These sources are found in the cultural experience, traditions and customs of ancestors. Religion and its high humanistic moral imperatives has an important role in the system of socio-cultural phenomena. The problem of philosophical discourse is the formation of the true hero image. This problem is also topical for the Muslim religion. The authors based on the systematic approach made an attempt to identify theoretically the attitude of the true hero to the avowed cultural values; to justify the conceptual multidimensionality of heroic images in Islam; to determine the nature and essence of heroism. The authors state that in terms of developing optimal strategies and resolving mechanisms the problem of forming the heroic image in Islam according to the modern context is relevant and complex.
