Summary/Abstract: During the Ottoman rule in Bosnia and Herzegovina, educational institutions bearing the name buq´a were raised. One such buq´a was also in Mostar. About this school was written by Hivzija Hasandedić, followed by other researchers who dealt with the educational institutions of the city. However, it is unknown when this institution was erected and whose endowment was. A transcript of the waqfnama of the Mostars buq´a was found in a manuscript in the collection of oriental manuscripts of the National and University Library of Bosnia and Herzegovina in Sarajevo. Based on the waqfnama, information about the construction period, the builder, the character of the school and other details related to its material support can be found. This waqfnama can contribute to the study of the history of education and educational institutions in Mostar, but also to the general study of these lesser known educational institutions that were raised in our country during the Ottoman period.
