Avanti is a typical figure in Uygur legends. "Avanti" means a teacher and a knowledgeable person, and is a respectful name, not a name. His name is Nasretdin, and in order to show respect for him, everyone also calls him Hoga? Nasretdin? Avanti (Hoga is also a title, meaning "teacher").
In people's minds, Avanti is the embodiment of wisdom and joy. As long as his name is mentioned, people who are sad will smile. He laughed at the stupidity of the world, at the speculative businessmen, at the vicious society where the judges who took bribes and the hypocritical mullahs used their arrogance to make a fortune ... In a word, he laughed at those hypocrites who sucked the blood of the poor under the cover of religious laws created by themselves for deception.
Avanti's image: wearing a national flowered hat and riding a donkey with his back to his front and back, has long been deeply rooted in people's hearts. Avanti's laughter is also distinctive: gentle and penetrating.
Avanti is one of the most outstanding folk creations, and Avanti has been listed in the "World Folk Art Image".

the story about avanti
avanti is not a fiction, but a real historical figure. His real name is Hoga Nasreldin; Some people call him Nasreldin Avanti or Mullah Nasreldin. "Avanti" is not a person's name, just like "Hoga" and "Mullah", it is a respectful name for people. "Avanti" means "Sir" and "Teacher", while "Khoja" and "Mullah" are the honorifics of Islamic religious figures.
Avanti's hometown is not Xinjiang, but Turkey in the 13th century. He was born in the village of Holto in southwestern Turkey in 65, that is, in 128 or 129. Like his father, he has been a worshipper in a mosque hosting public worship, and he is also a theologian who is proficient in Islam. A portrait of him is still preserved in the museum in Istanbul, Turkey. He has a long beard, wears a big head wrap, and rides on a thin donkey. It is said that he rides a donkey in a special way, with his back facing forward and his face facing back. He explained to his students that if I ride on the donkey face forward, you will fall behind me; If you walk in front of me, I can only see your backs, so I chose the best way to ride a donkey, that is, with my back forward and my face back, which solved all the problems and made it easier to look at the people talking, which made me more polite.
Avanti lived to the age of seventy-six, and finally died in Ak Sehir in southern Turkey. His grave still exists today. It is said that his grave was built according to his last joke, that is, his last words. His grave was not buried in the soil, but built on four pillars. There is no wall around the pillar, but there are two big wooden locks on the gate in front of the cemetery. Anyone who comes here will not laugh.
Avanti told countless stories all his life. He used clever, witty and humorous language to laugh at people's ignorance, satirize the absurdity and cruelty of rulers, and praise the diligence and wisdom of working people. Therefore, for hundreds of years, Avanti's jokes and stories have been circulated among the people and won the love of people of all ethnic groups.
Like all wise men, he is loved by the people. China's [[Avanti]] filmed in 1979 has been talked about by people up to now. He is also clever with Moses, the god of law in the [[Bible]] story, and pursues justice.
Here, we can also see everyone's determination to look forward to the light and punish evil forces, just like Homer's [[Iliad].
