Religious literature of Alevism
The Buyruks are a collection of spiritual books providing the basis of the Alevi value system. Buyruk means “command” or “order” in Turkish . Topics addressed in the Buyruks include müsahiplik ("spiritual brotherhood") and a wide range of Alevi stories and poems, including the story of Haji Bektash Veli .[citation needed ]
The Buyruks also contain Quranic verses, the sayings of Ali and the Twelve Imams , as well as sayings and songs written by Yunus Emre , Pir Abdal Musa, Pir Sultan Abdal , and Ismail I , known by his pen name , Khata'i .[citation needed ]
Some Buyruks are attributed to Safi-ad-Din Ardabili , while others are attributed to Ja'far al-Sadiq .[ 1]
The "Buyruks" include pillars which dedes must uphold and Alevis must also generally adhere to the rules put forth in them.
