The end of 2012 in Russia witnessed the burial of the vice-Mufti of North Ossetia region Ibrahim Dudarov — tenth Imam killed in the country for the year 2012. In recent years, Russia topped the world’s list in the number of dead Imams and Muftis. The reason behind this problem is a prolonged confrontation between the authorities and official clergy on one side and armed Jihadi groups on the other side in the North Caucasus region. In this situation it is difficult to understand who is killing the Imams and for what, and how Muslims should respond to this challenge.
