A work of Abu Nasr al-Utbi "Tarikh-i al-Yamini" (History of Yamini) is an important source in the study of the history of Central Asia during the Ghaznavid period, in particular, Khorezm, Bukhara, Samarkand, Termez, Nasaf, Shash and the foundations of statehood in our country in the X-XI centuries. The work "Tarikh-i al-Yamini" has not been sufficiently studied and has not translated into Uzbek yet. Through this information, the researcher gets acquainted with the social processes that took place in Transoxiana, Khorasan, Kashmir in the first quarter of the X and XI centuries, the culture of the peoples, international relations in these countries. The work continues the events that took place after the "Tarikh-i al-Tabari" (History of Tabari). The work complements the information of the scholars like as Narshahi, Abu Rayhan Beruni, Saalibi about these periods. "History of Yamini" covers in detail the political events that took place in Transoxiana and Khorasan during the last Samanid period. It tells the story of the end of the X century and the first quarter of the XI century in connection with the history of Transoxiana and Khorasan. There is a certain kindness to the rulers as in all historical works of that period. The work of al-Utbi also reflects the battles for the thrones, wealth, power struggles, conflicts, bloodshed and various conflicts between the ruling powers.
