Summary/Abstract: In this article the author offers a short review of writings about Salih Gašević, his life and work. We included here only those works about him written in or translated into Bosnian, Croatian, or Serbian languages and they are presented in chronological order. Surely we cannot claim to have included all the relevant works in mentioned languages but most works are mentioned here in one place. Besides, we did not include here only the works that are entirely or in most part dedicated to Gašević but also those works that mention his name or his Mawlood even in just one paragraph. We have listed here forty-three works, one of which is a translation from the Turkish language. All the works mentioned here are published in the time period between the years 1912 to 2020. On the bases of the analysis of these texts, we may say that assessment of Gašević’s Mawlood has with years been more and more positive. It is significant to mention that Mawlood is referred to as a text written in Serbian language, sometimes in Croatian or Bosnian or “our” language.
