Bektash

Hajj Bektash Wali (Turkish: Haci Bektasi Veli)

A mysterious sufi master that has much to do with modern day Freemasonry.

There were lots of Bektashis in the ill-fated Janissaries who were all gunned down by Sultan Mahmoud II, because this guy formed an alliance with the Bureaucracy, and wanted military Westernization. Eyvah!
