HISTORIOGRAPHY AND SOURCE STUDIES OF THE END OF THE 14TH CENTURY – THE SECOND HALF OF THE 15TH CENTURY MADRASAHS IN MOVAROUNNAHR

Abstract

It is known that Amir Temur was far-sighted and attached great importance to the construction of educational institutions for the development of science and culture and an increase in the literate population. For this reason, when going on a campaign through the states, he brought with him to Samarkand mature specialists from these lands (scientist, architect, poet, calligrapher, cover artist). Naturally, he created a good environment for them because it was a priority issue. This article provides valuable information about the study and source study of madrasahs built in Movarunnahr during the Timurids period.
