Some currently scholarship programs available for Uzbekistan Citizens

The First one: The Code Linux

“Let me make an analogy, an analogy between programs and recipes. So, program is like a recipe; each one is a list of steps to be carried out. With rules that had to tell when you are done, when to go back, and at the end there is a certain result. If you cook, you probably exchange with recipes with your friends and you probably change the recipes, too. And if you made the changes and liked the results and your friends liked eating it. Then you might give them chenged version of the recipe. So imagine a world where you can’t change the recipe, because somebody has gone out of his way to set it up so it’s impossible to change the recipe. And imagine if you share recipe with your friends, they will call you a pirate and try to put you in prison for years” Richard Stallman

The Second one: Revolution OS

The documentary Revolution OS explores the human side of the open source and free software movements, illuminating the behind-the-scenes story of the hackers and programmers rebelling against the corporate machine.
This 90-minute film begins with Richard Stallman’s quest to create a free operating system. It then follows the movement through its two-decades-long evolution in interviews with Stallman, Linus Torvalds (creator of the open-source operating system Linux), Eric Raymond (author of The Cathedral and the Bazaar), Bruce Perens (author of the Open Source Definition), Brian Behlendorf (leader of the Apache Web server project), Michael Tiemann (founder of the first open source company) and Larry Augustin (founder of VA Linux Systems). Revolution OS also depicts the culture of the open source movement by documenting the Installfest parties where people can bring their computers to get free, expert Linux tech support; and the Refund Day protest marches, where Linux users demand reimbursement of the extra fees that get tacked onto the purchase price of new computers for pre-installed Microsoft applications.

Alhamdulillahi Robbil ‘alamiyn wassalamu wassalatu ala Rasulallah

Assalamu alaykum

Ramadhan has started in Uzbekistan today, October 4th, alhamdulillah, so has this website, uzbmaster.com ;) I am very grateful to two of my friends without whose help this site wouldn’t have started functioning. May Allah reward them with all the best of this world and hereafter.

Hadith:
Narrated ‘Umar bin Al-Khattab: I heard Allah’s Apostle saying, “The reward of deeds depends upon the intentions and every person will get the reward according to what he has intended. So whoever emigrated for worldly benefits or for a woman to marry, his emigration was for what he emigrated for.” Sahih Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 1, Number 1

Uzbek translation of the above hadith with some extra details:
Xofiz Abdulbaqo Xolid ibn Yusuf Maqdusiy Abul Yaman Kindiydan, bu zot Muhammad ibn Abdulboqiy al-Ansoriydan, bu zot Abu Muhammad Hasan ibn Ali al-Javhariydan, bu zot Abul Husayn Muhammad ibn Muzaffar al-Hofizdan, bu zot Abu Bakr Muhammad ibn Muhammad ibn Sulaymon al-Vositiydan, bu zot Abu Nu’aym Ubayd ibn Hishom al-Xalabiydan, bu zot Ibn Muborakdan, bu zot Yahyo ibn Saiddan, bu zot Muhammad ibn Ibrohim at-Taymiydan, bu zot Alqama ibn Vaqqos al-Laysiydan, bu zot Umar ibn Xattobdan rivoyat qiladilar.

Rasululloh sollallohu alayhi vasallam aytdilar: “Albatta, amallar niyat bilandir. Har bir kishiga niyat qilgani boladi. Kimning hijrati Alloh va rasuli uchun bo‘lsa, bas, Alloh va rasuli uchun hijrat qilibdi. Kimning hijrati dunyoga yetishish yoki xotinga uylanish uchun bo‘lsa, uning hijrati o‘sha narsaga bo‘libdi“.
Bu hadisning sahihligiga va darajasi ulug‘ligiga ittifoq qilingan, Bu hadisi sharif Islom asoslaridan birini ifoda etgandir.
