Muhamed Jusufspahić was born in 1968 in Belgrade which at the time was a part of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.

In the early 1990s, he married a Serb woman, Gordana, with whom he has two sons, Amar and Ahmed and a daughter, Sara.

On that occasion, the entire Riyaset of the Islamic Community of Serbia, headed by Reis-ul-ulema Adem Zilkić, was relieved of duty.

Until the election of the new reis-ul-ulema, it was decided that the Islamic Community of Serbia should be led by a commission composed of three muftis (Serbian, Sandzak and Presevo).

Muhamed Jusufspahić, on the other hand, points out that "the schism among Muslims was caused by those who divide them on the basis of ethnicity and turn them away from their native Serbia.
