Islam shared with Turmush that he and his wife have been running a household together for 11 years and are raising six children: four daughters and two sons. "In this contest, no one received first place, but we were told that we all did well and were wished kind words. Each of us was recognized in our nomination. I would advise the youth: to create an exemplary family, there needs to be harmony, respect, and love in the home. Then happiness will not keep you waiting," noted Islam.
The couple recounted that their first meeting took place at a wedding in the village of Nur, where Islam was performing as a musician. "I always took my equipment with me to entertain the guests. At one of those weddings, I met Ryskul, who is from Kara-Bulak. I was born in 1987 in Kichi-Kemin, and she was born in 1989. We liked each other and got married in 2014. My wife has a wonderful character: she is cheerful, calm, and balanced. She cooks katlama and manti so deliciously that you can't help but lick your fingers. We understand and respect each other, and that has helped us achieve such harmony," Islam shared.
Now he is engaged in livestock farming and plays in the "Borulu" team in the traditional game ulak tartysh. They participate in various competitions and take prize places, as well as breed thoroughbred horses and Taigans (a breed of dog). Islam does not forget about hunting, protecting his livestock from predators.
Ryskul, for her part, is engaged in handicrafts, and in the summer, the whole family goes to the jailoo (mountain pastures), where she milks cows and mares, as well as makes kaymak. "Our life is full of emotions and takes place in the atmosphere of the village, among people, in the fresh air, with songs and laughter," he added.
