Examination of Christian Liturgy in the Journal Islamska misao

Summary/Abstract: What characterizes Islam is its openness to other religions and the “spirit of dialogue”, which is one of the essential ideas of the Holy Qur’an. For the dialogue to take place, the Other is required, the one who will try to understand. The journal Islamska misao (Islamic Thought) was partly dedicated to the said idea, which is substantiated by the texts that we aim to analyze in this paper. All of this testifies to a slow opening that characterized the period in which the journal was published, and both political emancipation, as well as the need to understand others to whom Muslims are directly addressed in their totality. Special emphasis is placed on the Christian ritualistic aspect, where we show numerous conceptual similarities in many religions, as well as peculiarities, all of which contribute to a more diverse religious spectrum which is in Islam perceived as a reflection of the divine plan or will. This is what Muslim authors had in mind when choosing topics in the journal.
