| Abstract | ||
| The study entitled ( The Pectash – Their Origin – Their Sufism And Their hospices : Holy Karbala and Holy Najaf cities Hospices as Example ) is a study worthy of research as it sheds light on one of the Islamic cultural a spects regarding the religious doctrine of the Sufism and the style of desiging and architecture of their Sufis hospices . The Pectashi Sufis sect was characterized by its shiism and their great love to the holy prophet ( pbuhe progeny ) and his progeny (pbuth) which was substantiated through the Sufis thoughts and traditions and customs . The study tackled the Pactashi sect from its emergence at the hand of haj Pectash in the seventh century of Hejera – the thirteenth century anno domino . The attempt of the Ottomans reign to put an end to it in the thirteenth century A.H. – the nineteenth century A.D. The way how that sect spread reaching to Iraq was clearly shown where samples of the Pectashi hospices were sen with in different cities especially the cities of the holy shrines of Ahlul-Bait Imams (pbuth) in holy Karbala and holy Najaf cities . Within two sections , the study showed all that was related to that sect regarding their rituals and the nature of their social and economic status and also their position and rank in the Ottomans authority ; the study showed that they assisted the Turkish army at first and then became the major players in the Turkish policy as they had the power of nominating and deposing the Ottomans sultans and ministers . Section one tackled the emergence of the Pectashi sect till its decline and not permitting people to join it within the borders of the Ottomans state and its colonies from the official side .However , it continued inspite of that prevention but with less style as was the case in Iraq . This section also showed the nature of the Sufism sect and their way of thinking and their traditions in generad and then the Pectashi Sufism thinking , tradition and customs in particular . Section two dealt with the nature and method of desiging and constructing the Pectashi hospices starting from some of the Islamic cities chronologically ordered passing by Baghdad and then extensively talking about their hospices in holy Karbala and holy Najaf cities due to the significance , this subject had in showing some (part) of the cultural a spect and the meeting together of the Islamic cultures and their being mixed in small districts represented by the holy shrines . The paper also showed that the Islamic nation – inspite of the attempts of discrimination and disruption which some tried and would try to plant and spread among its sects – but it is still unified and still the matter goes beyond this as the Islamic religion and the Ahlul – Bait's (pbuth) doctrine at the hand of haj Pectash , the founder of the Pectash sect ( way of thinking) , attracted lots of the Eurpean Christians to become Muslims due to the spiritual satisfaction , forgiveness and love they saw in it as the study clarified . | ||
