Dear brothers, Bektashi clerics!
Dear myhib, benefactors, brothers and sisters, the pilgrim of the tekke that have the name of our myrshid, dede Reshat Bardhi!
Allow me to wish and bless you for the opening day of the tekke in Saranda, wishing with all my heart that this object of cult and special worship, always remain the house of our love for the Creator, for Haxhi Bektash Veliu, for our twelve imams pure, golden of Bektashi fathers and dervishes all over the world!
May God fulfill all our desires in the eternal spiritual journey!
Exactly on this day, 11 years ago, our grandfather Reshati gathered us in Saranda, with the joy and light of his soul, to lay the foundations of that new tekke, which would not only spread the traditional wisdom to the people. Bektashi, but would adorn our southern city with its beauty. To the synagogue built over thousands of years, to the ancient Orthodox churches, as well as to the mosque, the tekke building would now be added, giving eternal love and brotherhood, to the religious mosaic, renewing to all of us, the idea of religious brotherhood, this wealth inherited for centuries.
Our joy in those days was certainly ten times greater because among us we had physically dede Reshati, who by placing the first cornerstone in this tekke, has already set the milestones of extending our tariqat in these areas, reminding us that the south of Albania has been enveloped by the holy spirit of Haxhi Bektash Veliu, by the most prominent feelings of peace and brotherhood, regardless of cultural ethnicities.
All of us, remember well that even those warm words that our myrshid spread in those days, were exactly the greatest lessons, to love each other, to forget enmities and sorrows, to join regardless of religious differences, in great devotion to the Creator.
From that day until today, the tekke named Dede Reshati Bardhi has been growing and developing, gathering around itself thousands of benefactors and turning it into a nursery of eternal love. On this occasion, let me thank you dear friends, from the bottom of my heart, my brother and yours, Haji Baba Sadik Ibro, who, before raising the walls of this tekke, has raised and restored faith in the hearts of the Bektashis of that region.
God bless you all!
Amin!
THE WORLD GRANDFATHER OF THE BEKTASHIS
HIS GRACE
