For Muslims in Russia Bukhara’s prestige was manifested in genealogies, fashion, and in the elevated legal status of Bukharan communities in Russia. The historical relationship of Russia’s Muslim communities with Bukhara was founded above all on Bukhara’s reputation as a holy city of Islam, an abode of great Sufis, and a center of Islamic scholarship. The emergence of Islamic reformism critiquing Bukhara’s sacred status, led by Tatar scholars who were trained in Bukhara, created a number of paradoxes. The symbol of Bukhara became an important feature in theological and political debates among Russia’s Muslims.Brill's Inner Asian Library26.IslamRussia (Federation)MuslimsRussia (Federation)SufismRussia (Federation)IslamMuslimsSufism305.6/9709587Frank Allen J.1964-1165609MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910807690403321Bukhara and the Muslims of Russia4007704UNINA
