A letter of Muhammad Prozorac to Ibrahim Oborčak

Abstract

While advising people on an occasion, Muhammad, Mufti of Akhisar (Prusac), Bosnia, used words understood by someone in the audience as determining Almighty God in spatial terms. Ibrahim from Oborci, the former Mufti of Akhisar, having heard about this utterance, characterized the alleged words as kufr (disbelief) and apostasy. Defending himself from false accusations, Mufti Muhammad wrote a sort of open letter to his predecessor in office. Arguing that he was misunderstood, he proves in ten points how great a sin it is to accuse him unjustly. Our research has found that the actors of this correspondence are Muhammed Prozorac and Ibrahim Munib Akhisari.
