Social Concept of Muslims in Ukraine

Abstract

Events in Ukraine after 2013 - The Revolution of Dignity, the occupation of the Crimea, the conflict in the Donbas - have had a significant impact on the Muslim community of Ukraine and once again raised the question of what place Muslims today occupy in the country's life, how they build relations between themselves, with representatives of other religions, the state, institutes of civil society, etc. In December 2016, representatives of 34 Muslim organizations of the country signed the "Charter of Muslims of Ukraine". Now it has become necessary to consider in detail the separate aspects of the Muslim representation in the Ukrainian society, as well as to clearly declare the principles, approaches and mechanisms of the implementation of the Divine ordinances in relation to this world, where the "governor of God" is the man himself (Koran 2:30). This prompted us to put all the positions in a separate document, which would demonstrate the Islamic assessment of the different realms of human life and society, as well as determine the role played by Islam and Muslims
