A 17-hectare fortress and the life of rulers… What does the scientifically presented exhibit in the “Ancient Khorezm Civilization” exhibition of the Islamic Civilization Center museum in Uzbekistan signify?

Abu Rayhan Biruni is one of the great thinkers who produced unparalleled discoveries in world science in his time. His scientific legacy is of immense significance not only for Central Asia but for the development of human civilization as a whole. In particular, the astronomical diagrams and scientific conclusions presented in his work At-Tafhim were unprecedented innovations for their era. This rare exhibit from the history of astronomy can be seen at the Islamic Civilization Center in Uzbekistan.

Every manuscript that has come down to us from the depths of centuries is not merely paper and ink, but a reflection of the intellect, heart, and spiritual world of an entire era. Created in the 15th century, Risalay-i Qudsiyya is one of such rare works, vividly revealing the early theoretical form of the Naqshbandiyya teaching and the harmony of thought, silence, and action in Sufism. Today, as this manuscript is exhibited at the Islamic Civilization Center in Uzbekistan, it invites not only scholars but everyone interested in spiritual heritage on an enlightening journey across centuries.
