In recent centuries, a system of Islamic religious education in the regions where Islam was the main religion gradually began to generalize and spread. This process continued until the more recent introduction of an updated and broader educational program. This article shows how religious education developed in this minority faith community, ultimately strengthening educational levels generally as well as a sense of Kazakh identity.

We used the following methods, such as the analysis of the basic concepts of research based on the study of philosophical, psychological, educational, cultural, sociological aspects, literature review, synthesis of partial results, experiment, and interpretation of established scientific data. This study allowed us to obtain the following conclusions: The essence of the concept of "value-emotional sphere of personality" was substantiated, based on the analysis of scientific psychological and pedagogical literature, and the content of the concept of "religiosity" was clarified. Experimental work was carried out among students of 1,2 courses at universities in Almaty, within which they tried to identify the influence of religious determinants on the valueemotional sphere of their personality.

Basing his knowledge on Abu Hanifa‟s theistic principles Abu Mansur al-Maturidi became a unique religious ideologist of the Khanafi School since the XI-XII centuries. After fall of the Soviet Union the various alien sects spread widely across the region which was once dominated by Khanafi-Maturidi School. The adepts of the alien sects along with expansion criticized and defused the religious views and traditions that the local people had practiced over centuries. This endangered the Central Asian Muslims belief system. The article explains the notions and relations of the „iman‟/credo and „deeds‟ which would be a basic principle of the vanishing Maturidi teachings. Nowadays Imam Maturidi‟s theistic principles especially concerning the „iman‟/credo should be studied and analysed thoroughly, thus reviving his teachings with objective of tackling the religious extremism, ensuring the religious tolerance and stability in the Central Asia.
