the Andijan prison together with Ibrat 
Ishakhan. 
It is noteworthy that Ishakhan Ibrat worked 
closely with a number of Jadids to develop a 
new method of education, visited schools 
founded by several Jadids, and became 
acquainted with their activities. In particular, at 
the 
invitation 
of 
Munawwarkuri, 
he 
participated several times in the examinations 
of his school in Tashkent. In 1907 Munawarara 
wrote a letter of invitation to Ishak Khan:
"Dear Mr. Ishak Khan! 
In May 1907 the annual examinations of 
the pupils at the "Khonia" School of 
Tarnovboshi mahalla in Tashkent began. We 
respectfully assure you that teachers and 
pupils would be pleased if you would attend 
the examinations with the principals of the 
Jadid schools of your penitential method. 
 
YOUR BELOVED ENLIGHTENED ONE. MARCH 
15, 1907: 
According to this proposal, Ishak Khan 
Ibrat will be in Tashkent for a few months with 
his relatives, the advanced teachers Hussein 
Makayev, the teacher of Mullah Iskandar 
Abduvahob oglu. They will be in Tashkent not 
only in Methodist schools but also in ancient 
Methodist 
schools. 
The 
newspaper 
“Turkestanskie novosti” published a series of 
articles about the "Usuli Jadid" and "Usuli 
Kadim" schools of Ishak Khan Ibrat. 
If we look at the school founded by Ishak 
Khan Ibrat in Turakurgan, the school had a 
system of education based on the "usuli jadid" 
(savtiya method), which was quite new and 
effective for that period. From the conversation 
between Ishak Khan Ibrat and Mulla 
Khusankhoja, a schoolboy from Tashkent, we 
see that during this period there was an acute 
struggle and contradiction in school education 
between the "modern method" and the 
"ancient method". In 1907, he came to 
Tashkent at the invitation of Ishak Khan Ibrat 
Munavvar Khori and for several months visited 
the Methodist Jadid schools in the city, as well 
as Methodist schools, including the school of 
Mullah Khusankhoja, where he was introduced 
to his work. The discussion between Mullah 
Khusankhoja and Ibrat was published in the 
Turkestan 
regional 
newspaper. 
Mullah 
Khusankhodzha, a teacher, slightly reformed 
his school, declaring it a "Jadid school" and 
encouraging the children of his people to 
attend his school.
Mullah Husankhoja did not "reform" his 
school and did not make many positive 
changes. At the same time that Saidrasul 
Saidazizov's textbooks Ustodi Avwal and 
Munavwarkori's Adibi Avwal were published 
on the basis of the "savtiya" method, very 
popular in the education of children of the 
people, this teacher taught the psychology and 
psychology of young children. He teaches 
books such as "Haftiyak", "Kalomi Sharif", 
"Chor Kitab", "Islamic faith", which are not 
suitable for his level and age. Understanding 
the essence of this school, which is not 
significantly different from the old scholastic 
schools, Ishak Khan Ibrat is very angry at the 
"jadid maktabdor " (serious schoolmaster) 
Mullah Husankhodja, who sees his school as 
one open to deceive the children of the people 
and attract more people. children and earn 
more money. In schools like those of Mullah 
Husankhodja at that time, the basis of 
education was dry rote learning, textbooks far 
removed from the demands of the times. That 
is why Ishak Khan Ibrat deeply regretted that 
such schools ruined the lives of the people's 
children: "The teacher under the pretext of 
beating and beating our poor dear children for 
five or ten days looked up to the sky and 
shouted:"Alif bezawar, alif bazawar"., It was 
only a matter of time before they would 
squander their lives without a single 
instruction" [8].
