The present-day Islamic reformatory movement keeps sometimes striking similarities with historical ideas presented already on the ground of different religions. It finds its reference also in the convergence of ideas and slogans of contemporary reformists of Islam with the European Christian Reformation introduced in the West as early as in 16th century. The purpose of this paper is aimed at analyzing how the ideas and postulates of Western Reformation coincide with modern Islamic renovation movements.
