One of the key issues relating to institutionalisation of Islam in Europe is establishing of Islamic theological studies insti-tutions and education of imams. There are different initiatives and perspective models developed for meeting this particular challenge. Analysing most significant initiatives and models characteristic for some European countries, this article places a special focus upon Scandinavian experience in this regard and upon perspectives regarding the establishment of Islamic studies that will provide a formal education for imams.
