Wikipedia's article on the Bektashi Order, read directly for this pass, which states that all tekkes in communist Albania were shut down in 1967 when Enver Hoxha banned all religious practice, and that when the ban was rescinded in 1990 Bektashism reestablished itself there; the same article separately states that Mustafa Kemal Ataturk's government shut down the Bektashi lodges in Turkey in 1925, after which the order's leadership relocated to Albania.
