Bayramiye

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Bayramiyya)

Bayramiye, Bayramiyya, or Bayramism, is a Turkish Sufi order (Tariqa) founded by Haji Bayram Veli (Hacı Bayram-ı Veli) in Ankara around the year 1400 AD. The order spread to the then Ottoman capital Istanbul where there were several Tekkes and into the Balkans, especially in Bosnia, Macedonia and Greece. The order also spread into Egypt where a Tekke was found in the capital, Cairo.

Influence

[edit]

Although the order today is almost non-existent, its influence can be seen in Aziz Mahmud Hudayi, and the prolific writer and Muslim saint İsmail Hakkı Bursevî.[1]
