Musa Jalil

"The Soviet people fought against the hated enemy not only in their homeland, but also actively participated in the anti-fascist resistance movement. The immortal feat was performed by the Hero of the Soviet Union, the communist poet Musa Jalil, a native of the village of Mustafino in the Sharlyk district. During the battle, he was seriously wounded and captured. A firm belief in the correctness of Lenin's ideas, in the Victory of the Soviet people over the brown plague, helped him to continue the fight against fascism itself, in prisons. He organized an underground group, but was betrayed by a traitor and sentenced to death. Inhuman torture does not destroy M.'s fortitude and courage. Jalil. The Communist poet remained a faithful son of returning to his homeland until his last breath" (Tikhomirov A. E., Chkalovskaya (Orenburg) region during the Great Patriotic War, "Ridero", Yekaterinburg, 2022, p. 10).

Musa Zalilov (Jalil) was born on February 2 (15), 1906 in the village of Mustafino in the Sharlyk district of the Orenburg region (at that time the Orenburg province), where in 1919 he founded a children's organization that joined the struggle for Soviet power. He was the sixth and youngest child in the family. His parents are Tatars. Rahim and Mustafa Zalilov (Jalilov) soon after Musa's birth decided to move to a provincial town, where life was much easier than in the village.

And soon the library was opened in a solemn atmosphere. In the early years, the library received 17 newspapers and magazines in the Tatar language and 6 newspapers and magazines in Russian.
