Bosniaks in Turkey in the contexs of history and tradition

Abstract

With withdrawal of Ottoman Empire from the Balkans Muslims who lived in Balkans had started to come to Anatolia. Amog these Muslims who came to Anatolia there were Bosniaks too. The Bosniaks who settled in Anatolia were trying to adapt to the new society and at the same time they were trying to keep their old traditions too. Traditions about birth, wedding and funeral have of course been changed a bit. Some traditions that Bosniaks in Turkey practice differs from the traditions which Bosniaks who live in other countries practice but some traditions are still the same.
