Gulshani

Gulshani

The Gulshani ( _tr. Gülşenî) is a Halvatî (Khalwati) sub order founded by Pir Ibrahim Gulshani, a Kurdish sufi sheikh from Eastern Anatolia who died in Egypt.

When the Ottomans conquered Egypt the Gulshani order became popular with serving soldiers of the Ottoman army in Egypt. The order was later carried back to Istanbul where several "zawiya"s or "tekke"s were established.
