A Muslim Reformist in Communist Yugoslavia

- The Life and Thought of Husein Dozo

Bag om A Muslim Reformist in Communist Yugoslavia

A Muslim Reformist in Communist Yugoslavia examines the Islamic modernist thought of Husein ─Éozo, a prominent Balkan scholar. Born at a time when the external challenges to the Muslim world were many, and its internal problems both complex and overwhelming, ─Éozo made it his goal to reinterpret the teachings of the QurΓÇÖan and had─½th (prophetic tradition) to a generation for whom the truths and realities of Islam had fallen into disuse. As a Muslim scholar who lived and worked in a European, communist, multi-cultural and multi-religious society, Husein ─Éozo and his work present us with a particularly exciting account through which to examine the innovative interpretations of Islam. For example, through a critical analysis of ─ÉozoΓÇÖs most significant fatw─üs and other relevant materials, this book examines the extent of the inherent flexibility of the Islamic law and its ability to respond to Muslim interests in different socio-political conditions. Since ─ÉozoΓÇÖs writings in general and his fatw─üs in particular have continued to be published in the Balkan lands up to the present, this monograph should help shed some light on certain assumptions underlying modern Islamic thought and consciousness found in the region.
