Uzbekistan - Asia
Uzbekistan facts & history in brief
Islam in Uzbekistan
Excerpted from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Islam is by far the dominant religion in Uzbekistan.
In the early 1990s, many of the Russians remaining
in the republic (about 8% of the population) were
Orthodox Christians.
An estimated 93,000 Jews also were present.
Despite its predominance, the practice of
Islam is far from monolithic.
Many versions of the faith have been
practiced in Uzbekistan.
The conflict of Islamic tradition with various
agendas of reform or secularisation throughout
the 20th century has left the outside world
with a confused notion of Islamic
practices in Central Asia.
In Uzbekistan the end of Soviet power did not
bring an upsurge of Islamic fundamentalism, as
many had predicted, but rather a gradual
reacquaintance with the precepts of the faith.
However after 2000, there seems to be a rise
of support in favour of the Islamists.
