With the exception of the Crimean Tatars, the history of Islam in Ukraine, often remains unnoticed. However, traces of Muslim communities have been recorded since the 8th century. Based on materials from private and state archives, as well as interviews with representatives of Muslim communities and state bodies responsible for religious policy, the book reveals the previously unknown history of Muslim communities in Ukraine since the late nineteenth century: first as part of the Russian Empire, then the Soviet Union, and after 1991 in independent Ukraine. It analyzes how Muslims have preserved, transformed, and passed on their religious identity through formal, informal, and often underground structures.
