This category collects articles about Islam and Muslim life in Nizhny Novgorod and Nizhny Novgorod Oblast: religious organizations, educational institutions, mosques, youth and cultural projects. Islam is historically linked to the region's Tatar population — one of the peoples who have traditionally settled the area, whose communities survive in towns and rural districts to this day.
A central role in organizing Muslim life is played by the Spiritual Administration of Muslims of Nizhny Novgorod Oblast, which oversees madrasas, Sunday schools, and educational outreach projects. Among the educational institutions, the Makhinur Madrasa and the Faizkhanov Research Institute stand out. One of the region's notable places of worship remains the Rashid Mosque in the village of Medyany.
