ISLAM, INDIVIDUAL AND ACTIVE COMMUNITIES IN BELGRADE THEN AND NOW
Abstract
The title of the topic indicates our intention to present works that deal with an important, but neglected, part of the cultural heritage - the Ottoman heritage, as well as the position, discourses and practices of Belgrade's Muslims then and now. That's why we start the introduction by defining the parts of the title. Islam in this title, in addition to denoting a monotheistic religion that originates from the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad from the 7th century, also serves to denote a broad cultural and social circle that includes communities and individuals, whose life, actions and thinking are marked by indirect or immediate connection with Islam as a religion.
