This is the name of Muhammad (Muhammad) and the name of Muhammad (Muhammad). Ahi Universe was born in 1171 in the city of Hoy in Azerbaijan. He learnt the important lessons of his time. He is a sufi person who comes from Central Asia to Anadolu. Ahi Universe Kayseri, which is a professional dermatology, has also visited the other cities of Anatolia for the purpose of excursion, primarily in order to organize the trade here.  Ahi Universe, combining the conception of Tasavvuf with the trade organization, has established solid rules in this field. This is why it was time to establish an alignment organization in Kayseri. These activities, which Kayseri focused on, continued for centuries in Anatolia after his death. He is the one who gives his life as much attention to his life as his life. Respecting the principle of honesty in the work life, being moral and decent comes at the forefront of the topics that the alienation matters. Those who enter this organization according to these principles are well-known with good and good qualities. This has led to an increase in the number of moral and beneficial people in society. As a result, the foundation works such as tekke, medrese, zaviye, han, hamam have been built in many places.   In this work, we will focus on the roles of the Ahi Universe and the Ahilik Organization in the moral, professional, economic, trade, political and administrative fields to ensure that the Turkish communities who have migrated to Anadolu in the Islamization process of Anadolu and have acquired the country in peace and peace in this new settlement.

The Role Modelling of Ahi Evren and Ahi Community in the Islamisation of Anatolia The Role Modelling of Ahi Evren and Ahi Community in the Islamisation of Anatolia Ahi Evren is accepted as the founder of the Anatolian Ahi Community. His full name is Hâce Nasiru’d-din Mahmud el Hoyî. He was born in Khoy, Azerbaijan in 1171 and took lessons from the prominent scholars of his time. He was a Sufi who came to Anatolia from Central Asia. Being a leather worker, he travelled in Kayseri and other Anatolian cities for irshad (act of showing the true path), and organised craftsmen and tradesmen in these cities.  Ahi Evren combined Sufism with craftsman’s institution, and laid down solid rules in this area. Thus, he led the foundation of Ahi community first in Kayseri. His Kayseri based activities continued across Anatolia for centuries after his death.  Ahism valued working life as much as worship. Respecting the principle of honesty in working life and being moral and virtuous were the main aspects considered important in Ahism. Those complying with these principles and joining the organisation were known with good and decent qualities, which contributed to the increase in the number of morally justified and virtuous people in society. As a result, many buildings were constructed as foundation work such as dervish lodges, madrasahs, zawiyahs, inns and public baths. This study explores the role modelling displayed by Ahi Evren and Ahi Community in moral, professional, economic, trade, political and administrative areas to ensure that Turkish communities that migrated to Anatolia and adopted it as their homeland in the process of the Islamisation of Anatolia lived in peace and harmony in this new settlement. .
