In 1793, a Sefardi
Jew from Tetuan, Morocco, named Yosef Maman traveled to Bukhara and
found the local Jews in very poor condition, and he decided to
settle there. He became a spiritual leader and changed the Persian
religious tradition to Sephardic Jewish tradition. In the middle of
the 19th century, Bukharan Jews began to move to the historic Land
of Israel. Land on which they had settled in Jerusalem was called
the Bukharan quarter (Sh'hunat Buhori); it still exists today.
In 1865, Russian troops took over Tashkent, and there was a large
influx of Jews to the newly created Turkestan Region. From 1876 to
1916, dozens of Bukharan Jews held prestigious jobs, and some Jews
prospered. Jews were free to practice Judaism.
With the establishment of Soviet rule on the territory in 1917,
Jewish life seriously deteriorated. Throughout 1920s and 1930s,
thousands of Jews, fleeing religious oppression, confiscation of
property, arrests, and repressions, escaped (often by foot) to
Palestine. World War II and the Holocaust brought over a million
Jewish refugees from the European regions of the Soviet Union and
Eastern Europe through Uzbekistan. |
