Abstract

Religiosity of people with disabilities remains poorly understood and is often misunderstood. This aspect of life often overlooked or considered unimportant. Based on the data and experience of people begin to understand and take seriously the spirituality in the lives of people with disabilities. Ignoring this dimension have significant moral, legal and interpersonal consequences. Our study will answer the questions: what is the level of religious literacy among people with disabilities; how people in different religious organizations belong to the disability; in some religions a disability is seen as a punishment for sin; how people with disabilities use their right to freedom of conscience; the extent to which religious groups understand the problems faced by persons with disabilities; as religious centers available for them in Almaty; whether they are equipped with, for example, ramps, sound amplifier for people with hearing impairments, Braille literature, etc
