Summary/Abstract: Although Sayyid Jamaluddin al-Afghani (1254-1314/1838-1897) hadn’t written his own tafseer, with his works and association with others he had greatly influenced the mufassirs, whose interpretation of the Qur’an had, in many ways, marked the 14th according to hijra / 20lh century. Namely, those mufassir, in the first place, include Shaikh Muhammad Abduhua and his disciple Muhammed Rida and, indirectly, Shaikh Sayyid Qutb. The fact that Afghani was one of the forerunners of Islamic revival, reawakening and the rebirth of the modern age is indisputable. In this work Afghani’s influential figure, his life and his ideas have been presented, so that we could be reminded of the significance and the role that this great champion played in the development of the liberation and reformist thought, hoping that he will remain a stimulus for the Bosniaks in their struggle for survival and human dignity.
