Lectures on Islam will be given to employees of the penitentiary system in Kostroma

The leadership of the Department for the Execution of Punishments (UIN) in the Kostroma region turned to local Muslims with a request to read a course of lectures on Islam to the junior officers of the Department. The imam-hatib of the Kostroma mosque Marat-hazrat Zhalyaletdinov supported the initiative of the UIN. In his opinion, lectures for officers are an example of interaction between state bodies and spiritual centers. "Conflicts in most cases occur due to the fact that people do not understand each other, and, in places not so distant, for a number of reasons, this happens mutually, which gives rise to evil, which, as you know, does not lead to anything good," - said M. Zhalyaletdinov.
