Mammadtaghi Haji Abdussamad oghlu was born on January 10, 1858, in Shamakhi. From 1864 to 1868, he studied at a neighborhood school in Shamakhi, from 1868 to 1874 at a six-class school under the Caucasian Muslim Religious Administration in Tbilisi, and from 1874 to 1878 at a real school in Baku.[1] After completing his secondary education, he pursued higher education at the Petrovsky-Razumovsky Agricultural and Forestry Academy in Moscow, specializing in agronomy and economics.[2][3] During his time at the academy, he began engaging in political and literary activities and became a member of the Imdadiyya Society,[1] established by Najaf bey Vazirov at the Petrovsky-Razumovsky Academy, at the initiative of Hasan bey Zardabi. He published articles in the newspaper "Akinchi" and other periodicals,[4] using the pen name "Shirvani" in "Akinchi."[5][6] To further his specialization, he traveled to Europe,[7] living in France and Germany for a year, where he wrote and published a scientific work on the economy of the Silesian region.[1]

From 1883 to 1888, he worked in the customs and duties department of the Russian Empire's Ministry of Finance.[1][3] When Minister Rikhtern's reform projects faced resistance from the bureaucracy, he resigned along with other progressive officials and returned to Shamakhi, where he engaged in charitable activities.[3] He traveled to Iran and, based on his observations, wrote a work similar to Z. Maragayi's novel "The Travels of Ibrahim Bey."[1]

In 1904, he became one of the founders of the Hummet Party.[8] In 1906, Mahammadtaghi Aliyev was elected as a deputy to the First State Duma of the Russian Empire from the Baku Governorate.[9][10][11] As an economist, he sympathized with the Trudoviks party in the Duma and, as a member of the Muslim faction, supported the idea of national autonomy for non-Russian peoples.[1] After the Duma was dissolved, he returned to Shamakhi and contributed to the city's public life by opening several schools.[12] He was fluent in German, French, Arabic, Persian, and Russian.[3]

During the days of the Shamakhi massacre, he did not leave the city. He was killed and burned as a result of an attack on his house by the Dashnaks.[8][13] [14][15] Later, his house was set on fire, and all the rare manuscripts and books in his library, including his own works on economics and agriculture, were destroyed.[16][17]
