Abstract
Abstract This chapter places two influential Muslim intellectual leaders of reform in Bukhara, Abdalrauf Fitrat (1886–1938) and Sadriddin Aini (1878–1954), in the context of Jadidism and its historical and religious contexts. Jadidism does not refer to a singular, unified group but rather defines a cultural phenomenon in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, leading up to the Bolshevik (October) Revolution. After the Bolshevik Revolution, conditions drastically changed in the goals and possibilities for reform. Jadidism was a grassroots reform movement focused on educational reform. Both Fitrat and Aini were members of the Jadids; Fitrat was more in line with the majority viewpoints of the group, and Aini offered more internal critiques of the movement. The profiles of Fitrat and Aini are offered as case studies within the Jadid reform movement in order to illuminate debates and diversity within Jadidism, while also showcasing their later impact as national and literary heroes (Uzbek for Fitrat, Tajik for Aini) and the Soviet interpretations of their history.
