Bektashi
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bektashism (Turkish: Bektaşilik) is an Islamic Sufi order (tariqat). It was founded in the 13th
century by the Islamic saint Hacı Bektaş Veli. The Bektashi order was greatly influenced during
its formative period by both the Hurufi missionary Ali al-'Ala (15th century) as well as the
Qalandariyah Sufi movement, which took on many forms in 13th century Anatolia. The order was
reorganized by Balim Sultan in the 16th century.
The veneration of Imam Ali is central to Bektashi faith, common with Alevis and orthodox Shi'is.
Despite this, normative Muslims - both Sunni and Shi'a - typically consider Bektashis to be
heretics.
Bektashism is considered to have blended a number of Shi'a and Sufi concepts, although the order
contains rituals and doctrines that are distinct unto itself. Bektashis have always had wide appeal
and influence among both the Ottoman intellectual elite as well as the peasantry.
Bektashism and Alevism are closely related in terms of both philosophy and culture. In presentday
Turkey, they are generally regarded as parts of an integrated Alevi-Bektashi culture. In post-
Ottoman Albania and Kosovo, Bektashism evolved into more of a distinct Islamic sect vis-a vis
Sunni Islam rather than a remaining as a traditional Sufi order.
Beliefs
Bektashism is a Sufi order and shares much in common with other Islamic mystical movements,
such as the need for an experienced spiritual guide - called a baba in Bektashi parlance - as well as
the doctrine of the four gates that must be traversed: the Shari'ah (religious law), Tariqah (the
spiritual path), Ma'rifah (true knowledge), Haqiqah (reality). Bektashism places much emphasis
