Abstract
The article provides external and internal criticism of the documents of Mufti Rizaetdin bin Fakhretdin deposited in the National Archives of the Republic of Bashkortostan about the WMC in Mecca in 1926, which introduce new understanding of the formation of the foreign policy of the young Soviet republic in the East, the reasons for the participation of the spiritual leaders of the Russian ummah, the conditions for the functioning of Islam and its institutions in the USSR. For the first time, the published report of the head of the Soviet delegation on a significant forum acquaints the reader with the background of its convocation, characterizes the decisions made at it, reveals the positions of the envoys of the USSR regarding the initiatives of the future founder of the state of Saudi Arabia, Ibn Sa‘ud, to strengthen the Muslim unity.
