Poetics of Tekke Nasheed – Characteristics and Particularities of Poetic Genre

Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with theoretical perception of poetic characteristics and particularities of the genre of tekke nasheed, as well as thematic frameworks in which this genre in Bosniak literature in Bosnian, Ottoman and Arabic languages is accomplished. The importance of this genre is reflected in its prevalence on one hand, as well as more and more frequent distancing from the original texts in the modern music production. The need of the collective to have every segment of life followed by music will also realise in Bosniak cultural community, except of course, in the case of death since Islam does not approve any form of loud mourning. Therefore, tekke nasheed is also a practical form for the moments of sorrow as well as for moments of joy – it sends universal messages on human obedience to God and His postulates of living.
