VAKUFNAMA ZA DŽAMIJU U RASTOCI KOD KLJUČA PRED DUŠU UMRLE MAKBULE KULENOVIĆ ROĐ. FILIPOVIĆ (26. rebî’u-l-âhir 1325 A. H. / subota, 8. VI 1907 A. D.)
AN ENDOWMENT DEED FOR THE MOSQUE IN THE VILLAGE RASTOKA NEAR KLJUČ DEDICATED TO THE SOUL OF THE LATE MAKBULA KULENOVIĆ NÉE FILIPOVIĆ (26. rebî’u-l-âhir 1325 A. H. / Saturday, 8 June 1907 A. D.)

Summary/Abstract: In this paper it is published a critical Bosnian translation of an Ottoman endowment deed based upon the oral will of Makbula Kulenović née Filipović. The destinatary of the will was the mosque in the village Rastoka near Ključ. The endowment deed was composed in 8 June 1907. The executor of the will as well as the overseer of the endowment was Makbula´s brother Husein Hifzi-beg Filipović, an inhabitant of the village Rastoka near Ključ. Beside the translation, the endowment deed was analysed in this paper as a historical source. The deed is contextualised via a combination of the archival microhistory and an oral-historical analysis of various pieces of the oral memorates stemming from Makbula´s narrower family. According to both Makbula´s will and Makbula´s endowment deed, she stipulated for certain religious ceremonies to take place in the mosque of the village of Rastoka. She also provided for the light devices in the mosque. A total sum she endowed was 400 Austrian Krones. This ranked her endowment among the mid-ranked Muslim cash endowments in Bosnia. Makbula´s family circle got its deserved attention in the paper, especially with regards to the colourful personality of her mother Hanumica Filipović née Đumišić.
