The Muslim world is harmoniously incorporated into society.Russian Federation. In the modern situation, this is a serious stabilizing factor that does not allow the enemies of the state to use interethnic strife for their black purposes. Behind these words is a great job. Muftis of Russia, headed by Sheikh Ravil Gaygutdin, deal with it. They consider their main task to be the maintenance of peace and tranquility in the country together with their colleagues, who lead other confessions.
Every person’s life consists of important milestones andordinary events. Some have it bright and interesting, others have more calm. Sheikh Ravil Gainutdin’s fate cannot be called difficult, however she is not ordinary. Born in a remote village, the current mufti of Russia went to a regular school, playing with the boys. His life turned grandmother. It was she who was engaged in his education. An elderly woman instilled in the child an interest and love for Islam. He decided to devote his life to serving the people in a religious field. He graduated from the Islamic madrasa and went to Kazan for distribution.
All this happened in Soviet times.Future muftis of Russia are engaged in the work of mosques, conducting scientific research. It took time and Sheikh Rawil. After some time he was transferred to Moscow. A year later, he headed the Moscow Cathedral Mosque. And life outside the walls of a religious institution was changing rapidly.
When great power split into pieces, peoplelost significantly more than stability. Their world was covered with cracks and crumbled overnight. People panicked, rushed and worried. They had nowhere to go to restore their balance of mind. On the street and at home I was overtaken by a deception of change, new rules, unknown principles and ideas, often terrified. The future mufti of Russia, Ravil, felt this grave condition of his fellow citizens. He united colleagues around him. Muftis of Russia were to deal with the problems of their fellow citizens. They directed efforts to revive traditional values in the souls of Muslims. There was a lot of work, because religion was not welcomed in the USSR. People have forgotten how to pray, and the faith was perceived with doubt. Sheikh Ravil spent many hours every day in order to convince citizens of the need to return to the traditions of their ancestors. He organized the work of the school for the study of the Arabic language, could talk for hours with the parishioners, deal with their immediate problems. Around were desperate, embittered people. They should be supported. But not only. They grew up children - the future of the country. If they are left alone with the cruel world, without developing spirituality, the state will fall apart over time. This was also realized by Sheikh Ravil, who worked tirelessly.
Deep understanding of what is happening in the countryprocesses, constant and positive participation in the life of co-religionists brought Sheikh Ravil deserved respect. In 1996 he was elected to the highest spiritual office in the country. This brought even more problems and worries. After all, now I had to deal with issues of all Muslims, go to the interstate level. In Moscow, a mosque has long been. They decided to restore it, significantly expanding the internal space. It is clear that he controlled the process of the mufti of Russia. After all, it was about the main mosque in the country. Its grand opening took place in 2015.
The Muslim world has now been attacked.Extremist sentiments are growing, especially among young people. Therefore, it is necessary to “set cordons” in the souls of believers, which is what the muftis of Russia are doing. Believers want to live in peace, positively developing the country, and not to fight.
With considerable authority and authority, the muftiRussia directs all its forces to the fight against negative political tendencies, conflicts and wars. He constantly talks about this with parishioners. Similar questions are raised in Muslim forums. The mufti is sure that it is necessary to resolve issues through negotiations. Armed conflicts are the defeat of both sides of the confrontation. We are people, and therefore must respect each other, listen to the opinions of others. Moreover, our country is multinational and multi-religious. Even a small spark of religious aggression cannot be allowed. Sheikh Ravil is working on this and considers such work to be her direct spiritual duty, a duty to co-religionists and fellow citizens belonging to other faiths.
