Описание: Exploring Islam in Russia | The Largest Islamic Center in Europe and Central Asia

Discover the hidden story of Islam in Russia, the largest Islamic center in Europe and Central Asia. With an estimated 14–16 million Muslims in 2025, around 10.9% of Russia’s population. Islam is not just a minority faith but a growing cultural, political, and economic force.

From the historic embrace of Islam by the Volga Bulgars in 922 CE to the modern-day influence of Muslims in Tatarstan, Bashkortostan, Chechnya, Dagestan, and Moscow, this documentary explores the rich Islamic heritage of Russia.

We highlight the beauty of the Moscow Cathedral Mosque, the grandeur of Kul Sharif Mosque in Kazan, and the vibrant celebrations of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha across Russia. Beyond culture, Islam plays a key role in Russian politics, education, and economy, with the rise of the halal industry, international trade forums, and Islamic education centers.

Yet, Russia’s Muslims also face challenges, including Islamophobia, migration debates, and political representation. Despite these, the Muslim community continues to grow, shaping the future of Russia’s identity as a diverse, multicultural nation.
