A model of the mausoleum of Khoja Ahmad Yasawi is planned to be displayed in the exhibition of the Center of Islamic Civilization in Uzbekistan. This model is not a mere exhibit, but a symbol representing an entire era’s religious and spiritual life, the architectural flourishing of Amir Temur’s time, and the spiritual unity of Turkic peoples.

A unique dagger created in India in the 18th century, reflecting the high craftsmanship traditions of the Mughal era, is expected to be displayed for the first time in the exhibition of the Center of Islamic Civilization in Uzbekistan.

In Nizami Ganjavi’s famous poem Layla and Majnun, the tale is told of Nawfal, a wealthy nobleman who fights on behalf of Majnun. In order to win Layla back, he confronts her tribe in battle. Yet despite his victory, Layla’s father refuses to give his daughter to Majnun, whom he considered “mad”.

The Center of Islamic Civilization in Uzbekistan today serves as a leading institution for safeguarding our nation’s spiritual heritage, advancing scientific research, and presenting it to the wider public. Through new exhibitions, the Center not only showcases valuable artifacts of the Islamic world but also creates unique opportunities for the scholarly study of history and culture.
