Abstract
Abstract
Numerous tekkes and zawias were built during the reign of the Danishmends,
Karamanids and the Ottomans in the province of Aksaray, which was one of the oldest
centers of Turkish-Islamic culture in the Central Anatolia and fifteen of those had
survived until the XVIIIth and XIXth centuries that is the case of this research. In this
study, it was interrogated that which religious orders’ traditions were followed in
tekkes and zawias that were the cores of training, practice, and dissemination of the
religion of Islam, and Sufism in the aforementioned timeframe in the province of
Aksaray. In the research, especially the Hurufât Books in the Archives of the
Directorate General of Foundations, documents related to the subject in the Ottoman
Archives of the Directorate of State Archives and studies published on Aksaray were
used. As a result, it was determined that many tekkes were still in operation in the
XVIIIth and XIXth centuries.
