The Ahdnama (Turkish ahdname : political guarantee, guarantee, document; from the Arabic 'ahd: security + Persian name : book, document) was a document with which Mehmed II granted the Bosnian Franciscans the rights of free religious practice in the course of the occupation of Bosnia admitted.

According to tradition, it was exhibited to the Franciscan Anđeo Zvizdović  in the Milodraž field in 1463 or 1464 . The Franciscans recognized the Sultan as their ruler and in return they were granted freedom of religion and activity. With the form, the content and the personal oath, the Ahdname had the power of an international treaty. Copies of it were kept, the text published by H. Šabanović in  1949 . Most likely there was also an Ahdnama for the Franciscans from Srebrenica ( srebreničkim franjevcima) from 1462 .
