'''Māwarāʾ al-Nahr''' (Arabic: {{ia|ماوَراء النَهْر}}) or '''Transoxiana''' was the name of a vast land in the east north of the plateau of [[Iran]], which is now also called Central Asia. This region became known as '''Mawara' al-Nahr''', after it was conquered by [[Muslim]]s. The [[religion]] of most of its people before [[Islam]] was [[Zoroastrianism]]. Islam quickly spread in this land and this region could become the pole of Islamic culture and civilization in a short time. Some of its important cities were [[Merv]], [[Balkh]], [[Bukhara]], [[Samarqand]], etc.
