Abstract

The article examines the biography and social activities of Fauzia Ibragimova (Dogrul), the daughter of a prominent Tatar religious and public fi gure A. Ibragimov. The name of F. Ibragimova in Tatar historiography has remained practically unknown until now. In this light, the article for the fi rst time introduces into scientifi c circulation the results of a research on the life path and socially signifi cant activities of F. Ibrahimova. Being the daughter of the most authoritative religious leader, F. Ibragimova, however, is an example of a deep transformation of a Muslim woman. The transformation, which refl ects the ideals and aspirations of both her outstanding father and other prominent ideologists of the renewal of Islam. F.Ibragimova is a seminal representative of the Tatar emigration, the author of a number of books on management, school textbooks, the founder, publisher and editor of one of the fi rst women's magazines in Republican Turkey. In addition, F. Ibrahimova, who wrote the life story of the Prophet Muhammad for children in English and French, can be considered to be a pioneer in familiarizing the younger generation in the West with the history and culture of the Muslim world.
