Abstract

The spiritual heritage of these great Oriental thinkers and prominent figures of medieval Muslim culture is invaluable for the Turkic peoples, since it serves as an ideological and theoretical basis for their modern spiritual and socio-political culture. Reflections of the great Nizami Ganjavi and Alisher Navoi in their famous works about the role and significance of human individuality, the richness and complexity of the human soul, about moral choice, the search for love and happiness, the path to moral perfection, about a just, ideal society, and the role of a wise ruler, are based on deep belief in the capabilities of the human mind and are therefore of enduring importance. Humanity, freedom of moral choice, the supremacy of reason and knowledge are the fundamental principles in the works of the Oriental thinkers, determining the humanistic direction of their work.
