Sarajevo Pays Tribute To The Late Muslim Brotherhood Leader

Written by Grey CARTER

By the decision of the Riyaset of the Islamic Community in Bosnia and Herzegovina, on June 19 the  Ṣalāt al-Janāzah, the Islamic funeral prayer took place in Bosnia as well as in Raska, a region in southern Serbia inhabited by Bosnian Muslim majority who call it “Sandzak”.
