Dergah

Dergah is a place in Sufism where spiritual guides are present and disciples receive spiritual education. It is generally known as a place where dhikr, prayer, and various acts of worship are performed. Dergahs are also areas where communities come together to share their religious and spiritual knowledge. These places often host social assistance and solidarity activities as well. For seekers, a dergah is not only a place of education but also an environment where spiritual friendships are established and sharing takes place. Therefore, the life in a dergah significantly reflects the social aspect of the Sufi community.
