Turki Jandi

 Assalomu aleykum everyone.👋

Today 6th practice day. We will discuss about Turki Jandi.😊

Let's talk👇

Deep in the old town is the tiny and decrepit Turki Jandi mausoleum, favoured for getting one’s prayers answered. Turki Jandi’s tomb is accessed through the mosque in front of the taller, second cupola. A well inside the mosque contains holy water that locals drink from a cooler near the entrance. Have the chatty mullah show you the sections of original 10th-century Arabic script on the mosque’s doors, allegedly inscribed by Turki Jandi himself.


Turki Jandi Mausoleum has inner dimensions of 4.2 by 4.25 meters, with walls that are 1.5 meters thick. The mausoleum is enclosed on two sides by a dome, with three entrances. The interior walls of the mausoleum are made of brick and adorned with carvings, while the floor is covered with clay. In front of the mausoleum lies the Turki Jandi Mosque. The mosque has a mihrab (prayer niche) on its southwestern side, reaching a height of 1.8 meters. The entrance to the mosque is on the western side, replaced with a new one.


Presently, the mausoleum of Turki Jandi has been destroyed, and places of worship have been constructed in its place. According to the research of the orientalist Komiljon Rahimov, the ruler Shams ul-Mulk Nasr ibn Ibrohim (1068—1080) was buried in this area. On Parfenova-Fenin's map of Bukhara from 1911 to 1912, the site of the mausoleum was marked as "Goʻrxonayi Xoqon".


Our practice day is over👋

Goodbye.
