The legal nature of regulating social relations based on the creation of rights and guarantees to free expression of religious beliefs, satisfaction of religious needs, promotion of the right to free expression of ideological socio-philosophical spiritual views, and protection of the rights of religious organizations is demonstrated. Doctrinal and comparative legal methods are applied. The concept of the right to freedom of convictions and religion in the philosophical and legal aspect is formulated.
