Abstract (2. Language):
This paper deals with a famous sufi of the XVth century, Haci Khalifa (Abdullah Kastamonî, d. 1489) and his dervish lodges and his disciples (dervishes). Haci Khalifa was regarded as a sufi sage like many other sufis during the Ottoman period. It was believed that he has mastered both inner religious knowledge (İlm-i batin) and other religious seciences (ilm-i zahir). For his entellectual quality and his sufi personality, his lodge became an attractive place not only for ordinary Ottoman people but also for the statesmen and scholars, i.e. sadrazam, kazasker, kadı, müderris. Since his lodge gathered people from different sections of the society, it became a center for charity, co-operation and fraternity for the disciples with diverse backgrounds.
