Abstract

This article examines the axiological essence of human beauty in the Sufi philosophy of Central Asia from a historical and philosophical perspective. It explores the views of medieval Eastern thinkers, particularly Aziziddin Nasafi, Abu Hamid al-Ghazali, Ahmad Yasawi, Bahauddin Naqshband, and Alisher Navoi, on the inner and outer beauty of the human being, moral perfection, the pursuit of knowledge, and self-awareness. The article substantiates the dialectical interconnection between the divine, moral, spiritual, and aesthetic dimensions of beauty in Sufi teachings. It also elucidates the importance of disciplining the nafs, purity of heart, goodness, love, honesty, and knowledge as essential criteria of human perfection
