Gazi Husrev-Beg (Ottoman- 'غازى خسرو بیگ' Ghāzī Khuṣrow Beg; Modern Turkish: Gazi Hüsrev Bey) (1480–1541) was a Bosniak bey in the Ottoman Empire during the first half of the 16th century. He was an effective military strategist, and the greatest donor and builder of Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
He was born in Serres, Greece, to a Bosniak father (a migrant from Trebinje region)[1] and a Turkish mother, who was the daughter of the Sultan. Thus, Gazi Husrev-Beg was Sultan Beyazid II's grandson. His name is composed of the Ottoman honorific prefix Gazi and the royal name Husrev.
He was born in Serres (modern-day Greece) to Ferhat-beg and Selçük, daughter of Sultan Bayezid II. Ferhat-beg, a Bosniak from the Trebinje region, was the sanjakbey of (province). (Expand using this)
Relative of Bali-beg Malkočević? (source)
Mislim da je Pozoristance pisala o porodici Malkočević, islamizovana porodica koja je sluzila Osmanlije a jedan od njih je bio smedervski sandzak beg Gazi Bali-beg Malkoč-oglu i upravnik Bosne. Pominjao se svojevremno cak i u udzbeniku za VII razred istorije :) Ovde se izgleda scenario poklapa sa istorijskim podacima, učestvovao je u bici na Mohaču. Rodjak mu je bio Gazi Husrev beg.
In less than three years, he conquered the fortresses of Knin, Skradin and Ostrovica. He was appointed sanjakbey (governor) of the Sanjak of Bosnia on 15 September 1521, becoming one of Sultan Suleiman I's most trusted men.
A relentless campaign of conquest soon followed. The fortified towns of Greben, Sokol, Jezero, Vinac, Vrbaški Grad, Livač, Kamatin, Bočac, Udbina, Vrana, Modruč, and Požega all fell at his hands.
He founded the Vakuf[clarification needed], which was active until the 20th century.[1]
Gazi Husrev-beg played a crucial role to overcome the Crusaders at the Battle of Mohács. His 10,000 special Akınji soldiers and his irregular cavalry of Turks, Bosnians and Crimean Tatars served as reserve soldiers in that battle. According to the Turkish military strategy, the Akinji soldiers circled the European knights while the Turkish infantry were making a counterfeit retreat after the first assault. The Turkish army was composed of Ottoman Turks, Crimean Turks and Bosnians, while the Crusaders were composed of other Europeans.
Gazi Husrev-Beg and his forces struggled against a power vacuum in Montenegro after the death of his ally Skanderbeg Crnojević in 1528. In 1541 during an uprising of Montenegro nobility, he set out to protect the Muslim Crnojevićs and the local populace. After fighting many battles to maintain order in the region, although ultimately victorious, he was killed fighting renegade Christians in Mokro, a small village in Drobnjaci[a] (present-day Montenegro). Legend states that he was a big man, so his warriors could not carry him, but took apart his intestines, and buried them on small hill called Hodžina glavica (Imam's Peak). However, its real connection to Gazi Husrev-Beg's place of rest is unclear. His corpse was returned to Sarajevo, where it remains in a tomb in the courtyard of his mosque. Above it, the following quote is written, "May the mercy and generosity of God fall upon him every day".[citation needed]

11.Gazi-Husrev-begov hanikah, škola za derviše. Kada je Gazi Husrev-beg počeo graditi ovaj hanikah, u Sarajevu su već postojale tri tekije: Gazi Isa-begova, Skender-pašina i Tuna-dedina tekija. Ovaj hanikah je prvotno bio odvojen od džamije, dijelila ih je ulica. Imao je 14 soba, semahanu koja je zauzimala prostor triju soba i trijem. Semahana i pojedine sobe bile su presvođene kupolama, što je predstavljalo jedinstven arhitektonski dojam. Prema Mustafi Bašeskiji ovaj hanikah je izgorio 1170. (1756.). Godine 1195.(1779.) je popravljen, ali je 1248. (1832.) za velikog požara koji je uništio dio grada i ovaj hanikah ponovo nastradao. Na čelu hanikaha stajao je šejh halvetijskog reda, a ako nije bilo takvog autoriteta među halvetijama, onda je hanikah vodio autoritet iz reda nakšibendija. Kakav šejh treba biti, Gazi Husrev-beg je uslovio u svojoj vakufnami: "Treba da su poznati svojim iskrenim vladanjem, krijepost treba da im je sopstveno svojstvo, da su zaodjenuti odjećom Božijeg strahopoštovanja i pobožnosti, da su ustrajni na putu uzvišenog Šerijata, da idu stazom šejhova i pobožnih ljudi, da slijede ponašanje evlija koji se čvrsto drže i slušaju šerijatske zapovijedi, da s džematom obavljaju namaz, da poste, čine zikr i uče Kur' an, da svladavaju strast i da čine ostalo što je dolično vladanju dobrih derviša i obiljžje učenih ljudi koji napućuju na pravi put."
