The materials studied showed that foreign scientists conducted numerous studies within the framework of hagiographic works, their language, style, originality of literary and linguistic variants, linguistic and non-linguistic factors, historical- etymological basis. They also deeply studied the teachings of the Saints, the Pirs, their lives and activities. Although in Uzbek linguistics and literary studies there are some scientific works devoted to the study of hagiographic works, scientific studies devoted to the translation of hagiographic works have practically not been carried out.
