The Kadić family (Serbo-Croatian: Kadići) is a family of Ottoman Bosnian noble heritage (a "bey family" or Serbo-Croatian: begovska porodica) that historically possessed land in the Bihać Municipality (a part of the historic Bosanska Krajina),[1] especially in Golubić[2] and Ripač. They were one of the 88 largest landowner families in Bosanska Krajina, who collectively owned 497 359 dunum of land.[1] The family is likely of Turkic origin, descending from Jašar, who was the son of Crni ("Black") Muhamed-aga, who in turn was the son or grandson of Deli Murat-beg of Anadol (Anatolia).[2] The name of the family likely derives from kadı, which refers to an Ottoman judge.

Deli Murat-beg achieved recognition during the occupation of Bjelaj, which he received as an award by the Sultan (allegedly for capturing a king).[2] He likely died around 1577 from battle-related wounds and the remains of his türbe are still in Bjelaj.[1][3][4] He had three known sons or grandsons: Ibrahim-paša, Crni Muhamed-aga, and Hasan. Ibrahim-paša gained the title of pasha for his military accomplishments in Lika and Slavonia.[3] He was schooled by the Sublime Porte and was later also the sanjak-bey of the Požega sanjak.[1] He also established the village of Ripač and erected a mosque there, called Ibrahim-paša's Mosque.[1] The influential Ibrahimpašić family of Bosanska Krajina descends from Ibrahim-paša.[1] Not much is known about Crni Muhamed-aga, except that he was noted for his looks ("black moustached, with hawk-like eyes"), that he was a serhatlija or border soldier/frontiersman, and that he had three known sons: Jašar - from whom the Kadić of Golubić descend, Pašo and one whose name is unknown, but who was a dizdar.[2] Hasan had two known sons: Mujaga and one whose name is unknown, but who went by the nickname Dupan.[2]

After the fall of Austria-Hungary in 1918, nobility titles were no longer used in Bosnia. However, a large proportion of the land in and around Golubić and most of the mountain Bjelašnica is still owned by people bearing the surname of Kadić.[5]
