This article examines the early lives and reformist activities of Mazhariddin, Mukammiliddin, and Muhammir Burhonov, members of a prominent scholarly family in the Emirate of Bukhara. The Burhonov case reveals Jadidism as a practical program of social transformation in which pedagogy, philanthropy, publishing, mobility, and political reform were closely interconnected.
