Today I will tell you about Shaykh Mirzo Ahmad Khushnazar Termiziy.
This man's name is Mirzo Kenjaboyev.
Mirzo aka was born on February 20, 1956. In Surkhandarya. In Sariosiyo district. In a village called Mehnat (“Labor”). Why the village was given this name is unknown to me, but its original name was surely something else. For “labor” was a political tool of the red empire. Perhaps they renamed some ancient village “Labor” — that is unclear to me. But it is certain that Mirzo aka was born in this village.
And what is also certain: Surkhandarya is a river of enlightenment. The land of saints. The soil where the Companions first set foot in our country. So many saints are buried there that it is as if the scent of our Prophet ﷺ lingers in the air.
One of Termez's famous historical names was “Madinat ar-Rijal,” that is, the city of true men. Termez was a home of young men who would never surrender to the enemy.
Surkhandarya is a story of its own, and Mirzo aka is one of the heroes who enters this story in a remarkable way.
Mirzo aka is, first of all, a poet. A rare talent. A master of words. If there must be a jeweler, this man is a true jeweler of words. His poems are real poems — a spring of wisdom.
Mirzo aka could have been a superb poet and stopped there. But he made his aspiration great — probably when he was over 40, he studied at the Higher Islamic Institute in Tashkent, learned Arabic and immersed himself in the religious sciences. He held on to the hem of great masters.
As a result, after many years of spiritual discipline and devoted labor, today he has become the author of the tafsir called “Fayz al-Furqan.”
Mirzo aka is one of the few gnostics of our country. One of the brave men whose heart holds concern for the Homeland and love for the nation. One of those who have manfully taken the burden of faith upon their shoulders.
Mirzo aka also has the pen name Mirzo Ahmad Khushnazar Termiziy.
Mirzo aka's knowledge and labor have been set down in several books.
How fortunate that some of these books still exist. Sadly, our reading public is unaware of them and has not benefited from them. By chance, a list of those books came into my hands, and I decided to share it with you. On this occasion I have also written what I know about Mirzo aka.
