This article analyzes the traditional and modern clothing and jewelry of the Arab population living in Uzbekistan, particularly the Arabs residing in Jeynov village of Mirishkor district, Kashkadarya region. Arab national clothing is an important part of their material culture and reflects the national identity, customs, and aesthetic values of the people. The research results show that some elements of traditional Arab clothing and jewelry have partially been preserved to the present day, although they are undergoing changes under the influence of modern cultural processes. In particular, traditional ornaments such as “gizzi,” “natti,” “bugnak,” and “silsila” remain significant ethnocultural markers of Arab women. The survey results indicate different levels of preservation of national clothing and jewelry among the Arab population: some respondents note that they are fully or partially preserved. In addition, cultural interaction with other local ethnic groups has influenced certain elements of clothing and jewelry. The study demonstrates that traditional Arab clothing and ornaments continue to be transmitted from generation to generation as an important cultural heritage while simultaneously adapting to contemporary social and cultural transformations.

This article provides a philosophical analysis of the epistemological, ontological, and axiological differences between Islamic philosophy and postmodernism. Drawing on the ideas of prominent postmodern thinkers such as Jean-François Lyotard, Michel Foucault, and Jacques Derrida, the study examines the relativization of truth, skepticism toward metanarratives, the deconstruction of the subject, and the socially constructed nature of knowledge. In contrast, the paper demonstrates that within the classical tradition of Islamic philosophy—represented by thinkers such as Abu Nasr al-Farabi, Ibn Sina (Avicenna), and Abu Hamid al-Ghazali—truth is understood as a reality grounded in an ontological foundation, originating from a transcendent source and serving as a basis for moral and normative order. The study argues that the metaphysical realism of Islamic philosophy can offer a systematic critical response to postmodern relativism. At the same time, the critical methodology of postmodernism may also function as an important intellectual tool that alerts religious thought to the potential dangers of dogmatism. The article concludes that the relationship between Islamic philosophy and postmodernism should not be interpreted merely as an antagonistic opposition, but rather as a complex interaction between different philosophical paradigms that, in certain respects, may complement each other.
