They Pray in -50°C _ Islam in Kazakhstan
Description;
How did Islam survive in Kazakhstan, a vast snowbound country in the heart of Central Asia? From the mountains of Almaty to the sacred city of Turkistan, this documentary explores the faith, culture and history of Kazakhstan's Muslims.
In this video:
• Almaty: the Nur-Mubarak Mosque and Islamic University
• Nomadic Kazakh culture, yurts, horses and the dombra
• Sufi heritage and Khoja Ahmed Yasawi of Turkistan
• Religion under the Soviet Union: closed mosques, banned prayer and hidden faith
• After 1991: independence, registered imams and state oversight of religion
• How young Kazakh Muslims balance modern life and tradition today
Kazakhstan is the ninth-largest country in the world, and roughly 70% of its people are Muslim. This is the story of a faith shaped by Sufi tradition, steppe life and decades of Soviet pressure.
