The historical status of the Mir Arab Madrasah has been restored

The Head of our state visited the Mir Arab Higher Madrasah in Bukhara.
This madrasah has a 500-year history. Many scientists, imams, muftis came out of it. But in the last century, its status declined to the level of a special educational institution. There was dampness in the building, there were not enough books.
Shavkat Mirziyoyev, having arrived here in 2017, saw the situation and set out to restore the historical status of the madrasah. For this purpose, a new building was built and recently commissioned next to the Ark fortress.
The higher madrasah is designed for 200 students. The Koran, Hadith, Fiqh and Tasawwuf sciences, as well as foreign languages are deeply studied here. Today, 107 people study at the madrasah.
All conditions have been created in the classrooms, library, meeting room, student dormitory and service house, gym and swimming pool.
The head of our state talked with the students of the madrasah.
"There are very few educational institutions with such a long history," Shavkat Mirziyoyev said. - I think it was the right thing to improve the conditions in the madrasah and restore historical justice. As a result of our democratic reforms, freedom has also come to the religious sphere. Openness reigns in the information space as well. At the same time, there are various interpretations on the Internet that do not have a scientific basis. But how to convey this knowledge to the immature youth? Such knowledgeable people as you, our imam-khatibs, should prove and explain correctly.
Opinions were expressed on reforming the content and improving the quality of religious education, ensuring its integration with practice.
With this, the President's trip to the Bukhara region ended, the head of state left for Tashkent.
