Idžazetnama in the Gazi Husrev-bey’s library - Contribution to the study of history of education in Bosnia and Herzegovina -

Summary/Abstract: In the Islamic world there existed a tradition, whereby a teacher issued an idžazetnama (diploma) to his pupil who followed his lectures. Apart from the name of the student, the scientific field for which he receives his idžazetnama, the place and year of issuing, the teacher regularly cited not only his own name and the name of his teacher, but very often names of the teachers who dealt with that scientific field, further up to the founder of that discipline. That line of the teachers, very often went up to Prophet Muhammed (P.B.U.H.). With careful analysis of the line of teachers in the idžazetnama of ours alims we can establish the line of scholars who brought certain Islamic disciplines to this region. Because of that, apart from vakufnamas, idžazetnamas present a primary document for teaching history of schooling, education, and in general, the cultural history of Bosniaks. Since then up to now, there is no published list /register of idžezatnamas from the manuscripts in the Gazi Husrev-bey Library in Sarajevo. Because of the fact that such a record could be used as a basis for further research, we believe that such a record is needed indeed. As a sample for this work, register of vakufnamas prepared by late Zejnil ef. Fajić, some twenty years ago could be studied.
