Violetta Pinkhasova

Violetta Pinkhasova is a full-time

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.

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.

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!

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!

By: Yulianna
YAGOUDAEVA
My name is Yulianna Yagoudaeva.
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!

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
