Summary/Abstract: Within this work authors argues that religion and religious communities are strengthening their position in social and political life. Parallel to the process of SFrYugoslavia disintegration and formation of new states was the process of reintegration of Islamic community and formation of independent Islamic communities within new sovereign states. Islamic communities are considered as one of the most important religious communities made after the Yugoslavia downfall. Since in Serbia there is more than one Islamic community within this work we will show relations between them. In addition, the situation is even more complicated due to the fact that Islamic communities in Serbia have different relations towards Islamic community of Bosnia and Herzegovina. These relationship are the central point of this paper as well as political consequences that are produced from it.
