In 1596, during the Ottoman Empire, Bushra was noted (under the name of Bisri) in the census as being located in the nahiya of Bani Juhma in the Liwa of Hawran, with a population of 12 households and 5 bachelors; all Muslim.
The villagers paid a fixed tax-rate of 25% on various agricultural products, including wheat, barley, summer crops, goats and beehives, in addition to occasional revenues; a total of 4,876 akçe.
Bushra supports a population of minority Christians, who have roots in the town for more than 130 years.
