Co-President and then a member of Federal Political Council of the political party Russian Patriots since September 2005. Vice-President of the International Muslim Film Festival Golden Minbar since April 2006. In 2007, the Islamic Cultural Center of Russia headed by Niyazov became a public division of Russian Muftis Council. Chairman of the Board of Directors of Islamic social network Salamworld since 2011. He was awarded the Medal “For Distinction in Military Service” 2nd class and the Medal “For Construction of the Baikal-Amur Railway”. He is married and has two children.

In the early 1990s he, as a head of the ICC of Russia, initiated entrance of Russia into the Organisation of the Islamic Conference (now – the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, OIC), which he views as not only strategic, but also economic profit for Russia. This initiative has gained support from Russian Muslim community and, due to the Russian President Vladimir Putin’s goodwill, in June 2005 Russia received a status of observer in Organization Islamic Cooperation. The ICC of Russia has always supported complex development of Russian foreign policy and balanced cooperation both with East and West.

In 1990s the ICC of Russia actively assisted the development of Hadj system in Russia, built more than 70 mosques in various regions of the country, participated in creation of educational infrastructure, assisted unification of Muslim clergy into Russian Muftis Council under spiritual guidance of which it still works.

Abdul-Vakhed Niyazov is a legitimate leader of the oldest public Muslim organization in Russia (the ICC was founded in 1991). The ICC of Russia is a public division of Russian Muftis Council, and we must remember that the decision on including this structure into Muftis Council was made collectively at one of the RMC meetings – meaning that it received support from the most RMC muftis.

During 2011 Abdul-Vahed Niyazov made important trips to Muslim countries had gained support from leaders of Muslim communities around the world.

We have known our brother and compatriot Abdul-Vakhed Niyazov for a very long time. He has done a lot not only for the Muslims of our Region, but as well for the establishment of the largest Muslim organization in Russia – Muslim Spiritual Directorate of Asian Part of Russia.

Abdul-Vakhed Niyazov is the President of the ICC of Russia – a public division of RMC – and that means that all his work is conducted under the supervision and blessing of the President of Muftis Council, Rawil Gaynetdin, Niyazov expresses not his own point of view, but the point of view of RMC, and he should be regarded as acting on behalf of Rawil Gaynetdin. As for his work in the uniting process, I would like to thank Abdul-Vakhed Niyazov for the work that he is doing for uniting Russian Muslims. Our brother is very capable of working and he loves to work, he is deeply concerned about Muslim unity.

During the past year the ICC of Russia under A.V. Niazov’s guidance participated in projects vital for the Russian Ummah. They include International Conference Russia – Muslim World: Partnership for Stability in September 2009; preparation of a concept of a Muslim TV channel, which was initiated by the Russian President Dmitry Medvedev in 2009; and launching of big project on unification of centralized spiritual Muslim structures of Russia, which was blessed by all three key leaders of Russian Muslims – head of Russian Muftis Council Rawil Gaynetdin, head of Central Muslim Spiritual Directorate Talgat Tadzhuddin and head of the Coordination Center of North Caucasus Muslims Ismail Berdiyev.

Today is the best time to implement such a global project. On one hand, we are faced with major threats and an immenselack of global peace; on the other hand, there is antremendous vacuum and responsibility regarding Muslims. As an umma, we have a population of 1.5 billion and thus the potential to fulfill this responsibility. Not only do we possess natural resources, but we also have ‘value resources’. Islam is essentially a religion of witnessing; thus, we must fulfill this responsibility, using the resources of value that we possess. In this respect, Salamworld must be open to all.While we do not approve of the unlawful, the ‘haram’, we still should not exclude non-Muslims. This is what our responsibility calls for. For this reason, we must render this product as competitive as can be, so that our product is sought-after and appealing.

To say that Abdul-Vakhed Niyazov plays a very positive role in Russian Muslim community’s life is to say nothing. I know brother Abdul-Vakhed since the 1990s and deeply respect him. I must say that the Russian Muslim ummah lacks such modern and effective public figures that can easily establish relationship with government authorities, deputies and spiritual leaders. I would like to mention that when he heard the appeal of Central Muslim Spiritual Directorate President Talgat Tadzhuddin to unite Russian muftiats, Abdul-Vakhed was one of the first to respond. He studied opportunities and prospects of such unification by the order of Rawil Gaynetdin. Niyazov is convinced that Russian Muslims should reach unity.

As for Abdul-Vakhed Nyazov, he was one of the first who took Talgat Tadzhuddin’s initiative of uniting and has made a huge effort to reach this goal. But Niyazov does not act on his own – he is a President of public division of RMC and acts only after Rawil Gaynetdin’s authorization. In my opinion, Rawil Gaynetdin is the true leader of Russian Muslims.

Muslim spiritual centers unification is exactly what most of Muslims want, this unification is essential, it is vital. Niyazov’s work is extremely useful to the ummah.

The ICC of Russia conducts a great job to revive Islam, but unfortunately there is no other Muslim public person of Niyazov’s scale in our country. Our ummah needs people like him. Nafigulla Ashirov, President of Muslim Spiritual Directorate of Asian Part of Russia, Co-President of RMC
