The Bairami , Beirami or Bajrami (also Bajramije , Bajramijja , Bajramijje or Turkish Bayramilik ) are a Turkish Sufi order ( tariqa ) that was founded by Hacı Bayram-i Veli in Ankara around the year 1400 .

It combined elements of the Sufi orders of the Halveti , the Nakschibendi and the Ekberi . The Bayrāmiyya then spread to the then Ottoman capital Istanbul , where there were numerous Tekken . The community is also spreading over the Balkans , especially to Rumelia , Bosnia - Herzegovina , Macedonia and Greece and continues to Egypt , where a Tekke was founded in the capital Cairo .

Although the order is almost non-existent nowadays, its influence can be demonstrated with Mahmud Hudayi , the founder of the Dschelweti order, as well as with İsmail Hakkı Bursevî . Evidence of the Bairami order in Albania is traced back to the existence of the Hajji Bajram Mosque of Shkodra . Otherwise little is known about this movement in Albania.
