[Wikipedia] Islam in the Soviet Union
The Soviet Union was a state comprising fifteen communist republics which existed from 1922 until its dissolution into a series of separate nation states in 1991. Of these fifteen republics, six had a Muslim majority, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kirghizia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. There was also a large Muslim presence in the Volga-Ural region and most of the population of North Caucasus of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic were Muslims and a large number of Tatar Muslims lived in Siberia and other regions.
The Bolsheviks wanted to include as much as possible of the former Russian Empire within the Soviet Union. This meant they were faced with a number of contradictions as they set out to establish the Soviet Union in regions with strong Islamic influences.
While actively encouraging atheism, Soviet authorities also allowed limited religious activity in all the Muslim republics. Mosques functioned in most large cities of the Central Asian republics and Azerbaijan; however, their number decreased from 25,000 in 1917 to 500 in the 1970s. In 1989, as part of the general relaxation of restrictions on religions, some additional Muslim religious associations were registered, and some of the mosques that had been closed by the government were returned to Muslim communities. The government also announced plans to permit training of limited numbers of Muslim religious leaders in courses of two- and five-year duration in Ufa and Baku, respectively.
In the late 1980s, Islam had the second largest number of believers in the Soviet Union, with between 45 and 50 million people identifying themselves as Muslims. But the Soviet Union had only about 500 working Islamic mosques, a fraction of the mosques in pre-revolutionary Russia, and Soviet law forbade Islamic religious activity outside working mosques and Islamic schools. All working mosques, religious schools, and Islamic publications were supervised by four spiritual directorates established by Soviet authorities to provide governmental control. The Spiritual Directorate for Central Asia and Kazakhstan, the Spiritual Directorate for the European Soviet Union and Siberia, and the Spiritual Directorate for the Northern Caucasus and Dagestan oversaw the religious life of Sunni Muslims. The Spiritual Directorate for Transcaucasia dealt with both Sunni and Shia Muslims. The overwhelming majority of the Muslims were Sunnis; only about 10 percent, most of whom lived in the Azerbaijan, were Shias.

Russian Muslims ask authorities to add Islamic holidays to federal list .2016/09/03
An activist has appealed to the Russian president and prime minister to make the two major Muslim holidays official paid days off, saying that otherwise the nationwide celebration of Christmas can be viewed as discrimination.
Private citizen YuryKurbanov published a petition with this request on the change.org website and the initiative is gaining popularity. In the message, he says he is acting on behalf of all Russian Muslims” who, according to his estimation, make up to 20 percent of the population.
Kurbanov then points out that Orthodox Christmas is currently an official paid day off in Russia, despite the fact that it is celebrated only by Russian Orthodox Christians.
Currently Muslim holidays are declared paid days off in such regions as Crimea, Bashkortostan, Adygea, Dagestan, Ingushetia, Chechnya and Kabardino-Balkaria.
