Summary/Abstract: This paper will present the previously unknown collection of manuscripts in Arabic, Turkish and Persian, held at the Petrićevac Franciscan monastery in Banja Luka. It is a collection of ten manuscripts, of which two are copies of the Qur’an, and the rest are various writings, such as Qur’anic and hadith studies, laws, commentaries and literature. Although the collection itself is small, the manuscripts it contains are of superb value for the study of cultural heritage of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
