Sažetak

The author presents results of the research into different ways of medical treatment as recorded in the oriental manuscripts of Mustafa Muhibbi, qadi (judge of the sharia court) in Sarajevo from the first half of the 19th century. The manuscripts analysed are Ms. 113, an Ottoman medical text with Muhibbi's marginal notes, mostly names of
plants translated from Turkish to Muhibbi's mother tongue, Bosnian; Ms. 27/1, another Ottoman medical text transcribed and extended by Muhibbi himself, and Ms. 91, his personal notebook containing, among other material, over twenty recipes.
Some recipes are translated in the paper from Ottoman Turkish and Arabic languages, classified as theurgic (religious and magical) or purely herbal and commented on. Since Muhibbi wrote down those recipes together, without notes which display his awareness of the differences between them, the analysed material proved to be a source for wider conclusions concerning his comprehension of causes of illness and his approach to curing. Moreover, his notes pointing to provenance of certain recipes enable us to draw lines of transmission of medical and magical knowledge among learned Muslims in Bosnia at that time, as well as between them and the common people.
