No the most American thing is hearing the word communism and saying “Stalin evil 100 million dead everybody were forced to share!!” and then they talk to a Russian who says “moj babushka loved Stalin the most!”
@@daseapickleofjustice7231 I don’t understand the point you’re trying to make. Old Russian people are conservatives because a lot of them lived in the Stalinist era, and for them their experience during that period are what they remember their childhood to be like/how they were raised. Lots of people in Russia today definitely do not support Stalin, and he’s seen as a tyrannical figure. Please read about the de-stalinization era in Russia after his death.
@@SenkaBandit ‼️ Be careful, this is a false comment. The figure of Stalin in Russia is of great importance for his contribution. And there are polling centers that record that the majority of the population treats Stalin positively. The so-called "de-Stalinization" is a denial of history and its context, as well as an attempt to shift all responsibility to other people. I've never respected people like you.

My surname is Bokhari, which means FROM Bokhara. Greetings to all Bokhari's both Jewish and Moslem. ... who in many parts of the world have lived together in peace and harmony for hundreds of years. Not only in Bokhara, but in Spain, in Istambul, in Bagdad, in Iran... I enjoyed the video and the stories shared by Mr. Aaron Salaam/Shalom!
My Family Mullokandov lived around Samarkand, Tashkent and Dushanbe we ware Buhkarian Jew and have a long tradition of living with and around muslim and christians! We are all the same people!
There is not one jew who hates dislikes muslims, infact most jews really dont care about other people We arent obsessed with other people we mind our own business
We can only controll our own actions. We must focus on individually doing the next right thing. Anything else is too much for us. Peace be with you brother.
Mulsim and Jews live together without problems in many parts of europe and america..... the problem has never been individuals with different religions. The problem always come from politicians.
I am from Uzbekistan. The dedication and passion of this wise old man in preserving the history, culture, and traditions of Uzbekistan are truly inspiring. His incredible collection of ancient icons, tools, clothing, and photographs showcases the rich heritage of Uzbek people, and his deep knowledge of history is remarkable. The museum he has created is a masterpiece that beautifully captures the essence of Uzbek traditions and customs. It’s heartwarming to see how his efforts have come to life, allowing people to appreciate and learn from his work. I’m also grateful to Adam Mathson for discovering this kind and knowledgeable man and sharing his invaluable contributions with us. Bravo to this extraordinary individual for keeping history alive!
Great video, Uzbekistan 🇺🇿 is an underrated land that contributed a lot to the global civilization and knowledge with people like Ibn Sina (Avicenna) and others
Adam, thanks for taking time to come and visit Mr. Aron’s museum - he’s a true treasure! It’s a big unfortunate that we no longer have the same vibrant population and culture of Bukharian Jews here in the old city anymore. There used to be three synagogues, but two functioning at the moment and are providing service to around a couple hundred living Jews in Bukhara. The synagogues follow the same traditions by closing for Shabbat. There’s one Jewish cemetery just outside the old city and Mr. Aron is right - local Uzbeks and Tajiks look after this place keeping it clean and presentable. But make no mistake, Bukharian Jews didn’t live only in Bukhara, a vast majority lived in another great city of Samarkand too. The reason they were called Bukharian is because they were Jews living in Bukhara Emirate / Khanate which is now a part of independent Uzbekistan.
We Soviet Jews are all Khazars. No reason to say Jews from here or there. All of us are from the Khazarian Turkic nomadic khaganate that converted to Judaism 1000 years ago. Still we divide ourselves.
Funny moments like 8:23 inspired this funny t shirt that I decided to make for y’all to buy on adamjmatheson.com Please only buy one if you have the money and want to support me I still don’t make a living off UA-cam so buying a t shirt would be the best way you can help me get around and film more content for y’all to watch!

Great man! He really tries to save heritage of his ancestors, and that should be respected in todays world. I see a lot of elements of Central Asia, and as an Kazakh myself I only can thank him for his contribution to save cultures of CA
One has to understand that Islam in Central Asia is very different from the one that’s exported now from Saudi Arabia. Also, Central Asia has a huge culture of hospitality
@@Neno908this is a wrong claim made by pan islamists. Not all muslims think alike, nor do they follow their religion in the same manner. There are important differences. Muslims in Iran or Tajikistan do not have the same beliefs as muslims in more radical countries like Pakistan or saudi arabia. I am saying this as an Iranian who has been to other muslim countries and seen and spoke to muslims in other countries. Even if we ignore the sunni-shia division, Islam is practiced differently in Arab countries compared to Iran and other Persian speaking countries (except afghanistan since unfortunately it has become radical there as well) and most Turkic countries. For instance, even the most radical Iranian muslim will never claim that music is haram, or that dancing is haram, or that a woman singing is haram (note that I am talking about muslim PEOPLE and not the government). We have famous female singers and musicians that are enjoyed by muslims and non muslims alike. I was very surprised when I spoke to Arab friends and they told me they consider those things as haram. Those are just a few differences but there are many many more (e.g. female dresses, depictions of the prophets, preservation of pre islamic beliefs, cultures and traditions, etc…). As much as some muslims would like it to be so, muslims are not a monolith .
You have to understand that islam from the start of it was exported from what we call now saudi arabia to every muslim in the world the point is understanding of islam from ignorant pepole cause the issue and speak about saudi arabia with respect dont hurt our feeling with false allgations
Muhammad ibn Isma'il al-Bukhari Muhammad ibn Isma'il al-Bukhari (810--70) was born in Bukhara, present-day Uzbekistan, and died in Khartank, near Samarkand, also in present-day Uzbekistan. He is considered by Sunni Muslims to be the most authoritative collector of hadiths-reports of statements or deeds attributed to the Prophet Muhammad PBUH
Brother you're joking or you don't know anything, It's fight b/ween religion and other religions, it's fight of believers and un believers , it's fight between Truth and false it's fight Islam and non Muslims.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 Non sense It's an ideological fight We believe in the same God And as an outsider I suggest stay away OR take care your own minorities from modi
We Muslim Palestinian lived with Palestinian jews in peace...our problem is not with jews...our problem is with zionist jews...they want to take our land and wipe us of the face of earth...just like this guy...we culture...tradition...and a whole lot from our ancestors...and 🇮🇱 trying to take everything away from us.

When Ghafur Ghulam wrote the poem" I am a Jew", he expressed solidarity and sympathy for the Jewish people. In this poem, he took the suffering of the Jews and the hardships of World War II from his heart and took their pain as his own. His poem is a powerful expression of sympathy and humanism, and shows his respect for people of any nationality and religion.
Lol, Jews never had muslims' backs, they killed multiple prophets and in the time of the prophet they broke several peace treaties, the muslims of the past gave Jews a home , but the Jews always double cross as we are seeing in Palestine, everyone has there different viewpoints but as muslims (not these days, but Islamic teachings) we dont oppress anyone, but Jews are double crossers and 2 faced
Thank you for watching! I learned so much about the culture through this experience and I hope to visit Central Asia one day to learn and share more. You can help by going to visit Aron & the museum … Also, if you happen to be a big banker and/or millionaire, you can surprise him with a big baller donation!
I came here from a popped up short. Thank you for this video. Most of the ancestors on my mother side were atheist during the communist era in Russia. But they were Jews and always remembered about it. I wish all the best and long life for Aron!
I am from Uzbekistan and I heard about Bukharian jews many time but did not know anything about it. Thank you for sharing this amazing experience. By the way in my whole life I did not experience or hear any problem between Uzbek and jews or any other nations. I live in Tashkent and there also a lot of jews. Most people think they are russian but when you ask their ethnicity they say are jew proudly and everything is fine. If jews in Israel were just like in Uzbekistan, there wouldn't be any war. People like Netanyahu should not be on the top of government
have you ever heard of a Jewish pogrom in Andijan, Uzbekistan (May 1991)?.......they probably don't teach this shameful side of history in Uzbek schools
@es8945 what? I lived in Andijan? What massacre? When? We still have jewish neighbors, everyone lives shalom shalom, no problem at all, religious radicals always exist everywhere, we are not ashamed of them, bc we clean them up and arrest them, uzbekistan is secular nation, all religions are equally treated by government.
I always knew I had Russian Jewish ancestry but when I had DNA test it showed that I had some bukaran Jewish roots most likely from Uzbek I was shocked
Hey! I left the contact info for Aron and his sister in the description of the video. The museum is in Queens, NY. Feel free to send me a message on Instagram if you have any more questions ☺️
Fun fact : Bukhara Jews are Sephardic because of a missionary from Tetuan, Morocco named Rabbi Yosef Maimon who travelled there and demanded they adopt the Sephardic traditions when he found the community in utter ignorance and following the Persian religious traditions.
i'm muslim from indonesia your video is very interesting but my english very bad, do you mind adding Indonesian subtitles? I will become your subscriber and I promise to watch every one of your latest videos good luck always brother.
That lovely man has such a beautiful museum, an amazing piece of history!! I loved this video. I will have to check out any other videos on this channel 👍🏻
Gʻofur Gʻulom knew Hitler was unable to kill him, I respect to this old dear friend from Bukhara as a young man from Bukhara. There are still some jews here in Bukhara, Samarkanda some other places of Uzbekistan they are kind hospitable friendship people as much as we do. They are uzbeks too. Kudos a lot for your appreciation for Muslims and for Gʻofur Gʻulom and for all of that. Thank you for you too Adam I guess I saw Shukhrat too Also that instrument you touched was rubob I guess might be dutor too but I don't know what music is, sorry for that. But that thing he played is called doira. I hope you will read this comment someday.
Although Bukhara is in Uzbekistan, it is a territory where Tajiks live. So he probably speaks or at least understands Tajik language. Ask that please!!
Yes he does speak bukharian, there are many videos of him speaking in bukharian (judeo-tajik) on youtube, search "aron aronov bukharian) and you'll see them
Some of Aron's jokes sound tough or even rude 😂 but it's exactly that kind of jokes we have in my family. And now I understand it's absolutely a Jewish thing 😂 A sort of irony that could be shocking for everyone else. But we are fine with it. We make jokes but love each other. 😊
So what is Aron’s ethnicity? Bukhara is geographical place name, Jew is his religion ID. I just wonder if they also are Uzbek people which are believe in Judaism. Because all the things he showed you and details that he told about is the same in Uzbek Ethnic culture
ILoved The Uncle❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ He’s soo sweeet and cute ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😂😂 He says, you are ZERO😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 and then He says, You are illiterate 😂😂😂😂, then he says, why you don’t know him, you don’t know that 😂😂😂😂😂 he is so cute❤ God Bless Him ❤❤❤❤❤ and this one coming from a Muslim girl ❤❤❤❤❤ You’re so sweeeetttt Sir ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ God Blesss You and grant you Jannah❤
With every iteration of "illiterate", you were getting smaller and smaller in that wise man's eyes😂 Upd: just kidding, bro. Such an informative and yet immersive work, thx for sharing
My great great grandfather was the president of the Jewish community in Bukhara, Simkha Mosheyof was his name, he and his family immigrated to the land of Israel in about 1870 and established the Bukharian neighborhood in Jerusalem with other rich families at the time. They built the Mosheyof estate in the neighborhood, a huge estate which was later divided and used for different purposes and is no longer known as the Mosheyof Estate. I’m so sorry I won’t be able to visit the places he lived in, unless Islam leaves this country, then I will be able to visit. Everything was ruined.
I liked the video, uzbeks were always nice to everyone and still, even to their enemies but people think they are bunch of losers and third class but kindest people with the biggest heart
Bukharian Jewish Community and Its Cultural Heritage The Bukharian Jewish community, originating from Central Asia, has a rich cultural history that is intricately tied to its experiences in the Soviet Union and its relationship with Muslim neighbors. Many Bukharian Jews began emigrating to the United States in significant numbers during the late 1960s through the 1990s, escaping the oppressive Communist regime. This migration was marked by a profound sense of nostalgia for their homeland, as expressed in the sentiment that they may leave physically but never forget their roots. Cultural Practices and Traditions Central to Bukharian identity are their traditions, including unique customs surrounding family and community life. The community typically values large families, often having many children, which reflects a strong cultural emphasis on kinship and support. Traditional practices persist even in the diaspora; for instance, weddings are grand affairs featuring Kosher food, which is a vital aspect of their cultural and religious observance. Bukharian Jews maintain a strict adherence to religious customs, even in the face of Soviet restrictions, which sets them apart from other Jewish communities in Russia where such practices diminished. Community Resilience and Support The establishment of museums, such as the Bukharian Museum in Queens, serves as a testament to the resilience and dedication of the community to preserve their heritage. The museum is a labor of love, representing the efforts of individuals who work tirelessly to showcase their history. The community relies heavily on personal contributions, with members often funding trips back to Central Asia to bring artifacts that tell their story. This grassroots approach highlights the importance of communal support in maintaining cultural continuity. Interfaith Relationships The relationship between Bukharian Jews and Muslims has historically been characterized by mutual respect and shared experiences, particularly in the context of escaping Soviet oppression. The two groups found common ground in their opposition to the Communist regime, promoting a spirit of unity. This camaraderie is evident in anecdotal accounts of support and friendship that transcend religious boundaries, suggesting that strong interfaith relationships can flourish in the face of adversity. Conclusion The Bukharian Jewish experience is a compelling narrative of cultural survival and resilience, marked by strong familial ties, rich traditions, and interfaith solidarity. The community’s efforts to keep their heritage alive in their new home are a vital part of their identity, illustrating the enduring connection to their past while adapting to new environments
The museum is located @ 63-11 Wetherole Street Rego Park, NY 11374

@es8945 what? I lived in Andijan? What massacre? When? We still have jewish neighbors, everyone lives shalom shalom, no problem at all, religious radicals always exist everywhere, we are not ashamed of them, bc we clean them up and arrest them, uzbekistan is secular nation, all religions are equally treated by government.

Absolutely amazing. Pass down the traditions ❤to the next generation.

I always knew I had Russian Jewish ancestry but when I had DNA test it showed that I had some bukaran Jewish roots most likely from Uzbek I was shocked
i’d love to hear him speak in russian so much… guess he could tell so much more

Bro I'm from Uzbekistan And I need to meet him please.How can I visited this museum please reply me😊😊😊
Hey! I left the contact info for Aron and his sister in the description of the video. The museum is in Queens, NY. Feel free to send me a message on Instagram if you have any more questions ☺️
@@adamjmatheson Thanks
As a Muslim I love this man
No matter where you go, no matter where you're from, we all love to share the culture of our homeland.
He is a great man!!! He was my English teacher
Fun fact : Bukhara Jews are Sephardic because of a missionary from Tetuan, Morocco named Rabbi Yosef Maimon who travelled there and demanded they adopt the Sephardic traditions when he found the community in utter ignorance and following the Persian religious traditions.
Appreciate You Brother..... thank you for sharing this Gentlemam and his worth with the World
i'm muslim from indonesia your video is very interesting but my english very bad, do you mind adding Indonesian subtitles?

Amazing 👍 we must visit when in NY
Gʻofur Gʻulom knew Hitler was unable to kill him, I respect to this old dear friend from Bukhara as a young man from Bukhara. There are still some jews here in Bukhara, Samarkanda some other places of Uzbekistan they are kind hospitable friendship people as much as we do. They are uzbeks too. Kudos a lot for your appreciation for Muslims and for Gʻofur Gʻulom and for all of that.
Thank you for you too Adam
I guess I saw Shukhrat too
Also that instrument you touched was rubob I guess might be dutor too but I don't know what music is, sorry for that. But that thing he played is called doira. I hope you will read this comment someday.
Beautiful video good to show different cultures !!!
Although Bukhara is in Uzbekistan, it is a territory where Tajiks live. So he probably speaks or at least understands Tajik language. Ask that please!!
Yes he does speak bukharian, there are many videos of him speaking in bukharian (judeo-tajik) on youtube, search "aron aronov bukharian) and you'll see them

Some of Aron's jokes sound tough or even rude 😂 but it's exactly that kind of jokes we have in my family. And now I understand it's absolutely a Jewish thing 😂 A sort of irony that could be shocking for everyone else. But we are fine with it. We make jokes but love each other. 😊
Amazing man. Great work 👏👏.
So what is Aron’s ethnicity? Bukhara is geographical place name, Jew is his religion ID. I just wonder if they also are Uzbek people which are believe in Judaism. Because all the things he showed you and details that he told about is the same in Uzbek Ethnic culture
His ethnicity is Bukharian Jewish. They are descendants of Iranian Jews who migrated to Central Asia a few centuries ago.
For him, St. Petersburg is still Leningrad.
Very poignant.
please ask him about Nikolay II. emperor of Russia and his childhood friend who was ruler of Bukhara Alim Khan

Old Silk Road used to lead up to Bukhara and they would trade goods this old man is a legend
So interesting! Thank you for making this video!
With every iteration of "illiterate", you were getting smaller and smaller in that wise man's eyes😂
Upd: just kidding, bro. Such an informative and yet immersive work, thx for sharing

Very nice story
I don’t know how long this video is gonna last here
11:18 Why are you zero Adam? 😂😂😂😂😂
Is this where imam Bukhari is from?
Im from India 🇮🇳 ♥️ tamil nadu good information
My great great grandfather was the president of the Jewish community in Bukhara, Simkha Mosheyof was his name, he and his family immigrated to the land of Israel in about 1870 and established the Bukharian neighborhood in Jerusalem with other rich families at the time. They built the Mosheyof estate in the neighborhood, a huge estate which was later divided and used for different purposes and is no longer known as the Mosheyof Estate.
I’m so sorry I won’t be able to visit the places he lived in, unless Islam leaves this country, then I will be able to visit.
Everything was ruined.
All religions are intolerant especially Judaism.
I liked the video, uzbeks were always nice to everyone and still, even to their enemies but people think they are bunch of losers and third class but kindest people with the biggest heart
Very nice man.
Sotilganlar oʻtilmadi otilmadi otilganlar sotilmadi
Shunday, Qodiriyni sotib shoir bo'lganlar kimlarnidir ketini ham o'pib yurgan ekan

Bukharian Jewish Community and Its Cultural Heritage
The Bukharian Jewish community, originating from Central Asia, has a rich cultural history that is intricately tied to its experiences in the Soviet Union and its relationship with Muslim neighbors. Many Bukharian Jews began emigrating to the United States in significant numbers during the late 1960s through the 1990s, escaping the oppressive Communist regime. This migration was marked by a profound sense of nostalgia for their homeland, as expressed in the sentiment that they may leave physically but never forget their roots.
Cultural Practices and Traditions
Central to Bukharian identity are their traditions, including unique customs surrounding family and community life. The community typically values large families, often having many children, which reflects a strong cultural emphasis on kinship and support. Traditional practices persist even in the diaspora; for instance, weddings are grand affairs featuring Kosher food, which is a vital aspect of their cultural and religious observance. Bukharian Jews maintain a strict adherence to religious customs, even in the face of Soviet restrictions, which sets them apart from other Jewish communities in Russia where such practices diminished.
Community Resilience and Support
The establishment of museums, such as the Bukharian Museum in Queens, serves as a testament to the resilience and dedication of the community to preserve their heritage. The museum is a labor of love, representing the efforts of individuals who work tirelessly to showcase their history. The community relies heavily on personal contributions, with members often funding trips back to Central Asia to bring artifacts that tell their story. This grassroots approach highlights the importance of communal support in maintaining cultural continuity.
Interfaith Relationships
The relationship between Bukharian Jews and Muslims has historically been characterized by mutual respect and shared experiences, particularly in the context of escaping Soviet oppression. The two groups found common ground in their opposition to the Communist regime, promoting a spirit of unity. This camaraderie is evident in anecdotal accounts of support and friendship that transcend religious boundaries, suggesting that strong interfaith relationships can flourish in the face of adversity.
Conclusion
The Bukharian Jewish experience is a compelling narrative of cultural survival and resilience, marked by strong familial ties, rich traditions, and interfaith solidarity. The community’s efforts to keep their heritage alive in their new home are a vital part of their identity, illustrating the enduring connection to their past while adapting to new environments
Amazing ❤
Super
I absolutely loved this video. Very well done
Having a basement full of memorabilia and collectibles are my dream
