Teološko-moralne i bioetičke teme u djelu „Razgovor sa svrakom“ Selima Samija Jašara
Theological and Ethical Issues in the Work Conversation With the Magpie by Selim Sami Jašar

Summary/Abstract: The first part of the paper briefly presents the biography of the theologian, sufi and muderris (Professor) Selim Sami Jašar from Vučitrn (Kosovo). Although he is the author of several works in the field of theology, in this paper we have reflected on his allegorical tale Conversation with the Magpie, which was translated into our language by Professor Fejzulah Hadžibajrić. In this tale, in the form of a dialogue, a Dervish (in this case author Selim Sami Jašar himself) talks with a magpie, primarily about the topics of taṣawwuf (sufism) and Islamic dogmatics ('Aqā'id), but also about the topics belonging to the field of theology of moral ('Ilm al-Ahlāq). Particular attention is drawn to the presentation of the symbolism of the animal world, bios, whose essence is examined from the mentioned perspectives. Among other things, the paper emphasizes the historical context of this symbolical tale because it was written in the first half of the twentieth century when not too much attention was given in the West to the zooethical and fitoethical issues.
