Category:Transoxanian Islamic scholars

The following list depicts the identifiable trend of medieval Islamic scholars—pioneers and influencers of Islamic theology, philosophy, and science—who originated from what was known to the West as Transoxania. Located in Central Asia and corresponding primarily to modern-day Uzbekistan, Transoxania is more commonly known to the Arabs as Mā Warāʾ an-Nahr (ما وراء النهر, – '[what is] beyond the [Jayhūn] river') and to the Persians as Farā-rūd (,  – 'beyond the [Amu] river'). This includes, but is not limited to, the cities of Bukhara, Samarkand, Termez, Nasaf (Qarshi), Khwaresm, and Margilan.
