The Religious Administration of Muslims of Crimea (RAMC, Crimean Tatar: Qırım Musulmanları Diniy İdaresi, QMDİ; Ukrainian: Духовне Управління Мусульман Криму, ДУМК) is the central religious administrative body for Muslims in Crimea.[1] It was established in 1991.[1]
In 2016, the Religious Administration of Muslims of Crimea, due to Annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation, was relocated to Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine.[2]
The organization publishes its own literature and a daily newspaper called “Hidiaet,” in the Tatar language.[3]
