Enjoy the new tomb of Bênja, which we inaugurate together today. On this occasion, I first thank my brother, father Hekuran Nikollarin, for the good work he has done here in Permet. It is the occasion here to remember together the contribution of dervish Hysen and all the Bektashian clerics who have worked in the tekke of Përmet over decades and centuries. ...I wish you peace, love and harmony in your families and community and infinite faith in the Creator. May God bless everyone!..." - affirmed, among others, Dede Edmond Brahimaj.
