Summary/Abstract: Bosanska Krajina at present has over fifty hafizes, this number testifies that the tradition of hifz in this region of Bosnia and Herzegovina is well preserved. Even in the period before the Second World War Krajina had a significant number of hafizes who served as imams, muderrises and teachers in madrasas in Krajina or as muftis. This article presents Mufties of Bihać, hafizmuderrises in Bihać and Cazin madrasas, active schools of Qur’an in Bosanska Krajina as well as prospects and challenges of studying hifz today. Keeping in mind the number of living hafizes at present, the infrastructure available to future hafizes and the relentless efforts of muhafizes we may conclude that the study of hifz in Bsanska Krajina today is quite remarkable.
