This text provides a detailed historical study of Islam under
post-war Soviet Communism. Yaacov Ro'i describes and analyzes all
aspects of Islam which relate to the Soviet domestic scene, with
the purpose of demonstrating how and why it survived in the face of
Soviet repression and secularization. The first part of the book
deals with establishment Islam - the four spiritual directorates,
the registered prayer houses and religious personnel. The second
focuses on unofficial Islam: those groups and personnel which
operated without any official registration. The third section
surveys the Islamic practice and observation of fasts, festivals
and rites of passage. The final part of the volume is devoted to
the political - regime policy, its implementation in different
regions, and the implications of Islam's survival for the national
consciousness of Muslim ethnicities.
