Cemevi

A Cemevi is a community center for Alevi Muslims, serving as a place for worship, cultural activities, and social gatherings. It functions similarly to a mosque but reflects Alevi traditions and rituals, which differ in practices from mainstream Islam. Cemevis promote spiritual development, social cohesion, and cultural identity among Alevi communities while emphasizing principles like tolerance and respect. They often host ceremonies, discussions, and events that strengthen community bonds and preserve Alevi heritage.
