Mehmed-beg Kapetanović Ljubušak (19 December 1839 – 28 July 1902) was a Bosniak writer and public official.[1] He attended the madrasa in Ljubuški and studied oriental languages. Kapetanović arrived to Sarajevo in 1876 where he became the mayor in 1893, holding the office until declining health forced him to resign in 1899. He died in Sarajevo in 1902.
During the late 19th century Kapetanović was active in collecting Bosniak folk treasures in Bosnia and Herzegovina and neighboring regions. He published several books, the most famous being "The national wealth" from 1887. In 1891, Kapetanović founded the influential political journal Bošnjak ("Bosniak") which gathered several Bosniak intellectuals of its time.
