Özet:

It is reported in various sources that there are twenty-six zaviye in Ordu region. The Hacıemiroğulları Principality, which conquered the Ordu region, and then the Ottoman Empire, benefited from the Turkification of the lands conquered from these lodges and the spread of Islam there. As a result of the conquest, Turkish tribes coming from Tokat and Niksar started to settle in the region. The dervishes in these tribes led the Turkish tribes both during the journey and in the areas they settled. These dervishes also established zaviye to educate and gather the people in the regions where they settled. One of these zaviye is Sarı Sâdık Seesbed in Yukarı Kızılen Village of Ulubey District of Ordu Province. Although it is not mentioned as a zaviye in the sources, it is included as Sarı Sâdık Evliyası in the records of the registers and in the memory of the local people. Sarı Saltuk is also known as Sarı Saltık and Sarı Sâdık in the Turkic world and is a dervish loved by the people for leading the entry of Islam to the Balkans and the Turkification of these regions in the second half of the 13th century and many legends are told about him. It is told that Sarı Saltuk has twelve tombs in Saltukname. Apart from these tombs, the name Sarı Sâdık is also mentioned in the Karye-i Kızılin section in the registration book of the Ordu region dated 1455 and 1485. It is registered that he had land and paid taxes during this period. In addition to these records, other information about Sarı Sâdık can be obtained from the narratives of the local people. As it is understood from the narratives, the place known as Sarı Sâdık is described as a seedbed by the local people and is used as a place to visit for relief from illness, wishes and prayers. In this study, an unknown Sarı Sâdık Seedbed in Ordu was investigated and tried to be brought to light with the information obtained from historical sources and local people.
