In a recent gathering of the Royal Ottoman Society, Ayberk Efendi unveiled a long‑awaited document—a vasiyetname (will) that had been actively searched for by the esteemed Sheikh Hisham Kabbani. The presentation was more than a simple reading; it marked a moment of deep reverence for our shared Sufi heritage and highlighted the continuity of spiritual legacies within the Ottoman tradition.
The will, carefully preserved through generations, contains guidance that reflects Sheikh Kabbani’s commitment to the preservation of sacred teachings and the welfare of the community. By bringing this document into the light, Ayberk Efendi not only fulfilled a heartfelt request but also offered an opportunity for all members to reflect on the responsibilities entrusted to us by our forebears.
We invite you to join our growing family of seekers and custodians of Ottoman spirituality. Discover how you can become part of this living tradition through our membership page.
