Abstract | Today, there are many different views on the nature of Alevism-Bektashism. There are those who consider these groups as a religion, a sect, a cult or a way of life. In this study, an evaluation will be made based on the criteria put forward by some historians of Islamic sects in order to understand the nature of these structures. In addition, research on what Alevism-Bektashism is and its current status will be discussed and the reasons for the differences between the hearths in the rituals performed will be tried to be revealed. In Alevism-Bektashism, where oral culture is intensely experienced, it seems difficult and complex to classify or define the customs and rituals in a systematic way. This article will examine the methods that have been tried to overcome these complexities. In this respect, research on Alevism-Bektashism will be analyzed and data on the beliefs and rituals of these communities will be presented. The effects of ancient Turkish beliefs, Sunnite-Hanafi-Mâturîdî tradition and Shi'ism on the Alevî-Bektashî beliefs of Hak-Muhammad-Ali, the four gates and forty maqams, prayer, fasting and the Holy Qur'an will be analyzed. Thus, it will contribute to eliminating negative opinions about Alevism-Bektashism. |
