The article deals with the historical prerequisites for the penetration of Islam into the territory of Ukraine and the formation of Islamic architecture. It was revealed that the geographical position of Ukraine contributed to the emergence of Muslims in Ukrainian lands, especially in the south, on the border of two great civilizations – Christian and Muslim. At the same time, Islam in Ukraine played a significant ethno-forming role in the life of the Turkic peoples. Evidence of the permanent presence of Muslims in Kievan Rus dates back to the 11th century, when the Pecheneg Muslim cavalry was in the service of the Kievan prince. The second period is defined as a military-colonization period, which refers to the settlement in a permanent place of the peoples who professed Islam, as well as the colonial policy of the Ottoman Empire in the Northern Black Sea region and Transnistria. The Crimean peninsula became the main area for the spread of Islam in the lands that became part of independent Ukraine, where a unique Muslim civilization was born and strengthened. With the development of migration processes, the need arose for the construction of Muslim mosques on the territory of Ukraine. And if in the XVI-XVII century. mosques were built of wood, then starting from the 19th century. - stone and brick. The first mosque in Ukraine appeared in the XVI-XVII centuries. in the city of Ostrog in Volhynia in the Tatar suburb, built by Prince K. Ostrozhsky, which has not survived. From the beginning of the nineteenth century Mosques were built in the cities of Ukraine (Kyiv, Kharkiv), and the modern history of Islam and Muslims of Ukraine begins with the acquisition of Independence. So, in 1998-2000 the prayer-Muslim complex was built in Kyiv and the Arab cultural center in Odessa (2000). In addition, Muslim mosques have been built and are being designed in Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhye, Mykolaiv, Kherson regions, as well as in the cities of Kyiv, Odessa, Donetsk, etc. In order to perceive a renewed direction in the architecture of public buildings, lost in Soviet times - sacred architecture, including Muslim architecture, Muslim architecture is being formed. It is determined that the modern architecture of mosques is created on the basis of the synthesis of traditionalism and the modern creative nature of the architectural method of designing a three-dimensional image of an Islamic shrine. |
