    ISSN 2707-4013 © Nariman Gasimoglu СТАТТІ / ARTICLES e-mail: [email protected] Nariman Gasimoglu. Problems of Muslim Belief іn Azerbaijan: Historical аnd Modern Realities. Сучасне ісламознавство: науковий журнал. Острог: Вид-во НаУОА, 2020. DOI: 10.25264/2707-4013-2020-2-12-17 № 2. C. 12–17. Nariman Gasimoglu PROBLEMS OF MUSLIM BELIEF IN AZERBAIJAN: HISTORICAL AND MODERN REALITIES Religiosity in Azerbaijan, the country where vast majority of population are Muslims, has many signs different to what is practiced in other Muslim countries. This difference in the first place is related to the historically established religious mentality of Azerbaijanis. Worth noting is that history of this country with its Shia Muslims majority and Sunni Muslims minority have registered no serious incidents or confessional conflicts and clashes either on the ground of inter-sectarian confrontation or between Muslim and non-Muslim population. Azerbaijan has never had anti-Semitism either; there has been no fact of oppression of Jewish people living in Azerbaijan for many centuries. One of the interesting historic facts is that Molokans (ethnic Russians) who have left Tsarist Russia when challenged by religious persecution and found asylum in neighborhoods of Muslim populated villages of Azerbaijan have been living there for about two hundred years and never faced problems as a religious minority. Besides historical and political reasons, this should be related to tolerance in the religious mentality of Azerbaijanis as well. Features of religion in Azerbaijan: historical context Most of the people living in Azerbaijan were devoted to Tengriism (Tengriism had the most important place in the old belief system of ancient Turks), Zoroastrianism and Christianity before they embraced Islam.

In this respect, worthy mentioning of a staunch friend of Azerbaijan, First Deputy Minister of Kuwait for Islam and Vakfs, Chairman of the Asian Muslims Committee, Dr. Adil Al-Falah. First-hand acquaintance with his work devoted to Heydar Aliyev makes it possible to infer that Dr. A. Al-Falah not only kept up with our nationwide leader but also thrashed out works, declarations, statements and speecb.es of Heydar Aliyev. Contributing to the importance of the present work is its having been written in Arabic and thus available to broader circles of multi-million Arab readers and public opinion to familiarize themselves with titanic activity of Heydar Aliyev.

  • Inter University Cooperation for Open Science”
    International Conference on: „INTER UNIVERSITY COOPERATION FOR OPEN SCIENCE” An event dedicated to the celebration of the 100th Anniversary of Baku State University Date: May 28th-29th, 2019 Place: University of Bucharest, Romania Background: In 1919 the Parliament of Azerbaijan Democratic Republic decided the establishment of Baku State University as one of the main institutions to contribute to the establishment and consolidation of the young democratic Republic of Azerbaijan. Based on the decision of the Black Sea Universities Network General Assembly, the Celebration of 100th Anniversary of Baku State University shall be organized with a major event. The main topic of this event is proposed to be “Open Science” and the University of Bucharest offered the possibility to co-organize such an event with the support of UNICA. Open Science represents a new approach to the scientific process based on cooperative work and new ways of diffusing knowledge by using digital technologies and new collaborative tools (European Commission, 2016b:33). The OECD defines Open Science as: “to make the primary outputs of publicly funded research results – publications and the research data – publicly accessible in digital format with no or minimal restriction” (OECD, 2015:7), but it is more than that. Open Science is about extending the principles of openness to the whole research cycle, fostering sharing and collaboration as early as possible thus entailing a systemic change to the way science and research is done. Aim: The event shall facilitate discussions on the current challenges in addressing the complexity of Open Science concepts and principles from the perspective of higher education in the global and regional context, in a changing and globalizing world.

  • “Occulture” and Alternative Forms of Religiosity in Contemporary Azerbaijan
    “OCCULTURE” AND ALTERNATIVE FORMS OF RELIGIOSITY IN CONTEMPORARY AZERBAIJAN Adeline BRAUX Research and Analyses – No. 39 – March 2017 URL : http://religion.info/pdf/2017_03_alternative_religiosity_Azerbaijan.pdf © 2017 Adeline Braux Abstract Analysing the current phenomena of alternative religiosities through a post-Soviet lens may be productive in the Azerbaijani context, given the so-called “religious revival” experienced by the countries of the former Soviet Union. However, these clusters of beliefs and practices do not cohere into a widely accepted system, therefore it is difficult to analyse them within the general framework of the theory of religion. Yet they should not be regarded as being irrelevant to religiosity, in that they reflect a relationship to supernatural and transcendental forces that is articulated in everyday life. In practice, the development of alternative religious practices in Azerbaijan should be interpreted in a context characterised by the existence of bridges between traditional practices and new forms of religion-related activities, and the importance of the circulation of knowledge and people from Soviet Russia before 1991 and currently within a space stretching from Russia to Turkey, against the background of the increased supply of and demand for alternative services related to “the curing of body and soul”, together with a growing individualisation of religious practices. This article focuses on three specific groups/areas in Azerbaijan: ekstrasensy and parapsychologists, popular “occulture”, and the Hare Krishna community. Keywords: Azerbaijan, alternative religiosities, occulture, parapsychology, psychics, ekstrasensy Introduction1 An extremely popular TV programme in the post-Soviet space in the last ten years has been “The Clash of Ekstrasensy” (Bitva ekstrasensov in Russian), modelled on the British reality show The Psychic Challenge.
