Identity: the queue line's bearer — Husein ef. Smajic (born 1952), Mufti of Sarajevo and deputy Reis-ul-ulema 2012-2019; no Wikipedia biography article and no Wikidata item exists for him under any spelling searched (en/tr/bs/hr/de/sl Wikipedias and Wikidata entity search), so this is a minimal record on institutional and news sources. The queue's 1952 is confirmed at year precision; no day or birthplace is attested, so the born block is year-only. Relations written: lived_in Sarajevo, the seat of his muftiate and of the Community he served.",
