Buyruks

Buyruks

The "Buyruks" are a collection of spiritual books providing the basis of the Alevi value system. The word "buyruk" in archaic Turkish means "adept".

Topics addressed in the "Buyruks" include "Musahiplik" (spiritual brotherhood) and a wide range of Alevi stories and poems among other things. The story of Hajji_Bektash_Wali is found in these books.

The "Buyruks" contain Qur'anic verses, sayings of Imam Ali, Ja'far as-Sadiq and the other Twelve Imams, as well as sayings and songs written by Yunus Emre, Pir Abdal Musa, Shah Ismail, etc.

Authority

The "Buyruks" include pillars which Dedes must uphold, and Alevis must also generally adhere to the rules put forth by them.
