The article is devoted to studying of the activities of the muftiates of the Republic of Bashkortostan amid the special military operation from 2022 to 2026. Based on the analysis of media platforms (websites, social media, media mentions), the article presents a chronology of events and the main forms of interaction between Islamic organizations, society and the state. The study focuses on how religious leaders convey the current agenda on behalf of the Muslim community while reacting to changing social and political conditions. The muftiates are viewed as institutional structures that use media platforms to present their work and influence public opinion, especially during crises. The article emphasizes the importance of media strategies and the role of the clergy in mobilizing the population and supporting state policy. The conceptual framework of the study includes approaches to examining the relationship between religion and the state, religion and politics, interreligious dialogue, and the mediatization of religion. The results of the research reveal the areas of activity of the muftiates in socio- political life: humanitarian assistance to participants of the special military operation, fundraising, participation in political, scientific and practical events, public support for state decisions, and spiritual and psychological assistance to soldiers and their families
