Wahhabism in the Balkans – Islamic threat or threat to the Islam

Abstract

: In the post-conflict atmosphere of the Balkans the Wahhabism began to spread (at the beginning - shyly and with an unremarkable number of members which in time began to grow and enrich its extreme Balkan milieu). If ten years ago its followers could not fill more than one row of believers in the mosques (their place was in the final rows), today the image has drastically changed in their favor. The situation is rapidly changing day by day, their numbers in certain areas are increasing with arithmetic progression which creates the opportunity for them to become the dominant groups and thus to quietly "occupy" the mosques in more Balkan cities. With the rapid increase of their structure, they have increased their ambitions and goals, but also their aggression and aggressive rhetoric, the radicalization of their goals, which opens the way to violence and terrorism of their extreme and radical nuclei. As an illustration of their violent actions in this paper will emphasize a number of interesting events related to the safety that have occurred in the recent years in the territory from Bosnia to Macedonia.
