Abstract
The article presents an attempt to look anew at the centuries old richest collection of Oriental manuscripts preserved on the territory of the Northern Caucasus (Derbent) in order to revitalize the Islamic theological education in Modern Russia. The authors express their opinion regarding the directions to build up the Islamic education in Russia. According to them, the modern Islamic education should be based upon a symbiosis of the best traditions in the secular and theological education, to be well-balanced and academically sound. In the future, this should become a key principle to channel various activities of the educational bodies.
