PUTEVI I STRANPUTICE U RAZUMIJEVANJU VJERE
ROADS AND MEANDERINGS IN UNDERSTANDING OF FAITH

Summary/Abstract: The quality of having right always and in every situation is one of the strongest egoistical qualities of a human. Many people cannot bear that others can be right, even when it is unusual to human logic. Relationship which Qur’an mentions between a father and a son – Abraham, peace be upon him, and his father is very interesting. Love and devotion towards parent from his child must never be broken, nor that emotional relationship, regardless of disagreements and misunderstandings. However, only thread that had to be broken was on the ideological level, when son – Abraham, peace be upon him, keeps his pure monotheism, while father – Azer stays devoted to polytheism, meaning shirk. Despite not being on the same ideological direction, child is always required to fulfil his duties towards his parents: Second important view on addressed problems indicates a possibility of correct views of two opposing sides, and both of them can be correct (see example of Omar, Allah be pleased with him, which is stated in the text). Recitation of the Qur’an in various ways represents a wealth in formal differences where the essence remains identical. Nuances must not be the cause of the mutual conflict.
