community. Key words: Akromiya, Andijon, Islam, propaganda, terrorism, Uzbekistan Introduction n May 16, 2006, a group of scholars, policy experts, and journalists convened O at the Hudson Institute in Washington, DC, for the unveiling of a video that promised to reveal the truth about the violent events in the city of Andijon, Uzbek- istan, one year before. “This video demonstrates that the organizers of the upris- ing may not have been, as some have claimed, ‘peaceful Muslims,’” proclaimed the cohosts of the event, Zeyno Baran of the Hudson Institute and S. Frederick Starr of the Central Asia Caucasus Institute, in an invitation to colleagues.1 According to Baran and Starr, this new video, which had been made available to them by the Uzbek embassy, would put to rest reports declaring the Andijon events to be a Tiananmen Square-style massacre of defenseless citizens by the Uzbek government. Proof of the falseness of this allegation, they claimed, lies in the fact that the video “shows clips recorded by members of Akromiya (a Hizb- ut Tahrir splinter group) during the uprising in Andijon on May 14, 2005.”2 Roughly twenty-six minutes long, the video consisted of three main parts: clips of remorseful Akromiya members pleading for the forgiveness of the government; conversations with alleged witnesses and victims; and an interview with Shirin Akiner, a professor and close colleague of Starr who has condemned Akromiya and supported Uzbek President Islam Karimov’s claim that the use of force was Sarah Kendzior recently completed her MA in Central Eurasian studies at Indiana Uni- versity.
  • Islamic Revival in Post-Independence Uzbekistan

    Islamic Revival in Post-Independence Uzbekistan

    Islamic Revival in Post-Independence Uzbekistan JAMSHID GAZIEV Islamic slogans are always used as a doctrine and not a religious one, but as a political doctrine and mostly as a means of attaining quite definite political aims. Barhold V.V. This paper will sek to analyze the revival of Islam in Uzbekistan after a century of suppression. Islamic revivalism emerged during the last decade of the Soviet Union and has since played a significant role in the politics and society of the state. The author’s main aim is to explore the political consequences, either positive or negative, caused by the revival of Islam. The paper will examine the factors that promoted the resurgence of Islam, paying attention to the present government’s position towards Islamic revival, and the changes occurring in domestic policy due to the Islamization of society. The concept that Islam plays a significant role in forming self-identity, and is confused and intertwined with other national and regional identities will be analyzed throughout this paper. In order to illustrate the political scene in Uzbekistan, Islam’s division on both horizontal and vertical levels in terms of indoctrination and institutionalization will be discussed in detail. Finally, as it poses a major challenge to the stability and prosperity of the country, Islamic fundamentalism, and wahhabism in particular, will also be discussed. Factors and Determinants of Islamic Revival in Uzbekistan The most significant event in the cultural and spiritual life of Uzbekistan since the mid-1980s was the return of Islam to its proper place in society. At last it can be stated that liberty of conscience and religion has become a reality.

    Naqshbandi Sufi, Persian Poet

    ABD AL-RAHMAN JAMI: “NAQSHBANDI SUFI, PERSIAN POET A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Farah Fatima Golparvaran Shadchehr, M.A. The Ohio State University 2008 Approved by Professor Stephen Dale, Advisor Professor Dick Davis Professor Joseph Zeidan ____________________ Advisor Graduate Program in History Copyright by Farah Shadchehr 2008 ABSTRACT The era of the Timurids, the dynasty that ruled Transoxiana, Iran, and Afghanistan from 1370 to 1506 had a profound cultural and artistic impact on the history of Central Asia, the Ottoman Empire, and Mughal India in the early modern era. While Timurid fine art such as miniature painting has been extensively studied, the literary production of the era has not been fully explored. Abd al-Rahman Jami (817/1414- 898/1492), the most renowned poet of the Timurids, is among those Timurid poets who have not been methodically studied in Iran and the West. Although, Jami was recognized by his contemporaries as a major authority in several disciplines, such as science, philosophy, astronomy, music, art, and most important of all poetry, he has yet not been entirely acknowledged in the post Timurid era. This dissertation highlights the significant contribution of Jami, the great poet and Sufi thinker of the fifteenth century, who is regarded as the last great classical poet of Persian literature. It discusses his influence on Persian literature, his central role in the Naqshbandi Order, and his input in clarifying Ibn Arabi's thought. Jami spent most of his life in Herat, the main center for artistic ability and aptitude in the fifteenth century; the city where Jami grew up, studied, flourished and produced a variety of prose and poetry.

    Mughal-Afghan Conflict in South Asia: Origin and Development

    TAKATOO Issue 11 Volume6 46 January – June 2014 Mughal-Afghan Conflict in South Asia: Origin and Development Himayatullah Yaqubi Abstract: Afghans and Mughals remained at war with each-others not only in the mainland of India but also along the porous north-western border inhibited largely by the Afghans. In fact, Zahir-ud-Din Babur, the founder of Mughal Dynasty, had faced the Afghan danger not only in border areas but also had to compete with them for the throne of Delhi. However, very little academic work has been done to discover the origin of their conflict that took the contour of an un-ending rivalry between the two nations. The Afghans in general, throughout the Mughal rule in India, never reconciled with them and most of the time resisted their intrusions. The paper aims at to dig out the actual cause or causes of their conflict and its development in historical perspective. The objective is to relocate roots of their relationship in Kabul when Ulegh Beg Mirza, brother of Umar Shaikh Mirza, was ruling over there. In addition, its effects, on the Indian political events that unfolded during Babur and Humayun times, would be judged to comprehend its true nature. It would be judged that how their relationship in Kabul fashioned future Indian political discourse between the two nations. Mughal-Afghan Relations in Kabul After the death of Timur, there was chaos in his vast empire. His vast empire was divided amongst his four sons; Miran Shah, Jahangir, Amir Shaikh and Shah Rukh Mirza. In the family of Timur, Abu Said was the son of Sultan Muhammad Mirza, grandson of Miran Shah and grand-grandson of Timur.

    Muslim Women Leaders in Post-Soviet Ferghana Valley: Whose Leadership Is It Anyway?1

    Muslim Women Leaders in Post-Soviet Ferghana Valley: Whose Leadership Is It Anyway?1 Svetlana Peshkova, University of New Hampshire2 Abstract Despite many geographic and historical examples of Muslim women’s leadership, questions about women’s ability to lead and about the kinds of leadership women can assume are still a part of scholarly and public debates among Muslims. Muslim women leaders (otinchalar) in post-Soviet Ferghana Valley act as leaders, both religious and political, within their communities without necessarily being recognized as such by formal religious and secular authorities. Based on ethnographic fieldwork (2001-2003) in the Valley, I argue that in order to fully understand women’s leadership we need to question the assumption that men and women desire the same forms of leadership. A desire for leadership is not intrinsic to women (or humans in general) but is socio-historically specific. Thus constituted desire engenders different, equally important, forms of leadership, such as imams, mullahs, and otinchalar. People’s Professor Feruza-opa3 was described by some of her students as “the one who brings Islamic knowledge and spiritual peace into the hearts of the believers.” Her other students called her a “people’s professor.” She called herself an otincha, a teacher. As she said, she “taught Islam” to some local women and occasionally children. Some local men came by periodically to get her advice. At a meeting in 2002 in the Ferghana Valley, I asked Feruza-opa about Hizb ut-Tahrir (the Party of Liberation), a transnational Islamist movement with the aim of establishing an Islamic State.

    Tadhkirat Al-Sh.U Lara

    Mir Dawlatshah Samarqandi Tadhkirat al-sh.u lara Mir Dawlatshah Samarqandi was the son of Amir Ala'uddawla Bakhtishah Isfarayini, one of Shahrukh's courtiers, and nephew of the powerful Amir Firozshah. Unlike his fore- bears, who "passed their time as aristocrats in ostentatiousness and opulence," Mir Dawlatshah, who was of a dervish bent and had some poetic talent, "sought seclusion and contented himself with a life of spiritual poverty and rustication to acquire learning and perfection."! At the age of fifty he began his Tadhkirat al-shu'ara (Memorial of poets), anecdotes about and short biographies of 150 Persian poets, ancient and modern, which he completed in 892/1487. The judgment of Mir Ali-Sher Nawa'i, to whom the work was dedicated, was that "anyone who reads it will realize the merit and talent of the compiler." Although the book deals primarily with poets, since poets generally were inextricably bound to royal patrons, it contains valuable anecdotal information on many pre- Timurid, Timurid and Turcoman rulers. The synopses of rulers' careers and anecdotes illustrative of their characters included by Dawlatshah are translated and given here. * SULTANUWAYS JALAYIR2 out of a greedy poet's house is a difficult task," and gave him the candlestick.

    Volume 92 Number 880 December 2010 Transnational Islamic networks Imtiaz Gul Imtiaz Gul is the Executive Director of the Centre for Research and Security Studies,Islamabad, and has been covering security and terrorism-related issues in the South/Central Asian region for more than two decades. Abstract Besides a surge in terrorist activities, events following the 11 September terrorist attack on the United States have raised a new challenge for the world: the emergence of transnational Islamic networks, predominantly influenced by organizations such as Ikhwan al Muslimeen (the Muslim Brotherhood) and Al Qaeda, which are helping to spread a particular religious ideology across the globe and are also having an impact on pre-existing groups in Afghanistan and Pakistan. This article gives an overview of the role of Islamist networks and their influence, drawn from Al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood, in South and South-west Asia and the Afghanistan– Pakistan region in particular. It also explains how local like-minded outfits have used Al Qaeda’s anti-Western jargon to recruit foot soldiers and enlist support within their society, besides serving as financial conduits for the radical Wahabite/Salafi reformists. Traditional Islam in South and South-west Asia Islam came to the Indian subcontinent in the eighth century with the Arab con- quest of Sindh (now the fourth province of Pakistan in the south). In the ensuing decades, however, besides struggles and battles for political domination among kings and sultans of the region, Sufis and saints played a major role in influencing traditional Islam in South (and West) Asia.
