ALİYA İZZETBEGOVİÇ’İN DİN VE AHLAK TASAVVURU
ALIYA IZZETBEGOVIĆ’S CONCEPT OF RELIGION AND MORALITY

Summary/Abstract: Aliya Izzetbegović was not only a statesman who led Bosnia and Herzegovina’s struggle for independence, but also one of the leading figures in contemporary Islamic thought, thanks to the ideas he developed on religion, ethics, humanity, and civilization. In his philosophical system, religion and ethics are treated as two inseparable fundamental elements. According to Izzetbegović, for ethics to truly come into being, it must be grounded in a transcendent foundation. For this reason, religion is not merely a phenomenon belonging to the realm of individual belief but also the fundamental source that shapes human ethical behavior. This study examines Aliya Izzetbegović’s understanding of religion, his approach to ethics, and his views on the relationship between religion and ethics. The study employed a literature review method, and the subject was evaluated within the framework of relevant sources. The study concluded that Izzetbegović viewed religion and ethics as two complementary elements and sought the solution to the ethical problems arising in the modern world in the revival of spiritual values.
