Who is Ahmet Yesevi, the first known Turkish Sufism and poet in history. He is the leader of the mystic movement called Yesevi. Ahmet Yesevi was born in 1093 in the town of Sayram, east of Shymkent city of present-day Kazakhstan. His full name is Ahmed bin Ibrâhim bin Ilyâs Yesevi. After the death of his father when he was 7 years old, he settled in Yesi near Sayram with his elder sister and started to receive his first education from a Turkish sheikh called ındaki Arslan Baba 7. After completing the first stage of his education, on a journey to Bukhara at the age of 27, he converted and became a disciple to Sheikh Yusuf Hemedani, a leading scholar of the period. Yesevi, who took an intensive Sufi training there, became the third of the four caliphs of the Sheikh and replaced it first. Then he returned to Yesi, leaving the guardian seat to Sheikh Adulhalik Gücdûvani. Yesidude Yeseviye Ocağı was established. Muhammed Bahaüddin Nakşbend’i, a student of the Sheikh Adülhalik Gücdûvani, whom he left in Bukhara, became one of the two great sects that emerged in that period, except for the Quarry Quarry. The Nakshibendiyah sect established in Bukhara spread over time to Afghanistan, India and Anatolia. Ahmet Yesevi, on the other hand, founded his teaching on the love of “Ahl al-Bayt bu from his teacher Arslan Baba and on the understanding of Sufism. This first Turkish i Turkish order ’established by a Turkish Sufi was first influential in Maveraünnehir, Taşkent and its environs and in western Turkestan. Later, the Yesevi tariqat spread between Turks living in Khorasan, Iran and Azerbaijan, reached Anatolia and then the Balkans from 13 centuries onwards. Bektasism, Babaism, and Haydarism, which started to be seen in Anatolia in the 13th century, are the branches of Yesevi. Hacı Bektaşi Veli, who was to be deemed to be Yunus Emre's unofficial master, and Yellow Saltuk, who was also the hero of the religious epic, then Ahi Evren, who was considered to be the pyri-myrrh of the Anatolian Ethnicity, and his brother-in-law, Şeyh Edebali, who was the friend of Osman Bey, Gluikli Baba. and more are the disciples, raiders and caliphs of Ahmed Yesevi, who were sent to Anatolia for spiritual conquests in the form of facts supported by mysticism. Hoca Ahmet Yesevî, who educated people in religious and moral aspects, explained his mystical ideas in Turkish and simple poems. Ahmet Yesevi split his time into three. In most of the day, he would engage in worship and dhikr. In the second part, he used to teach his disciples the biblical sciences. In the third part, he used to make a living with forehead sweat and scoop and sell them. As it is understood from the menkibas about Yesevi, it was criticized by some scholars in the period due to the dhikhi style. In some of his poems, he criticized false scholars and false scholars. The most common topics in his conversations and poems are the love of Allah and the prophet, protecting the poor and orphans, respecting the religious rules, good morals, dhikr, fighting the self, criticizing oneself (melâmet), thinking about death, spirituality and the evil of claiming the sheik without exceeding these orders. they issue. It is said that when Ahmet Yesevi reached the age of sixty-three, he had a small room in the form of a orchard under the floor in his dervish lodge. He spent most of his life there with worship and contemplation. Although Ahmet Yesevi had a son, Abraham, he died while he was still alive. Yesevi's daughter Gevher named by the girl continued. As in Turkestan, Medagunia and Central Asia, there were many famous figures in Anatolia that counted themselves from the generation of Ahmed Yesevi. Samarkandi Sheikh Zekeriyy, Skopje Şâir Atâ and Evliya Çelebi are some of these names. Ahmet Yesevi died in 1166 at the age of 73 in Kazakhstan.

It is a very beautiful MOSQUE and square, it is very large, but it has no contribution, that huge courtyard and the area around it is empty. So if the shops here are open at night, it would be more beautiful for the mosque community and night drivers. I don't have the courage to do it. Every time I go to Istanbul, I recommend.I recommend it. Çankiri is small but as I said, its potential is great.

It has a perfect mosque and a perfect congregation, the mosque is full, I found super peace If I go again, I hope I don't go there without praying.
