Islam in Bosnia Herzegovina

इस्लाम यू बोस्नी मैं हर्सेगोविनी -बोस्नियाई (Bosanski) भाषा रखें

(English)

Islam is the most widespread religion in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It was introduced to the local population in the 15th and 16th centuries as a result of the Ottoman conquest of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Muslims comprise the single largest religious community in Bosnia and Herzegovina (51%) (the other two large groups being Eastern Orthodox Christians (31%),almost all of whom identify as Bosnian Serbs, and Roman Catholics (15%), almost all of whom identify as Bosnian Croats).[1]

Almost all of Bosnian Muslims identify as Bosniaks; until 1993, Bosnians of Muslim culture or origin (regardless of religious practice) were defined by Yugoslav authorities as Muslimani (Muslims) in an ethno-national sense (hence the capital M), though some people of Bosniak or Muslim backgrounds identified their nationality (in an ethnic sense rather than strictly in terms of citizenship) as "Yugoslav" prior to the early 1990s. A small minority of non-Bosniak Muslims in Bosnia and Herzegovina include Albanians, Roma and Turks.

Islam u Bosni i Hercegovini ima bogatu i višestoljetnu tradiciju čiji korijeni sežu nekoliko stoljeća unazad kroz historiju. Većinu muslimanskog stanovništva u BiH čine Bošnjaci, koji su uglavnom hanefijski suniti, iako su sufije imale veliki historijski uticaj na ovim prostorima. Međutim, zbog savremenih uticaja tokom prethodnih 75 godina danas ima i ateista, agnostika i deista Bošnjaka. Pored Bošnjaka u muslimansku populaciju u BiH se ubrajaju i Turci, Albanci kao i dio Roma koji ovu državu smatraju svojom domovinom.

Od ukupno 3.531.159 stanovnika koliko ih je živjelo u Bosni i Hercegovini (prema popisu iz 2013), 1.790.454 stanovnika se izjasnilo kao pripadnici islamske vjeroispovijesti što je više od polovine od ukupnog stanovništva države, odnosno 50,70%.
