INTRODUCTION

In the years of independence, attention has been paid

to the study and illumination of the history of Islam,

religious teachings and the activities of their founders,

which have helped to preserve universal and spiritual

values, which are a component of human spirituality,

and to pass them down from generation to generation.

In the Middle Ages, Bukhara, the birthplace of Imam al-

Bukhari, was recognized as "Qubbatul Islam", i.e.

"Dome of Islam", in the words of scholars, "Islam, the

religion of strength", and was considered one of the

most respected centers in the entire Muslim world. As

Mir Muhammad Amin Bukhari wrote in his work

"Ubaidullanama", "Bukhara was a city where famous

scholars, scientists and writers of their time, people

with various professions that were not found in other

countries gathered."

Indeed, Bukhara was a major center of science. Among

the religious leaders who came to Bukhara, there were

also the ancestors of the Khojas of Khojabor. The major

representatives of the Khojas of Khojabor are Khoja

Muhammad Islam Khojabori, Khoja Abu Bakr Sa'd,

Khoja Tajiddin Hasan and Khoja Abdurakhim Khojabori.

Khoja Abdurakhim Joybori is one of the great

representatives who occupied an important place in

the social and political life of the Bukhara Khanate,

made a significant contribution to strengthening the

economic power of the family of the Khojas of

Khojabor, and strengthening their political position. He

is the grandson of Khoja Muhammad Islam and is the

second son of Khwaja Abu Bakr Sa'd.

Khwaja Tajiddin Hasan's brother Khoja Abdurakhim

was also a person with special influence and prestige in

the khanate. Like his ancestors, he was a large

landowner. In addition to the inherited properties left

by his father, his estates increased year by year due to

the properties donated by the Khans of Bukhara. Khoja

Abdurakhim's "... property consisted of 800 acres of

land, 14 cattle ranches, 15 rows of camels, one

thousand horses, 8 cisterns, 2 luxury palaces, 7

timchas, several mills, and 400 slaves. 2 Khoja

Abdurakhim received 100 thousand man of grain

harvest and 40 thousand khani (coins) of net income

from his land.

It can be seen that Khoja Abdurakhim's estates

differed in terms of quantity from the estates of other

Khojabor Khojas. It is known that in order to increase

their prestige and wealth, Khojas of Khojabor paid

great attention to establishing kinship ties with the

ruler and his descendants. Among them, the sister of

Vali Muhammad was the wife of Khoja Abdi, younger

brother of Khoja Tajiddin Hasan. After the death of

Khoja Abdi, the khan gave his sister in marriage to

Khoja Abdurakhim. At that time, Khwaja Abdurakhim

was gifted several villages as suurghol. At the same

time, the Khan and his relatives used the influence and

prestige of the noble Khojas in order to strengthen

their position.

Nevertheless, disagreements arose between Khoja

Abdurakhim and Imam Qulikhan in the 20s of the 18th

century for unknown reasons. As a result, Imam Quli

Khan issued an order to inspect all the property of

Khoja Abdurakhim. Judges Mirzobek and Shomurod

Yasovull are involved in these inspections. Shockingly,

both inspectors' investigations were inconclusive.

Three days after visiting him, Shamurod fell ill and died.

Qazi Mirzobek was killed by Shukur Kipchak. "In these

two events, the economic and political power of the

Joybori family is shown and the moral inviolability

recognized and recognized by the people."

After this attitude of Imam Qulikhan, Khwaja

Abdurakhim decided to leave Bukhara. At the same

time, internal conflicts in India in the state of Baburi

became a convenient excuse for Khoja Abdurahim to

leave Bukhara.

During this period, conflicts between Babur Jahangir

(1605-1627) and his son Shahjahan (1627-2658)

intensified in India. Khoja Abdurakhim asks permission

to go to India from Imam Qulikhan to end the conflict

and disagreement between father and son and to

reconcile them. To this proposal of Imamkuli Khan

Khoja: "... you have been doing such things since your

ancestors. These things are your work"4 - he agrees. A

special letter was prepared by Imam Kul Khan for Khoja

Abdurakhim's trip to India, according to which he was

supposed to perform the service of event reporter and

ambassador during this trip.

The following words were written in the letter: "Khoja

Abdurakhim from Pokzod received many compliments,

and with warmth and good will towards the

ambassadors, we mobilized him to the service of

chronicling the trip to India. Khoja Abdurakhim, from

crossing the border and starting this job, from the

beginning to the end of his service, captures and

describes all the various events that happened in every

property and every place, and brings it to the Supreme

Throne every day."

Khoja Abdurakhim ruled the Safavid state (Iran) and

moved towards India. When he arrived in Isfahan, he

was received with honor by Shah Abbas (1629), feasts

were organized in his honor, and various gifts were

presented. Then they moved towards Kabul. The

Governor of Kabul Province, Zafar Khan, welcomed

him with great respect, showed him compliments, and

accompanied him to the Indian city of Lahore.

Khoja Abdurakhim was solemnly welcomed in India by

Babur Jahangirshah. Jahangirshah gave a solemn

banquet in honor of Khoja Abdurakhim. Before leaving,

he presented Eshon with a belt and dagger decorated

with precious stones, expensive clothes and 50,000

rupees in cash.

In addition, Jahangirshah's wife Nurjahan Begum, Osaf

Khan and Abdukhasan officials each donated 10,000

rupees in cash to Khoja Abdurakhim. Jahangirshah also

took Khoja Abdurakhim on a walk to the Kashmir

region. However, the Kashmir region was the last

destination for Khoja Abdurakhim. The story writing

task assigned to him has not yet been completed.

He died in Kashmir in 1628 and was buried here in the

Chagar region. Later, his son Khoja Muhammad Siddiq

was brought to Bukhara by ambassadors led by Hokim

Khaziq and buried in Sumiton. Khoja Abdurakhim left

two sons and six daughters. All his property was

distributed to his children by his brother Khoja Tajiddin

Hasan. Khoja Abdurakhim was a creative person like his

descendants. He started building a large mosque in the

city of Bukhara, but with his death, the construction

work was not completed.

Khoja Abdurakhim Joybori lived and worked in difficult

times. During this period, disputes, conspiracies, and

quarrels were raging in the khanate. On top of that, the

actions of the local officials and nobles who owned

large estates grew stronger. This situation led to the

weakening of the central government. Therefore,

Khoja Abdurakhim fought to end mutual disputes and

quarrels, to maintain peace and tranquility in the

country, and to strengthen the central authority.

In short, he said that Khoja Abdurakhim was a person

who had his place in the history of Bukhara Khanate

and Joybor dynasty. The main one of those services

was the embassy. Like his ancestors, he did great

service in maintaining peace and tranquility not only in

the territory of the Khanate, but also in the

neighboring countries. His role and contribution in

resolving disputes between Baburizadas, ensuring

mutual agreement and developing mutual relations

between India and Bukhara Khanate was very great.
