## History

[edit]

The madrasah was built at the beginning of the 19th century in Kokilayi Hord Guzar of the capital of Bukhara Emirate, during the reign of the Uzbek ruler Haydar (1885–1910), with the funds of Hasan Akhund ibn Khal az-Zarir al-Bukhari (Domulla Hasan).[2][3]

Domulla Hasan was born in 1779. During the eras of Amir Haydar and Amir Nasrullah Khan, he first worked as a mufti, taught at the Kokaldosh madrasa and rose to the rank of rector. He died on 21 June 1857, at the age of 78. After that, his son Abdulhaq was appointed as the headmaster of this madrasah.[3]

After the establishment of the Soviet rule, the education of students in the madrasah was terminated.

According to the State program developed in 2010, the research of the madrasa in 2011, the emergency division of its parts into parts, structural strengthening, restoration and repair, and the beautification of its territory were planned, and 5 million soums were allocated for the purpose of these works.[4]
