Islam in Kosovo : ウィキペディア英語版 | Islam in Kosovo
Islam in Kosovo has a long-standing tradition dating back to the Ottoman conquest of the Balkans, including Kosovo. Before the Battle of Kosovo in 1389, the entire Balkan region had been Christianized by both the Western and Eastern Roman Empire. From 1389 until 1912, Kosovo was officially governed by the Muslim Ottoman Empire and, as such, a high level of Islamization occurred. During the time period after World War II, Kosovo was ruled by secular socialist authorities in the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRY). During that period, Kosovars became increasingly secularized. Today, over 96% of Kosovo's population are from Muslim family backgrounds, most of whom are ethnic Albanians.〔(BBC NEWS | World | Europe | Muslims in Europe: Country guide )〕 There are also Slavic speaking Muslims, who define themselves as Bosniaks and Gorani, and Turks. ==History==
Until the sixteenth century the degree of Islamisation in Kosovo was minimal, and largely confined to urban centres. The pace of conversions to Islam only increased significantly in the second half of the sixteenth century, possibly because converts thus became exempt from the ''cizje'', a tax levied only on non-Muslims;〔Malcolm, Noel, ''Kosovo: A Short History'', pp. 105-108〕 the tax burden tended to go up as Ottoman power relative to foreign Christian powers came under challenge. So far as Catholic Albanians were concerned, the Catholic church was less powerful and privileged within the Ottoman Empire than the Serbian Orthodox Church (and less well staffed); the Bektashi order of dervishes carried out a conversion campaign which stressed the similarities between their version of Islam and Christianity (the Bektashis drank wine and had a quasi-Trinitarian doctrine).〔Malcolm, Noel, ''Kosovo: A Short History'', pp.124-135〕 A phenomenon of "crypto-Catholicism" developed in Kosovo Albanian society, where large numbers of people would convert officially to Islam but follow Catholic rites in private. From 1703 ecclesiastical decrees banned this practice and did not accept that crypto-Catholics could receive holy rites.〔Malcolm, Noel, ''Kosovo: A Short History'', pp. 166-175〕 In 1717, Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, wife of the British Ambassador to the Sublime Porte wrote that her Albanian escort from Belgrade to Istanbul claimed to go to the mosque on Fridays and church on Sundays.〔Murphy, Dervla, ''Embassy to Constantinople'', p.102〕 Albanians in Kosovo who had been passing as Muslims were declaring themselves Catholics (to avoid conscription) as late as 1845.〔Malcolm, Noel, ''Kosovo: A Short History'', pp 185-86〕
