Summary/Abstract: In this paper it was given Ottoman transliteration and annotated Bosnian translation of a very important document concerning the issue of inheritance of ‘Osmān Maẓhar Pāşā Süleymāpāşā-zāde (Sulejmanpašić), a Bosnian notable who died as a Governor of Bosnia in 1861 after a long and illustrious career in the service of the Ottoman Empire. The document is preserved in the truncated family archive Čengić (İlova) in Bursa, Turkey. Since the whole archive is endangered it should be preserved in a cultural and research institution like the Oriental Institute in Sarajevo as soon as possible. The document provides extremely important data on the genealogical, social, economical and cultural history of Ottoman Bosnia in 19th century.
