Waqf - One of the Original Forms of Land Ownership
Kurmanjan Datka

Waqf - One of the Original Forms of Land Ownership

When examining the documents regarding the waqf of the Alymbek madrasa, it is hard not to agree that the founders of such property were not only sedentary agriculturalists but also nomadic feudal lords. The representatives of the poor had a completely different attitude towards this form of land ownership. They viewed waqf as a tool of cruel exploitation. This traditional attitude was reflected in the preservation of certain rituals.

Soon A. Sydykov resigned, as the Provisional Government disappointed the expectations of the indigenous masses and did not stop the repressions. By its decree of March 14, 1917, it upheld all imperial decrees that protected colonial orders: "all acts of the supreme administration that occurred before February 27 are to be considered legal." On April 19, the Turkestan Committee of the Provisional Government adopted a resolution prohibiting Kyrgyz and Kazakh refugees from China from

Difficult Situation with Electricity Supply in the First Period of World War II in Kyrgyzstan

On September 12, 1941, the Council of People's Commissars of the Kyrgyz SSR established a new housing norm in cities — 5 square meters instead of the previously accepted 8.25 square meters. This allowed for the accommodation of only 1,200 families of evacuees and military personnel in Frunze through densification. Alongside this, residential buildings of simplified types — barracks, dormitories, and semi-earth houses — were being constructed everywhere. Workers and employees of relocated

Speech by the residents of Uzgen On July 25, the residents of Uzgen spoke out. The protest lasted until July 29. Participants, armed with sickles, pitchforks, sticks, and other tools, threatened to kill the village elders and demanded the issuance of household lists. Fifteen police officers and a punitive detachment who arrived at the scene did not dare to use weapons and engage in battle with the rebels, and were forced to lock themselves in the office of the volost administration.

Viability of Waqf Institutions As the volost manager and mutawalli of the Alymbek Datka madrasa, Hasanbek had numerous opportunities for various abuses, which he did not hesitate to exploit. The villagers who cultivated the waqf land until 1898 (according to other sources, until 1894) paid rent to the waqf institution. As a result, by the end of the 19th century, even the biased imperial court initiated a legal case against the abuses of volost manager Hasanbek based on complaints from the

Struggle for Power Among Individual Exploitative Groups With the overthrow of Tsarism (according to political scientist Zh. Medvedev, the February Revolution occurred without the participation of any parties or revolutionaries, driven by the spontaneous discontent of the residents of Petrograd and Moscow due to the sharp devaluation of the ruble, which caused hunger), the illusion revived in Kyrgyzstan that the new power would end mass repressions.

State Structure In written sources, the state of Mogulistan or its regions, occupied by tribes and clan associations, were referred to as vilayet, bilad, mamlakat, yurt, ulus, and el (il). These terms were used in conjunction with the names of khans, rulers, or ethnonyms. The head of state was the khan, whose throne was inherited. He was elected by the emirs, leaders of tribes headed by the ulusbek of the country. The strength of the khan's power depended on the state of external and

The Uprising of 1916 in Kyrgyzstan The Uprising of 1916 in Kyrgyzstan was an organic part of the movement of the peoples of Central Asia, Kazakhstan, and some other national outskirts of Tsarist Russia, involving more than 10 million people. In Kyrgyzstan, especially in its northern regions, where the indigenous population was displaced from their settled lands, it took on an unprecedented scale and mass character. The protests here were marked by their duration and persistence. This uprising,

Preservation of the Waqf of Alimbek after the Fall of the Kokand Khanate

Attempts to Circumvent Legislation on the Expansion of Waqf The conversion of real estate into waqf, as noted above, served as a guarantee of the inviolability of property from encroachments by khans and other feudal lords. This inviolability extended to waqf property in the early years after the annexation of Fergana to Russia. A sufficient illustration of this is the following fact. The land in the Bash-Bulak area, which was owned by Abdullabek as a private owner, where peasants lived with

There were 161 trading shops on them. In the same year, 1875, Khudoyar-khan issued a special document freeing the mentioned lands, as well as the donated trading shops, from taxes.

The fact that Alymbek had, in addition to the waqf property, other plots of land in the same Fergana can be inferred from the repeatedly encountered mentions in waqf documents (waqf-nama) and purchase deeds (vasikas) regarding Alymbek's land parcels bordering other properties.

The rebels fought against colonial oppression for national freedom, not for the religion of Islam. It is worth noting that the insurgents did not harm Russian peasants who practiced a different religion. They attacked the tsarist military personnel, seeing in them the enforcers of colonial power, not because they were Russian and
