are sung, the epochs have gone so far as to interpret it differently. However, in Uzbek poetry,
from Yusuf Khos Hajib to Cholpon, poetry has expressed its time for both divine, social and
political purposes. As a result, Islamic ideas manifested syncretically:
The events that tormented the poet do not give him a moment's peace. The dream of seeing the
destiny of the nation and its bright future shines in it. The fact that nothing is left of "human
kindness" refers to the fate of the Turks in the midst of socio-political "games". The fact that this
land was once "Muslim" makes him unhappy. Indeed, in the history of twentieth-century
humanity, the idea of "religion is a pity" has alienated humanity from its original identity. How
many calamities have befallen the wise who have the same goal of faith and belief. As a result of
the "brainwashing mechanism", the one-sided interpretation of Sharia and Islamic ideas has
intensified. The original abominable motives underlying this were to destroy any ideas aimed at
preserving the nation's identity. It is no coincidence that the original creators, such as Askar
Mahkam, wrote poems inspired by such great people as Jalaliddin Rumi. The main idea reflected
in the theme and content of the poem is the promotion of perfection! "If at the beginning of the
twentieth century the classical poetry of the East did not lose its prestige and influence, of
course, it would be different to understand it, to know its inner secrets, to master its unique
qualities" (I. Gafurov). Just as the value of poetry cannot be equated with material wealth, the
Islamic ideas in it are more useful only if they are aimed at knowing Allah. The philosophical
and aesthetic scope of Askar Mahkam's experiences is extremely wide and varied.
Discussion and result. It is impossible to single out the application of Islamic ideas in a broad
and narrow sense. Because there are so many sources about it. The main idea reflected in these
sources is measured by the focus on personal upbringing. Regardless of the work of any poet in
the history of Uzbek literature of the twentieth century, it is possible to focus on two aspects:
poems written under the influence of the pure Qur'an, and the second under the influence of
hadiths. Poems influenced by the works of Alisher Navoi, which are reflected in the works of
Alisher Navoi in different periods, are also found in many modern poets. The aim is to explain
the essence of the verses in the suras in an ozone way. The original idea is not to put a big
symbolic wall between the reader, but to bring it closer to the reader's heart:
This poem sounds different in A. Navoi. The poet re-perceives this poem as a beautiful form of
hadith. The concepts of animal and man, man and ignorant find expression in the combinations
of food and speech. How is man different from an animal? As the poet taught, one should not
know that one’s life consists only in eating and drinking. The wisdom of "Eating what you put in

front of you is the work of an animal" is encouraged in A. Navoi's work to be an example for a
person who does not have moral qualities. Such examples are very common.
You will probably get tired of walking around this city
And yet you are dealing with Allah.
Mistake-mistake you found Mecca,
Now, if you get lost, where will you go?
A. Aripov's interpretations glorify the fact that everyone lives by drawing conclusions from their
mistakes, and works tirelessly to consciously justify the name of the Prophet. Because a person
tends to make mistakes. It is difficult for those who are weak in faith to give up such a defect.
That is why the poet is deeply disturbed in the poem, "Now, if you get lost, where will you go?"
Prof. I. Hakkulov writes: “The main calamity and tragedy in the eyes of the mystical artists of
the East ... This is the bad side of the world and the "ideology" of worldliness. This is where
people are divided into two poles. One is the people of this world, the other is the people of
meaning, or the people of the hereafter. The misunderstanding and misinterpretation of the
examples of our classical poetry in the Soviet era led to a misunderstanding and distortion of the
meaning of the concept of the "hereafter". That is why when the word "end" is used, many
people leave the world and look at life with contempt and social consciousness. Indeed, in
addition to this quote, it should be noted that in the last century there has never been a period of
monotony in our literature, and especially of ideological "strikes" in poetry. Not to mention the
distortion of classics. While the synthesis of Western and Eastern traditions in the poetry of the
new period was a stage for the understanding of the Almighty, the socio-political marches
towards the realization of national identity remained in history as the second stage. No one can
deny that.
In the lyrics of the poet R. Parfi we can see a modern form of Islamic ideas. The meaning of the
lines, which seem so easy, is overwhelming. The verses such as "O Allah, do you know where I
have gone, O Allah, ... I am dead ... I have done to you ..." fully confirm the above
considerations. Poets are very concerned about the loss of compassion, honor, and religion, their
separation from the body, and the transformation of the body's primary function into something
else.
In the poetry of Shavkat Rahmon, I. Otamurod, H. Davron, oppression and betrayal are strongly
condemned, and poets of the former Soviet Union are also criticized. The change of the times
has now put great themes in front of the creators. They are characterized by the elimination of
socio-political constraints and the singing of the flag of the original nation.
Mirzo Kenjabek, a talented poet who created many translations and poems during the
independence period, breathes the breath of Islamic ideas, and the most basic principle, such as
unconditional obedience to the command of God, sounds unique:
When you say sorrow, you mean worldly sorrows,
Keep the feelings of the hereafter pure,
Don't get used to laughter,
There is a broken heart on your side.
In the works of the famous poet Mirzo Kenjabek, themes such as right and wrong, oppression
and evil are sung in deep philosophical observations. In particular, each of his allusions is sung
at the height of the Shari'a and the principles of secular equality in order to be a true Muslim in
today's turbulent world. There are many examples that encourage us to think about real life, free
from ordinary daily worries. An example of such a description is the line "Do not be indifferent
to strangers with soil verbs." It is not difficult to feel that the poet, who held this aspect firmly as
a banner, was greatly influenced by the works of classical thinkers such as Rumi, Navoi, Ogahi,
Mashrab.
Conclusion. In conclusion, it should be noted that the radical turn in our country at the end of
the twentieth century has radically changed the theme and content of fiction. This aspect gave
the literature new themes. The variety and brevity in the expression also combined the way in
which the representatives of the poetry of this period described the general mood. The radiance
of the word and its meaning, manners and ethics, the unity of the world and the universe began
to resonate even in a modern tone. In particular, the drastic changes taking place in the psyche of
the individual demonstrated the structure of interpretation. Indeed, the concept of longevity has
not only become one of the cores of Islamic poetry, but it has also expanded the ability to
express the true purpose of knowing the Creator in a harmonious way.
