A fair state leader, an exceptionally capable reformer of his time, a brave commander, a great statesman, a man who conquered the heights of science, culture and enlightenment, education.
“I talked with scholars and sought out people with pure intentions and pure hearts. I asked them to receive a share of their generosity and bless them with my blessed breath. I kept the dervishes, the poor and the needy close to me, never hurt them and never rejected their requests. I did not allow depraved and slanderous gossips into my meetings and did not follow their words. When they slandered and gossiped about someone, I did not listen.”
These are the wise words that Amir Temur left for us, the younger generation, in his timeless work “Temur’s Code (Temur Tuzuklari)” — words filled with guidance and deep life lessons.
