Summary/Abstract: A religious studies teacher, as the present author points out, is “endowed with the obligation” to carry the light of Islam, and this should be the way of his conduct at all times and in all circumstances. A religious studies teacher is in the same time both a student and a tutor; he learns from each and every situation and from all of those who he communicates with, teaches in a simple and understandable manner, which is supposed to be the very beauty of the profession! The author compares a religious studies teacher to “a busy bee”. The bee, although it works alone, works for its community. Its work may not be noticed within the community; still the bee works hard and makes a contribution, no matter how great or small it is. Therefore, it is essential that religious studies teachers work and make every effort individually in order to build a community that would be useful to all its members. It is time to take specific steps in order to create an association of religious studies teachers in Bosnia and Herzegovina. In the concluding words of this paper it is emphasized that the association unites all the religious studies teachers, regardless of their religion.
