ABSTRACT

This chapter deals with the relatively recent but hugely popular trend of online publication of Bosniak hajj literature. It is primarily concerned with the context out of which this kind of literature arises; however, larger questions are equally addressed, such as the relationship between hajj and narrative, including issues of spatio-temporality, mobility, technology, and ideology. This interconnectivity of different issues shows how the experience of a hajj journey is persistently changing with time and how the continuities with older ways of expression remain crucial in self-imagination.
