A MODEL IMAGE OF AN IMAM FROM THE SOCIALIST PERIOD OF BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA – HUSEIN-EF. HUSIĆ

Summary/Abstract: This work thematizes life, education and professional life endeavour of imam Husein efendi Husić from Dub as a paradigm of an imam who worked in difficult circumstances during the communist rule after the Second World War. The article offers an insight into the service of Husein effendi Husić, his work in maktab and his activities in jamaat. Based on documents from the archives of Gazi Husrev- bey’s Library, the author here presents professional endeavour of Husein effendi, historical circumstances he worked within and challenges he faced in that regard. Professional life of Husein effendi is an image whose framework is befitting to all the imams who worked during the socialist government rule in Bosnia and Herzegovina and who in the midst of an aggressive secularisation remained faithful to Islam and to the Islamic Community. In this regard, this article serves as a tribute to all the imams of this period in history as an expression of gratitude for their selfless endeavours.
