Freedom of belief and human dignity
In our official Instagram statement, we express that Alevis are not required to seek others’ approval of their faith or to prove it to them. We advocate respect for different beliefs rather than imposing one’s own understanding of faith on others.
As Türk Alevi Ocakları, we emphasise that Alevism cannot be confined to others’ definitions and that the dignity of Alevis is not negotiable. Our statement calls for faith not to be turned into a means of asserting superiority or putting others to the test, and for everyone’s dignity to be respected.
