Summary/Abstract: The introductory section of this article relates about socio-political circumstances in socialist Bosnia and Herzegovina during the period 1945-1965, due to which the Islamic Community of the country was faced with grave challenges which affected its organisation and functioning. This post-war period was also marked by very strenuous lack of finances in the Islamic Community which was primarily result of series of normative regulations issued by the communist government, analysis of which are presented in the initial part of the article. In the second part of the article, the author thematizes the financial circumstances of the Islamic Community after the issuance of the Law of Nationalization of rental buildings and land for construction in 1958. The “Regulation regarding the membership fees” which the Islamic Community presented, the Commission for Religious Issues of Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1963 as an attempt to resolve its financial crises, is of focal significance to the author in this article.
