Summary/Abstract: The formation of the Association of Ilmija in Bosnia and Herzegovina, among other things, aimed at establishing control over the Islamic community by the state. The Islamic community in this regard was no exception, regarding the fact that other religious communities also formed their class clerical associations. However, in spite of the fact that the representatives of the Association of Ilmija in Bosnia and Herzegovina formally emphasized that the key tasks in their work was the consideration and protection of class issues of religious officials, improvement of their education and repairing their unenviable material position, it was not possible to hide the obvious political note in their activity. The management of the Association of Ilmija in this period only formally expressed the interests and opinions of their membership. In reality, however, the Association was mostly a cover under which the communist regime realized its political goals.
