student at Queens College and a part of TIME 2000, one of the most presti- gious math education programs na- tionwide. She is pursuing a major in mathematics and a double minor in secondary education and political sci- ence. With a full four-year scholarship from TIME 2000, Violetta continues to be on the Deans List, which requires a GPA of 3.5 or higher. In addition, she is a recipi- ent of the Peter Vallone Scholarship. She expects to graduate with honors in the spring of 2012 and will then continue her education at Queens College Graduate School in Mathematics and Secondary Education. Her goal is to obtain a Juris Doctorate and incorporate it into her teaching career. Violetta was born in 1990 in Chimkent, Kazakhstan to the proud par- ents of Roman Pinkhasov and Olga Yur- gayeva. In September of 1991, at just 13 months of age, she and her family immi- grated to America, the land of opportu- nity and future prosperity. Here her fam- ily, like many Bukharian families, overcame many obstacles and finally reached their dreams, encouraging Violetta and her brother, Robert, to do the same. She is very thankful for her parents support, guidance and love. Violetta is pursuing a career in teaching math for grades seven through twelve. She realized that math was her calling when she entered Fran- cis Lewis High School. There she took two math courses every year just to reach her ultimate goal in taking the highest math course available, which was Advanced Placement Calculus. She did not understand why she wanted to do this, but she had the passion to push her- self and achieve that goal. In June 2008, Violetta graduated with honors, ranking at the top five percent of her graduating class. She continues to work at a tutoring center and enjoys helping her fellow peers whenever they have questions. It brings her great pleas- ure to help a person and have them finally understand what they have been struggling with. Math is not Vio- lettas only passion. Violetta is an editor of the TIME 2000 newsletter, and has been published in the Bukharian Times on several occasions. . Not only has she decided to pursue this profession because it gives her great joy, but she has a line of family members that are instructors. This includes math- ematics and physics professors, and Russian Literature, English, music and elementary school teachers. Her mother among them was an elementary school teacher. As a dedicated math teacher Vi- oletta hopes to give back to the commu- nity, by helping the children of tomorrows future. What do you wish for the Bukharian Jewish community? To many, being Bukharian is just a label, but I consider it as a part of my identity that carries my morals and be- liefs in life. The perseverance of the Bukharian Community is well demon- strated in our history. We spent over two thousand years away from our promised land Eretz Israel and were still able to maintain our Jewish religion and cus- toms. I come from a traditional family and I will take everything I learned from my loved ones to help me in the future. I wish for the Bukharian Jewish commu- nity to grow and flourish. This may be achieved through higher education, as education is a strong foundation of ones life. With this, many opportunities be- come available, allowing the Bukharian Jewish community to prosper.

I V STUDENTS OF THE MONTH Shoshana Aronov Shoshana Aronov is a sophomore at Queens College. She is majoring in Psychology and minoring in a business program called BALA. Shoshana is an honorable student; she is on the Deans list. Her GPA is 3.9, while the top average is 4.0. Shoshana chose to major in Psy- chology because she has always found this subject interesting and is excited to continue to learn more about it. After graduating from the undergraduate pro- gram at Queens College, she hopes to go on to the counseling program at the graduate level. She has a great passion to help people and believe that becom- ing a guidance counselor will serve this purpose. Shoshana Aronov was born in Navoi, Uzbekistan in 1990. At age 3, her family moved to Israel. In 2002, the fam- ily decided to immigrate to the United States, a country full of opportunities. What do you wish for the Bukharian Jewish community? I am very proud to be a Bukharian Jew and a part of the Bukharian com- munity in the United States. No matter all hardships the Bukharian people had faced, they are still able to hold on to their traditions and all that is important to them. The Bukharian community has been able to grow and become very successful in becoming a prominent part of America, which makes it a privi- lege to be called a Bukharian Jew. I believe that the Bukharian com- munity can continue to achieve great accomplishments, such as being able to make a course of the history and cul- ture of Bukharian Jews for the first time in Queens College. I wish for the Bukharian Jewish community that a larger part of the younger generation will become more involved for the serv- ice of the community and become as proud as I am to be engaged in the Bukharian culture. fax (718) 261-1564 The Bukharian Times 30 - 5 2010 442 27 By: Rabbi Refael & Mrs. Adina Riba- coff, Chattan & Kallah Teachers, Mar- riage Educators, Family & Life Coaches, Founders of Table for Two Couple events In the merit of the Righteous women we were redeemed from Mitzrayim (Egypt), and in the merit of the Righteous women will be merit to be redeemed again. Who is this Righteous woman? What is her make-up? Throughout the Torah women have been given many different names and jobs. She is the Ezer KeNegdo The Helpmate of her Husband. She is his Eishet Chayil The Woman of Valor. She is strong yet gentle & loving. She is tough yet caring & beautiful. She is the mother of their children (Em HaBa- nim Semaicha) guiding and directing her family in the ways of Torah Obser- vance and commitment to Mitzvot. We are told: Not to forsake the Torah of our Mother. The mother is the one who FIRST imbues that love & passion for Torah & Mitzvot in her children! Being a mother is a great responsibi- lity. Its not just preparing meals, doing laundry, or putting band aids on little boo- boos. Theres more to it than that. It also entails being there to clean up the mess! What does that mean? In Parshat Chu- kat we are told about the Mitzvah of the Red Cow. Without getting into the nuan- ces and paradoxes, we are told that, symbolically, the Red Cow comes to atone for the sin of the Golden Calf. This is to say: Let the mother come and clean up the mess left behind by her child. When a child does something wrong the first person looked upon to help fix or correct the situation is the childs mother! But there is more. The Midrash tells us that the women in the Generation of the Desert were Fix-it Women. They came to seal the breaches that were made by the men. What does that mean? For example: The Torah mentions that when Moshe delayed in coming down from Har (Mount) Sinai, the people gathe- red around Aharon to make for them a god. Aharon, stalling for time (as Moshe was to arrive the next day), requested that the men gather the gold of the women. But the verses go on to state that the men removed their OWN gold and brought it to Aharon and from there the Golden Calf was formed. What happened to the wo- mens gold? They NEVER gave it! The woman did not want to have anything to do with the Golden Calf. If anything, they warned their husbands against it. Another example involves the Spies who returned from their 40 day tour of Eretz Yisrael (Israel). They slandered the land. The people were afraid to Go up to the land. But it was the men who were punished to die in the years of wan- dering in the desert. As the Torah states that all the men perished except for Yehoshua Bin Nun and Calev Ben Yefu- neh. On the contrary, the women made every effort to acquire land in Eretz Yisrael. The daughters of Tzelofchad re- quested the right to inherit their fathers portion in Eretz Yisrael. The womens love for the land was great. They did not believe the slanderous tales of the spies. They did not believe the men that they wont be able to conquer the land. Thats why the portion in the Torah about the daughters of Tzelofchad appears con- nected to the death of the generation of the desert. Their attitude was different. This is in order to show us that the women were Righteous and they fixed and sealed the openings and breaches that the men caused by their behavior. There is an interesting story involving the Brisker Rav. There was the custom in the Shule of Brisk that there was a choir by the Chazan (Cantor) during the High Holidays. One year, some people wanted to introduce a new concept: the choir should be situated in a balcony to the side. The Brisker Rav felt that this was not proper and that it imitated the ways of others. When the Brisker Rav came to Shule and saw the choir in the balcony, he ordered them to come down. They listened and came down. When the Gabaim of the Shule saw that their new concept was not being followed they ordered the choir to go back up to the balcony and they did. Seeing what just happened, the Brisker Rav ran up- stairs and ordered them down again. As soon as the choir came back down, the Gabaim ordered them back up again. This continued back and forth several times. Finally, the Brisker Rav turned to the women in the Ezrat Nashim (Womens Section) and pleaded with them: Holy Jewish Women, please order your husbands to go downstairs where they belong! The women quickly started to yell at their husbands to listen to the Rav and NOT to listen to the Ga- baim. The men harkened to their wives and stayed downstairs next to the Cha- zan. We see from this story that the men were more scared of their wives than of the Brisker Rav. They listened right away to their wives. When it came down to it to who did the Brisker Rav turn to end this break of impropriety? He turned to the Righteous Women. They contain within themselves that sense of whats right ands whats wrong. Hashem crea- ted women with extra Bina Understan- ding. Thats the Helpmate of her husband. By sometimes going AGA- INST her husband she is helping him ac- hieve perfection. By fulfilling the will of her husband which is to want to do the right things in Torah & Mitzvot she ful- fills her responsibility to guide her hus- band well & properly. My we merit the Ultimate Geula (Re- demption) speedily in our days! For thoughts & comments, please contact: rabbi_ribacoff@yahoo.com or adinaribacoff@gmail.com MRS. FIX IT J U D A I S M Dear Rabbi, I come from a family that isn't very observant. I would like to branch away from our secular ways and become more religious. First on my agenda is to eat kosher food. However, I realize this will be a difficult task given the fact that I don't really want to bring any attention to myself in my family and I'm not sure how to go about this difficult task, but I'm de- termined. Furthermore, I eventually plan to learn Hebrew and attend shul regu- larly. I realize these things sound mun- dane to many observant Jews but in my family, they're pretty outlandish. I want to change this and I intend to start with my- self. So I would greatly appreciate any and all the advice you can give me. Thank you for your question. The first piece of advice would be to attend synagogue and find an appro- priate Rabbi and/or Rebbetzin to guide you along your path to spirituality. The road is uphill so you need some help in case you need some extra support to help you on your way. Eating Kosher is a great start just check to make sure that ANYTHING and EVERYTHING you eat has a reputable Kosher sign on it. (And this is without getting into Chalav Yisrael, Pat Yisrael, Bishul Akum, and the different kinds of Shechita of meat and poultry). See the following site for reliable Kos- her symbols: http://www.kosherquest.org/html/Re- liable_Kosher_Symbols.htm Now, as far as the dishes, pots and silverware in the house are concerned there is a problem. First they probably need to be dipped in the Mikvah; and se- cond they might not even be Kosher and the whole kitchen needs to be made Kosher (problems with meat & milk or non-kosher items). Invest in your own pots, dishes and silverware or use a lot of plastic. It might sound overwhelming at first but dont worry once you learn, under- stand and appreciate what its all about life will be much more fulfilling. Also, there are many individuals in your situation where spending a quiet and beautiful Shabbat at home is inter- rupted with the rest of the family watc- hing tv, or the family going out to a non-kosher restaurant and you cant, etc. The test might seem hard but remem- ber: that Hashem only gives an individual a test that they are able to stand by. If they fail its only their own fault. The strength to su- cceed is implanted within you just stay strong and firm in your beliefs. Dont be swayed by family or friends ridiculing you this is just part of the test to see just how sincere you are in your commitment to find the truth. Hang in there when they see its not working they will leave you alone. Not only that, people will respect you more if you truly stand for what you believe in - and are not just whishy-washy about Religion. A person is not obligated to jump into the deep end and start fulfilling everything right away there should be a natural pro- gression of learning and doing. You are held more responsible if you know and dont do and when it comes to Biblical commandments, ignorance is no excuse. I would recommend that you visit any sites that deal with Jewish Orthodoxy: http://www.njop.org/ http://www.aish.com/ They have wonderful classes, lectu- res and articles on a wide range of sub- jects to help you. Also, check out any Jewish bookstore for a wide range of books on any sub- ject. There are audio and video tapes on a wide variety of subjects as well. If you have any further question please feel free to ask! Good luck!

I was born on May 30, 1990 to Albert Yagoudaev and Alla Biniaminova. My Hebrew name is Yushuoh bat Hanna. This is my family tree. My last name Yagoudaeva pro- nounced Yah-Good-Ah-Yeva, comes from the Hebraic origins of Yehuda. When I began my search of my earliest family roots my search led me into Kokand, Uzbekistan. My grandmother, Froza Mosheyeva-Biniaminova, was born there and her great-grandfather, Yuhanan Rayhoni Bulbul Yagoudaev lived there as far back into history as my family knows. I shall begin my family tree from him. It is estimated that Rayhon was born in 1843 and died in 1936. He was a story teller and a very well known personality in his hometown. He was married to Hanna Yagoudaev, it is unfortunate but nobody seems to know of her maiden name and there seems to be no record of it, if I have time in the future, I will gather more research on her. But for the purposes of this time line her last name is Yagoudaeva and her birth and death is unknown. What is known about this couple is that they had 10 children, 3 of whom died very young. In no specific order because the dates are debatable these are their children: Bahmal (1894-1984); Bulor (1887-1959); Chini (1888-1965); Ilusha (1886- 1963); Sarah (1893-1865); Mazol (1904-1994); Yosef (1909-1989). The names of the three other siblings are Manashe, Efraim, and the last one is unknown. The interesting irony and perhaps the traditions of the past are eluded in the following. Bulor and Sarah were sisters. Each married very young. Bulor married when she was 11 years old and her hus- band, Rafael (1860-1936) was 30. They had 10 chil- dren. Sarah was 13 when she wed her husband, Abraham Davidov (1887- 1957). These are Bulor and Rafaels children. Man- ashe [no record because he died young]; Efraim [1909-1992]; Mamon [1905-1945]; Nison [1907-1997]; Zilpo [1913-1975]; Mikhail [1923-1997]; Lyuba [1923-Still Alive] {twins}; Isaac [1926-1990]. Two children died in child- birth. Sarah and Abraham had 5 children, and 4 children whom they lost at birth. Yelizaveta [1917-1979]; Yasha (Meyer) [1919-1965]; Mordechai [1923-2009]; Nadia [1926-1990]; Zoya [1936-Still Alive]. Here is where my personal story con- tinues, Bulors son Mamon Rafaelovich Musheyev [1905-1945] married his cousin, Sarahs daughter Yelizaveta Abramova Davydova [1917-1979], and Sarahs son Yasha (Meyer) Yagoudaev [1919-1965] [he took his grandmothers last name, otherwise he wouldve been Davydov] married my paternal grand- mother Zinaida Haimova Yagoudaeva [1927-2007]. My family is inter-related. Yelizaveta and Mamon had 4 chil- dren. Tamara [1934-1997]; Yaffa [1936-- -]; Maya [1938-1939]; and Froza [1940---]. Froza is my grandmother. Mamon was a soldier in the front fighting for USSR in WWII. He sent a telegram in 1945 claiming that the war was over and that he was preparing his papers to re- turn home to his wife and children. Sev- eral months after that telegram, Yelizaveta received notice that Mamon was brutally murdered in his cabin by the neo-nazis. He would never return home. He was buried in the German cemetery at Grasfeld. Forty years after the war, Froza traveled to Grasfeld, Germany and found his grave. It was the first one in the lot. Froza is a hero for traveling on her own into a foreign country where Jews were not exactly welcomed. But she did it because she had sworn to her passing mother that she would one day find her father. She had never met her father because she was born only when he had already left for the war. There are pictures doc- umenting her epic visit. One day in the near future I plan to retrace her footsteps and find this cemetery as well. Froza married Boris Biniaminov [1937---]. Boris is the son of Daniel Matatovich Benyaminov [Hasid] [1914-2005] and Tamara Yusupov [1915-2008]. Daniel and Tamara had four children. Boris (Bahor) [1937--]; Yahudo (Yura) [1938--]; Yakov [1940---]; and Yelizaveta [1950--]. My great-grandfather and I had a wonderful relationship. I was the only great-grandchild out of approx- imately 30 great-grandchildren whom was allowed to call him Bobo. He and my great-grand- mother lived an incredible life to- gether. When he came back from the war, he didnt have any money, any place to call home, but he had a wife and 3 boys to support. Imme- diately he found work and a kind woman by the name of Yushuoh Haimov, gave the family a house to live in. Several decades later these two families would become even more re- lated because Daniels granddaughter Alla (my mother) would marry Yushuohs grandson (Albert (Garik) Yagoudaev) [my father]. For inquiry purposes, Yahudo mar- ried Nellya Pakanayeva and they had 4 children, one of whom is the renowned musician Yuhan [1962]. My grandparents, Boris and Froza had two children, Larisa [1965---] and Alla [1969---]. Alla is my mother. My mother married my father Albert (Garik) Yagoudaev [1964--]. My father is the son of Yasha (Meyer) Yagoudaev and Zinaida Haimov. My father has one sister, Antonina Yagoudaeva-Zavlunova [1960- -]. My paternal grandmother passed away a few years ago and I was not able to learn much about her family. What I do know is that her parents were Mikhail Haimov [1887- 1953] and Yushuoh Kalendaeva Haimov [1900-1990]. She had two siblings Yosef Haimov [1919- 1942] and Tamara Haimov [1921-1984]. These are the basics of who my rela- tives are, where I come from in the literal sense. The accompanying map adds a few more people, whom are close rela- tives. This project was an incredible expe- rience for me because even though I knew the majority of my relatives there were many minor details that I was not familiar with and having conversations with relatives helped me to understand who I am and where I come from. I heard this quote a few days ago and it attrib- utes to my family, those who survive the past, own the future. The future is mine, and I have very big plans! O R I G I N S MY FAMI LY TREE The recipe was recorded from Miriam Abramoff by Elaine Hallgarten. Yuhanan Rayhoni Bulbul Yagoudaev fax (718) 261-1564 The Bukharian Times 30 - 5 2010 442 29 Shoista (Shoshana) Mullodzhanova (September 3, 1925 June 25, 2010), was a renowned Bukharian Jewish singer. She won many awards and titles in her career including the prestigious "People's Artist of the Republic of Tajikistan". She had a seven decade career in music, from 1941 until her death in 2010. To this day, she is re- garded as one of the greatest singers of the USSR and of Tajikistan and her recordings are still preserved in the archives of Tajikistan. Mullodzhanova was one of the founders of contempo- rary Tajik music and was often re- ferred to as the "Queen of Shashmaqom Music" and as the "Daughter of Tajikistan. Her nephew, Yudik Mullodzhanov, is a singer, and her niece, Rosa Mul- lodzhanova, is known as an "Honored Artist of Tajikistan". Early life She was born in Dushanbe, Tajikistan to a religious Bukharian Jewish family. Her mother, Sivyo Davydova, was from Samarkand and her father, Ruben Mul- lodzhanov, originally came from Bukhara. Her family traces its ancestry to an aristo- cratic Levite tribe that had been performing and entertaining since the time of the First and Second Temple in Jerusalem. Her family was full of entertainers (ac- tors, singers, and musicians), so singing was in her blood. In 1924, her parents and older siblings (Ribi, Levi, Isakhar, Roshel, Zulai) moved from Uzbekistan to Tajikistan, where Shoista was born a year later. Her mother was also a singer and her whole family was into music and acting. She grad- uated from the Stalinabad Women's Peda- gogical School in 1943 and studied at the Moscow Conservatory from 1947 to 1953. Career Mullodzhanova had her debut at age 8 when she sang on Dushanbe radio. During the beginning of her career, in the early 1940s, she was part of the Rubab Player Ensemble in Tajikistan's Ensemble. With this ensemble, in 1945, she sang in Iran for the royal family of Iran and the Shah, the Pahlavis including Reza Shah the Great, and for the Iranian audience in Per- sian language. She was also named "Mer- ited Artist of Tajikistan" at the age of 20. By the mid-1940s, Mullodzhanova broke away from the ensemble and began to sing solo. After graduating cum laude from Moscow Conservatory in 1953, she performed at the Aini Theater for Opera and Ballet. The roles that she developed there include Mahin in Tohir va Zuhro by A. Lenskii; Gulizor in Shurishi Vose (The Vose Uprising) by S. Balasan- ian; Marfa in Arusi Shoh (The Bride of the King) by Rimsky-Korsakov, and others. Through the years, she sang Shash- maqom music throughout Central Asia, Middle East, and the Soviet Union, and made a wonderful living. She was named the "People's Artist of Tajikistan", in 1957. From the mid-1950s to the mid-1970s, she was a soloist vocalist for the Tajik State Philharmonic. Mul- lodzhanova sang music of all other Soviet republics and of Eastern people. In 1975, she was named sen- ior instructor at the Tajik- istan State Institute of Arts. In addition to being a People's Artist, she re- ceived the Order of Lenin, the Red Banner of Labor, two Order of the Badge of Honor, four medals, and the Honorary Order of the Pre- sidium of the Supreme So- viet of Tajikistan and other republics. In the 1980s, Mullodzhanova earned a reputation for being the Queen of Tajik Music. She sang in Central Asia and all over the former Soviet Union for 50 years. Personal life and later career Mullodzhanova was married to Efrem Haritonovich Benyaev from 1946 until his death in 1999. They had three children: Anna (lives in Forest Hills, NY), Negmat (doctor of science, based in Moscow), and Sofia (doctor based in Austria). In 1991, Shoista and her family moved from Central Asia to the United States be- cause of the collapse of the Soviet Union and the start of the civil war and rise of Islamic fundamentalism in Tajikistan. The family settled in Forest Hills, New York. After immigrating to New York, Mul- lodzhanova joined the Bukharan Ensem- ble, founded by Fatima Kuinova, "Merited Artist of Tajikistan". After her husband, Efrem Haritonovich Benyaev, died, she dedicated an album in his memory. In September 2005, in Forest Hills High School, Mullodzhanova came out to sing for a crowd of audience who all came to celebrate her 80th birthday. Aged 80 she was able to touch people with her singing and remind them that she is singing for each and every one of them, as she al- ways said "I am singing for you!" The Bukharian Jewish Congress of the USA and Canada published a biog- raphy about Shoista Mullodzhanova, en- titled "Born to Sing" by musicologist Rafael Nektalov, a documentary was also filmed about the legendary singer. In March 2008, Mullodzhanova per- formed at the Golden Ilyas Awards Cer- emony singing "Ey Dukhtari Nozanini Qadras" (Persian for "Hey, Beautiful Girl, All Grown Up) and received an award. The concert was held in honor of renowned Bukharian Jewish poet, musi- cian, and playwright, Ilyas Malayev. On June 26, 2010, Mullodzhanova died after suffering a heart attack in For- est Hills, New York, three months before her 85th birthday. Soon after, the people of Tajikistan heard this and the following day the President Emomali Rahmon sent a message to the United States express- ing his condolence to the relatives of this legendary singer.
