UDC 2-472(574) G.M. Razdykova1, F.N. Salimov2 1S. Toraigyrov Pavlodar State Pedagogical University, Kazakhstan; 2Tajikistan National University, Tajikistan (E-mail: [email protected]) To the question of the content of educational programs in the muslim schools of Kazakhstan In the article various sources and literature including post-revolutionary literature of the second half of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century are presented. New ethnographic materials will give a broader perspective on the content of academic programs in Muslim schools. Teaching and methodological literature in Muslim maktabs (mostly refers to elementary schools where children are taught reading, writing, grammar and Islamic studies) was represented both by handwritten and printed textbooks and teaching aids. У Such textbooks and teaching aids meant specially written books for certain disciplines. Handwritten books were widely used in the Muslim maktabs. Over the years many of the manuscripts had been published in numerous later editions. Learning and teaching support was mainly focused on compilation of schoolГ curriculum. The first school curriculum for «new-method» schools was compiled by I. Gasprinsky in 1898. It was called «Rahbar Mogallimin» and consisted of a subject schedule, basics of teaching by theр sound method, lesson plans, as well as examples of lessons schedule with the amount of academic hours. Textbooks for maktabs, which were widespread in the Governor-Generalship of the Steppes, were mostly published not in Kazakh, but in Tatar. They outlined the main provisions of the Islamic religion. Theа educational and methodological basis of the pedagogical system of Kazakhstan preserved the obsolete features. Keywords: Muslim schools, Kazakh literature, Islam, culture, religious and spiritualК literature, school curricu- lum, ethnography of Kazakhs. Teaching and methodological literature in Muslim schools wasй represented both by handwritten and printed textbooks and teaching aids. Such textbooks and teaching aids meant specially written books for certain disciplines. и Handwritten books were widely used in the Muslim maktabs. In the report of the Orenburg Muslim Spiritual Authority, dated February 1, 1893, there is theр following information: «The Ministry of Education became aware that in its subordinate... maktabs and madrasah, in addition to printed books of religious content, handwritten books and notebooks, content of which is often imbued with feelings of hostility to- wards Russia, are often used» [1]. о Manuscript books were in widespread use. Over the years many of the manuscripts had been published in numerous later editions. One of the first toт come out was the epic «Yer-Targhyn» (Kazan, 1862), recorded by N.I. Ilminsky according to oral information provided by of akyn Marabai. Later, nine more editions of the epic were published. In accordance иwith archival documents, it was possible to determine the edition of 7,600 copies printed. Further, in the archival documents,з there was information explaining the use of handwritten books: «... the reason for the appearance of handwritten copies of these books is the fact that the students have practice in spelling and calligraphyо according to the usual procedure. In all madrasah, they usually transcribe printed or less often handwritten books, and so that not to waste the effort and material, they use their exercises in bookishп form, which later will be able to be used by those who need them» [2]. At the end of XIX century handwritten educational books gradually began to give way to printed publications. е Learning and teaching support was mainly focused on compilation of school curriculum. The first school curriculum for «new-method» schools was compiled by I. Gasprinsky in 1898. It was called «RahbarР Mogallimin» and consisted of a subject schedule, basics of teaching by the sound method, lesson plans, as well as examples of lessons schedule with the amount of academic hours. In the years that followed until 1917, 21 school curriculums for Muslim schools were compiled and published. The most popular school curriculum was «Ysuly Tedris» because of a number of advantages it contained. For example, it took into account the age peculiarities of students, had the developed methodology for teaching certain disciplines in each class. This curriculum was compiled on the basis of the principles of Серия «История. Философия». № 2(94)/2019 65 G.M. Razdykova, F.N. Salimov Islam, and at the same time it conformed to the requirements of the Jadid education system. It should be noted that there were individual school curriculums that were applied within one educational institution. In the «new-method» maktabs, where the range of studied subjects was quite vast, the list of used textbooks included: school primer or ABS books «Tatar-alifbasy» («Tatar alphabet») by M. Kurbangaliyev; «Tatar-tili» («Tatar language») by Tuktarov and Gismati; «Tutkioku» («Reading in Turkish») by Mahmoud Mardjani. The last textbook, published in the city of Orenburg, was quite widespread in the Governor-Generalship of the Steppes. «Muntazym Alifba» («Correct ABC book»), compiled by the teacher of madrasah «Galiya» Khanafeyev, was used in madrasah as a primer and the first book for reading. The textbook consisted of 42 pages. Khanafeyev gave brief instructions on how to give lessons using his primer compiled by him for teaching according to the sound method. Two or three sounds and letters were suggested to be studied, and then there were some words to practice reading the letters studied, then they were followed by whole sentences, and finally by articles. These articles are usually of the same content — about benefits and need for studying at Maktab. Along with the articles of secularism content, a number of articles on the IslamicУ doctrine under the title «Fasyl» are included into the primer. Samples of Arabic reading are placed at the back of the textbook [3]. Г Unfortunately, the primer did not differ either in the variety of the material or in the sequence, that is why it is not clear what tasks the author pursued. The drawbacks of the primer include рalso a bad, small print, the lack of visual materials. The first textbook «Oku kuraly» («Fiction reading book»), specially published for Kazakh children in 1913, was created by A. Baitursynov. The classic of literature collected in it a greatа amount of data on all areas of science in the twentieth century — chemistry, physics, astrology, literature, geography, mathematics, biology. A. Baitursynov also wrote «Alіppe» («ABC book»).К It is compiled by the sound method. As for the distribution of material, the author followed the general requirements of didactics — from known to unknown, from easy to difficult, which, has to be said, was quite successfully short proverbs and instructive, informative stories about veneration of elders, about prudenceй in actions, about frugality and forbearance, etc. are also placed in the second part of the ABC book. The best textbook on geography was believed to be Maglumat-ulafak, the book in Persian, where it was said that there were four elements: fire, wind, water and earth;и the fire set between the sphere of moon and wind, the wind set between the spheres of wind and earth; the earth is surrounded by the three other elements. Further it was said that there were 7 heavens, р7 planetary systems, 7 belts or parts of the world and 7 seas. From private information, for example, such were reported: «… on Mount Saranzio, there is an imprint of the foot of Adam, in the Indian Sea, there is an islandо on which people with dog heads live…», etc. In Muslim schools, much attention was also paid to the teaching of Tajwid, the main purpose of which was the correct reading of the Quran by studyingт the rules of articulation of Arabic sounds. The most popular textbooks on the history of Islam were «Tarikhi Islam» by A. Mahmud, «Kholasai Tarikhi Islam» by H. Zabiri, a textbookи under the same title by F. Karimov, «Madhaleh Tarikhi Islam» by S. Sungatullin; textbooks on the history of prophets included study guides by M. Khanafi, I. Khalili, Sh. Khamidullin and others. Textbooksз on history among the study guides on humanitarian subjects were the smallest in number; however, in terms of content and structure, they fully corresponded to the requirements of textbooks on history, includingо information about the history of Russia. While teaching literature, attention was also paid to its theory. The first authors of the textbooks on this subject were G. Sagdi,п J. Adutov, G. Ibragimov. «Mukhtasar key age idea tibia» by G. Sagdi, published in 1911 in Ufa and «Adibiet dareslareh» by Galimjan Ibragimov, published in 1916 in Kazan, became the most successful teaching aids on this subject. They described types of works, genres, plot, composition, style, literary analysis,е etc. Teaching of this subject in educational institutions promoted a thorough understanding of the subtleties of literary mastery. InР the Governor-Generalship of the Steppes, teaching was carried out with the help of the same textbooks and teaching aids which included: Arabic philology, Islamic law, religious philosophy, logic, dogmatics, metaphysics with the chapters dedicated to astrology and cosmography, history, geography and other branches of knowledge, in the same way as it was in Central Asia and among Volga Tatars. The history of Kazakh textbooks is closely intertwined with the history of the Tatar books. Before the revolution the center of the Kazakh language printing book was the city of Kazan. Tatar publishers and merchants in particular were engaged in printing books in this language and in distributing them among the Kazakh population. They contributed to the formation and development of the Kazakh national book and 66 Вестник Карагандинского университета To the question of the content of educational… teaching aids for Muslim schools. The first book in Kazakh was published by the Tatar publisher in 1866. It was «Kassai Tamimdar» which was published by a Tatar merchant Sh.
