SHARED HERITAGE AND STRONG TIES EMPHASIZED AT THE BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA WAQF DAYS

4/24/2026

Our Director General, Mr. Sinan Aksu, attended the opening program of the 14th Bosnia and Herzegovina Waqf Days held this year.

In his speech at the program—where the deep-rooted ties between our spiritual geography and Bosnia and Herzegovina were strongly emphasized—our Director General:

  • Underlined that waqf civilization is not merely a system of charity, but also a deeply rooted value that preserves shared memory and brotherhood;
  • Highlighted that bonds of brotherhood are strengthened through social assistance, iftar programs, and cultural projects;
  • Stated that, thanks to strong cooperation, numerous waqf monuments across a wide geography—from Sarajevo to Mostar—have been restored (revitalized) in accordance with their original form;
  • Emphasized that ongoing and planned efforts aim to further enhance the visibility of our waqf heritage.

"As for the issues related to the foundations, it is known that foundations constitute an important asset of our country. I hope that all members of Council of Ministers together with the Ministry Of Religious Affairs and even the Supreme Assembly examine this issue with great care and that this great institution is protected from devastation and made useful for our country in order to ensure that our country can benefit from this asset as necessary."
