Born in Khujand, Asimi graduated from Samarkand State University (1941). In 1990 he founded the Payvand (Пайванд) Society, a cultural organization for scholarly relations between the Persian-speaking peoples, for which he was active until his death.
Asimi was killed in Dushanbe on 29 July 1996 during the Tajikistani Civil War. A documentary was released in 2018, by Emmy award winner Chris Schueler, covering his life and accomplishments.
