His ID is Abu Yazid, his name is Tayfur, and his father&#8217;s name is Isa.  His grave is also in Bistam.  There is also a tomb in the K\u0131r\u0131khan district of Hatay.  His grandfather was a Zoroastrian who converted to Islam and he had three sons named Adam, Tayfur and Ali.  All of them were known as people who chose to live a life of asceticism.<\/p>\n<p>Bayezid was born as Tayfur&#8217;s son and spent most of his childhood alone at home and in the mosque.  Although he lived a solitary life, he received frequent visitors to his home to discuss Sufism.  Bayezid abandoned all his worldly desires in order to be alone with Allah and was living a life of asceticism in accordance with the tradition of Melamilik-Kalderiyya.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6781\" data-lazy-=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/kasifiz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Bayezid-i-Bistami1-1024x576.jpeg\" title=\"\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/kasifiz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Bayezid-i-Bistami1-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6781\" title=\"\"><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<p>Bayezid-i Bistami is known as a Sufi who lived in the 9th century.  He is known for his &#8220;Fena F\u00ee&#8217;Allah&#8221; and &#8220;Beka Bi&#8217;Allah&#8221; levels in Sufism.  The level of &#8220;Fen\u00e2 F\u00ee&#8217;Allah&#8221; is the state of &#8220;perishability in Allah&#8221; and is considered as the state of mind in which a person is closest to Allah.  \u201cBeka Bi&#8217;Allah\u201d, on the other hand, refers to the concepts of &#8220;existing with God&#8221; or &#8220;being one with God&#8221; and emerged when Bayezid-i Bistami abandoned all the blessings of the world due to his excessive love for God.  Bayezid-i Bistami is considered to be one of the active mystics in history and is known by the nickname &#8220;Drunk Sufi&#8221; because of the love of God.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to his love for the Twelve Imams, Bayezid&#8217;s respect for the Islamic world, as well as his transfer of mystical teachings to his students and his unique style, brought a new breath to Islamic thought.  Among his students are well-known Sufis such as Eb\u00fb&#8217;l Hassan Harak\u00e2n\u00ee, Hace Abdullah el-Ensari, and Eb\u00fb&#8217;l K\u00e2s\u0131m Gurgan\u00ee.  Bayezid&#8217;s teachings were especially effective in the Naqshbandi sect and have survived to the present day.  In addition, it is known that Celaleddin Rumi, the founder of the Mevlevi sect, was also influenced by Bayezid&#8217;s works and fed by his thoughts.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6782\" data-lazy-=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/kasifiz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Bayezid-i-Bistami2-1024x576.jpeg\" title=\"\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/kasifiz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Bayezid-i-Bistami2-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6782\" title=\"\"><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>Khorasan Erens who migrated to Anatolia from their generation<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>His grandchildren, Isa and Moses, migrated to Anatolia from Iran&#8217;s Khorasan.

The people of Kirikhan killed Jesus there because they did not want the brothers to go.  Sheikh Isa Tomb is on a hill, four kilometers from the town centre, to the north of the Alabeyli Village of Kirikhan.
