YESEVÎLİK'TE TOPLU ZİKİRLERE KADINLARIN İŞTİRAKİ İDDİALARI ÜZERİNE DEĞERLENDİRMELER.

In this article, some accusations about the participation of women and men in the practices of "Dhikr-i Erre" which is the dhikr method of the Yasawiyya Order, and the claim that dhikr-i erre is a paganist relic are included and these allegations were evaluated based on Ahmad Yasawi's Diwan-ı Hikmat and other sources. The evaluation of the claims about "dhikr-i erre", the spiritual education method of Yasawiyya, which plays an important role for Turks in the understanding of Islam in Central Asia, will contribute to the approach of Yasawiyya studies to historical reality.
