Born at a time when external challenges to the Muslim world were many, and its internal problems both complex and overwhelming, Husein Đozo reinterpreted the teachings of the Qur’an and hadīth to a generation for whom the truths and realities of Islam had fallen into disuse. As a Muslim scholar in a European, communist, multi-cultural and multi-religious society, Đozo and his work present an exciting account through which to examine the innovative interpretations of Islam. Since Đozo’s writings in general and his fatwās in particular have continued to be published in the Balkan lands up to the present, this book sheds light on assumptions underlying modern Islamic thought in the region.
A Muslim Reformist in Communist Yugoslavia examines the Islamic modernist thought of Husein Đozo, 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, Đozo made it his goal to reinterpret the teachings of the Qur’an and hadīth (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 Đozo 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 Đozo’s most significant fatwās 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 Đozo’s writings in general and his fatwās 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.
