The Imam Moturidi Complex in Samarkand is being reconstructed for the scholar's 1155th anniversary
Preparations have begun in Uzbekistan for the large-scale celebration of the 1155th anniversary of the birth of the outstanding thinker and founder of one of the Sunni schools of theology, Imam Abu Mansur Maturidi. The corresponding instruction was given by the president of the republic.
As part of the anniversary events, the reconstruction of the Imam Moturidi complex in Samarkand, which bears the scholar's name, is planned. In addition, the search for and study of the thinker's manuscripts abroad will be organized, and an exhibition of rare manuscripts will be held in the Samarqand region, the homeland of Maturidi.
Academic competitions, conferences, and the issuance of souvenirs and postage stamps are planned throughout the republic. Academic translations of Maturidi's works will also be created, and a film dedicated to his life and legacy will be made. The organizing committee must develop an action plan within two weeks.
The Maturidi doctrine, founded by Imam Maturidi, promotes the principles of generosity, moderation, and educating young people in the spirit of patriotism and respect for national and universal values.
