Abstract
The article is devoted to the problem of criteria of sociological assessment of the state of the institute of ulama. In solving this problem, the author suggests starting from that fundamental understanding of the nature of the phenomenon of social institution, which is developed within the framework of structural functionalism. In accordance with this, the phenomenon of the institution of the Ulema derives from the Islamic ideas of hermeneutics / exegesis, which constitute and legitimize this institution. Thus, the idea of the sacral component of Islamic hermeneutics / exegetics predetermines for the ulama the basic institutional principle of continuity with the tradition of the Prophet. On this basis, the author formulates some key sociologically measurable criteria for the state of the institution of the Ulema in Russia.
