Coles A Muslim Reformist Communist Yugoslavia at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC

A Muslim Reformist in Communist Yugoslavia examines the Islamic modernist thought of Husein Äozo, 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, Äozo made it his goal to reinterpret the teachings of the Qur'an and h adÄ«th (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 Äozo 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 Äozo's most significant fatwÄ s 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 Äozo's writings in general and his fatwÄs 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.
