The Soviet Government sought to regulate the situation of Muslim women in Central Asia through gender reform. The Soviets, which established power over Central Asia in 1920, adopted decisions that again took into account the religious, social and legal status of women. To this end, legal norms regulating gender equality have been introduced. But the gender policy of the Soviet Union did not take into account the religious and ritual characteristics of the local population. In this regard, the gender reform of the Bolsheviks could not fully penetrate the consciousness of local women.
In the 1920s, movements against Soviet socio-economic reforms manifested themselves spontaneously in all parts of Central Asia. Movements against the Bolshevik government's policy of gender equality were carried out in a religious and social context. In Soviet historiography and literature, an unambiguous assessment of the gender policy of the Bolsheviks of the 1920s and 1930s was given.
In addition, the subsequent gender positions of the soviets in the region have not received their own theoretical and methodological assessment. In textbooks under the USSR, communism was characterized as a society restoring women's freedom. Modern research seeks to give a truthful opinion about the shortcomings of the Soviet gender concept. At the same time, in today's education system, the task of considering this problem with new perspectives comes to the fore. This research paper provides a historical assessment of the situation of Muslim women in Central Asia during the Soviet era and offers judgments that give rise to theoretical views. An analysis of the content and features of the approaches of this topic in the educational system was also carried out.
