Summary/Abstract: In the study The Fate of the monk Sava, author investigates and presents modern uses of the works of Nomokanon by Rastislav, the third son of Prefect Nemanja. Although the Nomokanon was created in the first decades of the 13th century, its ideological uses are an essential part of Serbian hegemony. And more than that, in that work, anti-Muslimism was elevated to the level of a Christian principle. That is exactly why it was used in almost all programs to destroy Slavic and Albanian Muslims. The research task of investigating the genocidal ideology of anti-Bosnia, the essential content of the crime of genocide and its threats of repetition, is not feasible without taking into account all the contents of culture, politics and economy in their long duration, which are involved in the denial of Bosnia and its religiously plural people. Until now, there have been no accounts of that work in the academic aspects of ethnonational politics, which need both theological and political enemies. The epistemological framework of the study is the theological and philosophical aspects of the prophetic heritage and their modern interpretations for the purposes of ideological homogenization and related denial and destruction of religious plurality.
