Mausoleum
of Hakim Termizi
Тhe cult and
memorial complex Hakim Termezi in Termez had developed at a tomb of the scholar
and sheih Abu Abdallah Muhammad Termezi, living in the 9th century A.D. who
survived through the sudden turns of fortune, but even among his contemporaries
he found recognition for theological knowledge and a piety mode of life:
Later
he was recognized as a spiritual patron of Termez (Termez-ata). Geometrical and
styled vegetative motifs combined with epigraphic inscriptions in Kufi. Later,
in the north the mosque with mikhrab was built up. In the 15th century in the
mausoleum magnificent carved gravestone of marble and monumental two-portal
khonaka with big dome were installed. It is possible, that it appeared on a
place of previously more modest khonaka. The architectural complex during
centuries attracted numerous pilgrims, quite often arriving here even from the
left bank of the Amu Darya.
