"Fyuuzat" magazine (1906–1907) and its employees, led by A. Huseynzadeh, played an important role in the development of progressive socio-cultural and pedagogical thought in Azerbaijan at the beginning of the 20th century. They fought to educate citizens with modern thinking, morality, science and knowledge. Therefore, they consistently propagated various educational and progressive ideas. One of the important ideological and educational lines they promoted was humanism education. The members of "Fyuuzat" understood and also propagated the idea that it is impossible to achieve national development and happiness without creating a humanistic society. In order to mobilize the people to the new, modern society, it is necessary to educate them in a humanistic spirit. They actively fought in this direction.

The cultural and spiritual wealth, literary examples, and traditions that it created clearly prove this. In connection with the new social-political, legal, literary-cultural, economic and educational-pedagogical conditions that arose in Azerbaijan in the second half of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, there was a serious change in the content of the ideas of humanism here, or rather, it acquired a new content and essence. enriched, adapted to the requirements of the time, manifested itself in more advanced and modern shades.
