History
[edit]Dor ul-Juzjoniya madrasah was founded in Samarkand in the 9th century by Muhaddis Abu Bakr Suleiman az-Juzjony. This higher educational institution was one of the major centers of science in Samarkand in the 10th-12th centuries.[1] The work of the madrasah began in the 9th century. The Madrasah was crowded with students like "Minor Madrasah" in the 9th-12th centuries. Abul Fath Salih was the teacher and imam of Dar ul-Juzjonia madrasah. He taught students the science of hadith and jurisprudence. Research scientist Abdusattar Jumanazar studied a number of documents and sources related to this madrasa and provided information related to it. In the madrasah, the classes started early in the morning were called as "subaiha". In Najmuddin Umar al-Nasafi's work "Al-Qand", this madrasah was citated in 18 places. Many famous scholars of Samarkand grew up in this madrasah. Abu Mansur al-Maturidi also studied at Dor ul-Juzhoniya madrasah. There was also a cemetery of the same name near the Juzjonia madrasah. According to the researcher Durbek Rahimjonov, the madrasah was one of the centers of hadith where muhaddis worked in the 11th-12th centuries. In the madrasa, classes were conducted in the fields of tafsir (interpretation of Qur'an), hadith, and literature. Caliphs (assistants) helped to teachers in teaching at Dar ul-Juzhoniya madrasah. In particular, the famous jurist Hamza ibn Ali al-Haylami, the writer Abu Muhammad Abdujalil al-Yazukhkati al-Sakkak and a number of other scholars worked as caliphs in the madrasa. Foundation properties was allocated for the madrasa. Dar ul-Juzhoniya madrasa was definitely managed on the basis of the regulations specified in the foundation document of that time, and the teachers were also appointed on this basis.[2]
