Baktashite

Baktashite

Baktashites is an order of Muslim dervishes in Turkey. It was founded by one Hadji Baktashi Beli who lived in Asia Minor in the 12th century CE.

Baktashites' beliefs are largely derived from Shiism and Christianity. Following the concept of Christian Trinity, Baktashites believe in a Muslim Trinity of Allah, Mohammed and the caliph Ali.
