Lecture of the day:

 

Allen J. Frank (independant researcher):

Muslim Hagiographic Experiences in the Former Soviet Realm:

10) A Turkmen Verse Hagiography from the Niyazov Era

 

Turkmenistan, like the other former Soviet republics of Central Asia, has undergone its own variety of ‘re-Islamisation’ since the late 1980s. The difficulty of doing research in Turkmenistan, and the small number of religious publications, especially after 2000, have not encouraged or facilitated the study of Turkmen religious practices, even though it is generally recognized that shrine pilgrimage and Sufi practices are particularly important for Turkmen religious life and social organisation. One of our only insights into literary sources on Turkmen pilgrimage is a verse hagiography published as a 35-page pamphlet titled Ak Ishan, containing a verse hagiography of an Ahal-Teke saint who lived in the first half of the nineteenth century.
