Abstract

UDK: 28:929 Budimlija A.

The author here focuses on hafiz Abdulah Budimlia’s affiliation with harf (letter). The introduction part presents the origin of this affiliation in his early childhood through his upbringing at home and later through his education. Further in two sub-sections of the article he presents a number of articulations of hafiz’s affection for huruf (letters). In a separate section, he relates about hafiz’s time in prison where he took part in making a copy of the Qur’an in difficult conditions and of his own manuscript of the Qur’an written before and after the aggression on Bosnia and Herzegovina, during his service in Bijeljina and later as muhajir in Tuzla. A sample of Mushaf manuscrip recovered from Zenica prison is also presented here. In the second part of the article the author points out hafiz’s efforts in sending an additional message to the Muslims, through his calligraphy, in an artistic manner, reminding them of the significance of preserving the reverence towards the letters of the Quran –e- Kareem.
