Bosnia and Herzegovina is an important Muslims State of Eastern Europe. It was a province of the federation of Yugoslavia. In 1990 the federation of Yugoslavia broke down, Bosnia and Herzegovina declared its independence in 1992. The local Bosnian Christian Serbs and State of Serbia did not accept the announcement of the independence of Bosnia. The local Serbs and the State of Serbia did not want to divide Serbia and consequently attacked on Bosnian territory. The War of Bosnia started in 1992 after the declaration of independence of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The present study regarding the genocide of the Bosnian Muslims and the role of Muslim Ummah is an effort to trace and focus on the role of Muslim Ummah during the Bosnian war. With the consultation of different sources including books, journals, newspapers, and official records, the analytical and descriptive research reveals the role played by the Muslim Ummah during the Bosnian war from 1992 to 1995.
