Nafija Sarajlić (née Hadžikarić; 3 October 1893 – 15 January 1970) was the first female Bosnian prose writer, with 23 short stories published between 1912 and 1918. She married writer Šemsudin Sarajlić and had five children. Her hectic personal life prevented her from developing her short stories into full-length novels. Sarajlić abandoned her work and withdrew from public life following the sudden death of her eldest daughter Halida in 1918.
