Can you say what qualities Nabat khanym and
Mohandas K.Gandhi
possessed?
Nabat khanym Ashurbeyova was one of the richest
women in Azerbaijan in the 19th century. Oil fields and
apartment houses were the source of great wealth that
she possessed.
After she married Haji Musa Rza Rzayev, a wealthy merchant, Nabat khanym became known as a philanthropist. She attended all meetings of Baku Charity Society. Nabat khanym joined H.Z.Taghiyev`s initiative and made huge contributions to financing construction of Shollar water pipeline, which is one of the largest water pipeline systems that supplies Baku with drinking water. Mrs Ashurbeyova also lent a large amount of money to the construction of the “Seyyid Hospital” in the district of Sabunchu in Baku. Patients were treated in this hospital at her expense for a long time. Her greatest charity was the construction of the Teze Pir mosque.
