If you see a Dervish with a turban folded round his cap, you may be sure he is a Sheikh — the Chief or Master of a tekkiek, or convent.
86 THE SULTAN AND HIS SUBJECTS.
The Rufi'ees prefer black to any other colour, and their Sheikh's turban is black, but his official costume is crimson. They perform their yikir, or " call upon the name of Allah," standing. Their hall of worship, or chapel, is called the scrheedkhaneh.
The Mevlevees wear a tall white or yellowish cap, without any terks or turban
..., but their Sheikh wears a green turban, because he is usually selected from the Say y ids, or descendants of the Prophet* The Kadirees wear four embroidered terks in their caps. If not a Sayyids, their Sheikh's cap is invariably pure white. At their worship they move round the hall standing upright, their hands placed on the shoulders of their neighbours.
The Bedawees have twelve terks in their caps, the colour being red. They perform their religious exer- cises almost exactly in the same fashion as the Rufa'ees.
