The famous historian and scientist Mukminova Roziya Galiyevna was born on
December 31, 1922. Her father was Mukminov Gali Mirgaliyevich, a servant. Her mother,
Mukminova Khadicha Shigabiddinovna, was a housewife. In 1939, Mukminova graduated
from high school with excellent grades and was admitted to the Faculty of History of the
Central Asian State University. At this university, young students would get to know in
detail the distant and recent periods of history, the complex and attractive aspects for the
first time. While studying at the university, she was lucky to listen to meaningful lectures
of many famous scientists evacuated to Tashkent during the Second World
War like S.V. Bakhrushin, V.I. Belyayev, B.D. Grekov, M.V. Nechkina, I.P. Petrushevsky,
E.M. Peshcherova, A.Y. Yakubovsky and M.S. Andreev, A.A. Semenov. She mastered all
subjects during her student years. In 1944, Mukminova graduated from this faculty with
honors, and in 1944 she was admitted to postgraduate studies at the newly established
Institute of History of the Academy of Sciences of Uzbekistan.
In this period, one of the most important and urgent issues of the science of history
was to study the history of Central Asia in more detail. This, in turn, required the training
of mature specialists in the history of Central Asia. Based on this need, R.G. Mukminova
was sent to Leningrad
–
a major center of Oriental studies.
Here she met the great scholar of the history of medieval society I.P. Petrushevsky
and conducted scientific research under the leadership of him.
In 1949 young researcher defended successfully her candidate's thesis at the Institute
of Oriental Studies of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR (Leningrad) on the topic
"The Struggle between Timurids and Shaybani for Movarunnahr". Official opponents
–
A.Y. Yakubovsky and N.D. Miklukho-Maclays highly appreciated the scientist's research.
A scientist who started her scientific career as a junior researcher at the History
Institute of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Uzbekistan later worked as a
senior researcher, department head, and head of the research group at the same
institution. The history of agrarian relations was one of the issues that has found its
scientific description by scientists in recent years. In 1966 her monograph was out of
print: "From the history of agrarian relations of 16th century Uzbekistan, based on the
materials of the "Vaqfnoma". In it, the researcher was able to prove, based on
documentary evidence, the characteristic features of the vaqf institution, the gradual
growth of the vaqf economy, especially during the Shaybani and Ashtarkhani eras, and
the cases of illegal acquisition of the vaqf lands by persons who had a high position in the
studied period.

Later, the scientist was able to collect concrete materials related to the life and
activities of craftsmen, who were a large layer of medieval society, and by critical
studying she wrote her doctoral dissertation on the topic of "XVI century crafts of
Samarkand and Bukhara" in 1971.
One of the major issues in Mukminova's scientific work is the history of
Uzbekistan's cities. Based on the research of written sources, as well as archeological and
ethnographic materials, and museum exhibits she made a great contribution to the study

commercial, economic and cultural center of Central Asia.
The researcher was one of the main authors of such works as "History of
Samarkand" (1969), "History of Bukhara" (1976), and "History of Tashkent" (1988),
which were warmly welcomed by the scientific community. The main issues such as the
economy and socio-political life in the cities of Uzbekistan in the Middle Ages were
covered in the parts written by the scholar. She was also the author of the scientist's
work "Tashkent four centuries ago" (1984).
In 1976, the historian-scientist published "Snapshots from the history of
handicrafts of 16th century Samarkand and Bukhara" aimed at researching the problems
related to handicrafts, which played an important role in the life of medieval society. Her
work was brought to the attention of the scientific community. This work was highly
appreciated by the scientific community, including the famous Oriental scholar
K.Z. Ashrafyan: "This book not only enriches our imagination of the medieval city but also
shows the ways of future concrete research on the economic and social history of Eastern
countries". In 1985, as a result of the continuation of the scientist's research on the
history of medieval cities "Differentiation of the population of the cities of Uzbekistan in
the 15th-16th centuries" her work was out of print.
She was also one of the authors of many volumes "History of Uzbekistan".
