Summary/Abstract: Dževad Sulejmanpašić was one of the first secular intellectuals among Muslims in Bosnia and Herzegovina. His intellectualism was marked by 1) deep empirical immersion in the cultural, spiritual and social circumstances of his people, 2) extraordinary knowledge of the European civilizational context and historical megatrends to which Bosnian Muslims were inevitably exposed by the Ottoman departure, and 3) deep interiorization with Kant’s moral law. Kant’s thought finds the key to resolving the contradictions stemming from the deep immersion of Bosnian Muslims in the traditional system of islamic values and the inevitable exposure to advancing modernism.
