Summary/Abstract: The article titled Sarajevski dnevnik on The Court Proceedings against Waqf Directorate in 1946 analyses the court proceeding against Dr. Hazim Muftić, director of Waqf directorate and his co-workers, who were charged with misuse of office and taking advantage of Muslim lessees of waqf property. The authors here present reports published in Sarajevski dnevnik with the aim to analyse the context and motivation of the Communist government in Yugoslavia after the Second World War in their tendency to marginalise religion and religious communities. The article stresses the use of communist propaganda and the orientalists’ terminology in constructing their case against Muftić and his co-workers presenting them as exploiters of the poor and collaborators with the fascist occupiers. The authors find the communist plan to crush religious institutions in the country as a possible real reason for these charges.
