Prospects of development of any country are determined not so much by achievements in some certain areas,
technologies, but much depend on the effectiveness of innovative mechanisms of interaction in the society of political,
cultural, spiritual and religious values, etc. In this process, the role of politics, religion, effectiveness of the mechanism
of interaction between different parties and religions, based on the predominance of the spiritual component is very important.
Today, there are people working in the field of dissemination of religious knowledge. The attitude towards
those who try to spread religious knowledge, who tries to influence public opinion, creating an image of this or that
religion, in particular, Islam in recent years seriously changed. In this situation the question of whether the objective
religious knowledge is possible in general, isn't academic. This is a question about what is the future of Islam, at least in
Russia, in the society, which is now formed in it. Certainly, before us immediately rise a lot of problems concerning the
admissible and tolerant relations between personal, social and religious values. These problems can be disclosed only in
specific spiritual searches, but not resolved once and for all during single discussion. The purpose of this article is social-
philosophical analysis of the current situation in the system of Islamic religious education in the republics of the
North Caucasus, in particular the modern Dagestan. Research of social and cultural role and importance of Islamic education
in the North Caucasus and its republics, as well as its ontological and epistemological aspects seems topical and
urgent necessity for today. And also to unambiguously estimate the role and importance of Islamic education in the
North Caucasus republics, its possibilities and perspectives is simply impossible. One thing is clear - the religious literacy
of the population, as well as secular, is necessary for any civilized society as a guarantee of interfaith tolerance, as
a condition of activity in a multicultural, multiethnic environment, a stable barrier against radical views.
