Abstract
The article deals with the connections between the radical feelings of a part of the newly Islamized youth on one hand-side and the propaganda increase of Islamic extremists who use pseudo-Islamic slogans in order to provoke public disorder on the other. The author claims that the best results in helping the Muslim youth to avoid the ideological traps can be achieved when the State cooperates with Islamic educational bodies. She points out that the most effective tool to fully achieve this goal can be the well-structured national system of Islamic religious education. The support and attention from the State is one of decisive factors in revival of the Muslim theological schools in Russia. In the present situation the important role in this process plays the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia. Being a State regulator in the field of education and science, the ministry is actively involved in the implementation of the program for the development of Islamic education in Russia.
