Summary/Abstract: The writing of commentaries in the Oriental-Islamic tradition was originally focused on the text of the Qur’an and Hadith. The extremely strong religious tradition of hermeneutics and textual exegesis significantly influenced overall literacy, so that commentary appears as one of the most significant prose forms in classical Oriental-Islamic literature. In the unity and intertwining of different cultural identities in the Islamic civilization circle, searching for the literary works of Bosnians in Oriental languages, as an important component of the historical continuity of national literature, we find a significant number of commentaries from different fields, written in Arabic, Persian and Turkish. In this paper, some of the most significant commentaries on the poetry of Bosnian authors are presented.
