‘Abd al-Qādir al-Ġaylānī: čovjek koji je rasplakao meleka smrti
‘Abd al-Qādir al-Ġaylānī: The Man Who Made the Angel of Death Cry

Summary/Abstract: From the very beginning of the formal arrival of the followers of the last Divine Message – the Qur’an, to this territory, the dervish order of Qadiri (qādirī) has been here too. Thanks to that, the personality of the founder of this, the oldest dervish order, ‘Abd al-Qādir al-Ġaylānī, has been present and known to our ancestors as well as the modern generations. Still, there has been no major analytical study and it was thus natural to prepare a comprehensive monograph about this great Islamic scholar, though first and foremost a scholar of tasawwuf. A year ago, a doctoral thesis was defended at the School of Islamic Studies of the University of Sarajevo, mentored by Professor Adnan Silajdžić, on the life, work and thought of ‘Abd al-Qādir al-Ġaylānī and the Qadiri order which he founded. This dissertation was the basis of this short study.
