Sharaf Rashidov was the same age as the October Revolution. The Bolsheviks, who came to 
power in Russia in 1917, conducted the largest experiment in terms of scale in the history of humanity 
and the most controversial in its results. As a result of transformations in a vast territory on which lived 
many people and nations was built a society which was based on socio-economic relations [1: 23].
This 
totalitarian system, based on the ruthless exploitation of human resources, had created a powerful 
economy and a strong army. 
Sh. Rashidov was born in a family of farmers. His father “was up to the seventh generation of 
farmer, who had devoted his whole life to hard work. The old aged people from his native village 
“Sovungarlik” were very well aware of it” [2: 22-25]. Sharaf’s parents, both father and mother were 
simple villagers-farmers, but both were literate. His mother Quysinoy graduated a Muslim parish school 
for girls which were universally open in imperial times after the conquest of Turkestan. Sharaf’s family 
was very modest and like many other families around them, lived with difficulty making ends meet. At 
the same time, in the rural suburb of the small county town of Jizzakh, this family was well known and 
respected. Sharaf’s father, Rashid Khalilov, was a simple farmer. He was known as a kind and 
sympathetic person and was called the “right” person. The villagers considered him a great expert of 
many folk songs and “makoms”. He was a man who could be seen: tall, slender, always wearing 
“chapan” (national garment) and boots [3: 55]. 
In the 20s of the XX century, stormy events took place to form Soviet society. Of course, Sharaf 
Rashidov during these years was still too young to be fully aware of what was happening, but turbulent 
and rapidly changing events could not in any way affect the formation of his consciousness and 
personality as a whole. The main character traits were known to be determined in the early years of life. 
The consciousness and character of the young Sharaf were formed primarily against the background of 
significant and visible changes that took place in the surrounding reality. His worldview, the weight of 
the spirit, which later appeared in his work and work, ripened in turbulent and troubled times, and at the 
same time his spirit matured and his talent grew, the old world collapsed and a new world arose, to 
which he devoted his life to serving [3: 56]. 
Therefore, everything new was taking place at that time in the country's public life determined the 
life prospects of Sh. Rashidov. Born into a poor farmer family, during the time of tsarist Russia he 
would have no opportunity to obtain modern education and achieve the successes that were represented
