At a gathering in Lefke, Cyprus, Sheikh Nazim Kibrisi honoured Ayberk Efendi with a kemer, the elevated spiritual belt that signifies a deeper inner commitment and divine grace. Other sheikhs attended, among them Sheikh Cemaleddin Efendi, underlining the importance of this moment within our Sufi lineage.
Receiving the kemer marks a milestone on the seeker’s path, reflecting both personal purification and responsibility for others. As the belt was placed around Ayberk Efendi’s waist, those present felt the baraka (blessing) of the moment, a reminder that spiritual growth is nurtured through guidance, humility and steadfast devotion.
