Home›Sufi Orders›Liturgical Language›Vernacular LanguageLanguageVernacular LanguageSacred & Content LanguagesScriptural and Theological TraditionVerifiedIn this atlas the vernacular is the ordinary spoken language of a worshipping community, as opposed to a fixed sacred or classical language kept for scripture and liturgy. The term denotes the ordinary, informal, spoken form of a language or dialect, often perceived as having lower social status than the more codified, institutionally promoted and literary standard, although every nonstandard variety is a full language with its own consistent grammar, sound system and vocabulary. Records that say a tradition worships or teaches in the vernacular, without naming one specific language, are grouped under this entry, because the actual language differs from place to place and cannot be reduced to a single named language entity.Vernacular LanguageConnectionsSourcesTake a Related QuizComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)Vernacular LanguageFilter Results9 entriesFounded ByAllHaji Bektash Veli (1)Who may joinAllOpen to All Genders (3)Kind of orderAllOther Islamic Movements and Sects (1)Sufi Orders (6)PolityAllCentralised Corporate Polity (1)Silsila (The Chain of Spiritual Descent) (2)Originated InAllTurkey (1)United States (1)Origin Period Start YearAll1209 (1)1377 (1)1910 (1)1935 (1)1971 (2)1976 (1)1993 (1)Parent Order / Branch OfAllChishti Order (1)Inayati Order (1)TraditionAllSufism (7)Doctrinal PositionAllAn interior path (tasawwuf) pursued within the schools of law (8)Belief may be concealed where disclosure would bring harm (taqiyya) (1)Practice StatusAllLiving tradition, practised today (8)ApostolateAllSpiritual Direction and Dhikr (7)Teaching and Education (1)Ordination PracticeAllAuthority conferred by initiation rather than by ordination (9)Rooted InAllSufism (7)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 9AliansVernacular LanguageBawa Muhaiyaddeen FellowshipVernacular LanguageBektashi OrderVernacular LanguageGalibi OrderVernacular LanguageInayati OrderVernacular LanguageMaryamiyya OrderVernacular LanguageMurabitun World MovementVernacular LanguageRishi OrderVernacular LanguageSufi Ruhaniat InternationalVernacular LanguageConnectionsLiturgical Language OfAdorers of the Blood of Christ, Religious Orders Well-attested Advent Christian Church, Denominations Well-attested African Initiated Churches, Religious Movements Well-attested African Methodist Episcopal Church, Denominations Well-attested African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, Denominations Well-attested Aladura, Denominations Well-attested Alevism, Denominations Well-attested Alexandrian Wicca, Denominations Well-attested Alians, Religious Orders Well-attested American Baptist Churches USA, Denominations Well-attested American Unitarian Association, Denominations Well-attested Amish, Denominations Well-attested Anabaptism, Denominations Well-attested Anglican Communion, Denominations Well-attested Anglicanism, Denominations Well-attested Apostolic Lutheran Church of America, Denominations Well-attested Apostolic Union of Secular Priests, Religious Orders Well-attested Assemblies of God, Denominations Well-attested Augustinian Province of England and Scotland, Religious Orders Well-attested BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha, Denominations Well-attested Baptist, Denominations Well-attested Barnabites, Religious Orders Well-attested Bartholomites, Religious Orders Well-attested Bawa Muhaiyaddeen Fellowship, Religious Orders Well-attested Bektashi Order, Religious Orders Well-attested Bernadines of the Precious Blood, Religious Orders Well-attested Bethlehemite Brothers, Religious Orders Well-attested Bon Secours Sisters, Religious Orders Well-attested Bonalists, Religious Orders Well-attested Bose Monastic Community, Religious Orders Well-attested Brothers of Mercy of Our Lady of Perpetual Help, Religious Orders Well-attested Brothers of Our Lady of the Fields, Religious Orders Well-attested Brothers of the Cross of Jesus, Religious Orders Well-attested Brothers of the Poor of St. Francis, Religious Orders Well-attested Bulgarian Orthodox Church, Denominations Well-attested Calvinism (Reformed), Denominations Well-attested Camaldolese, Religious Orders Well-attested Capuciati, Religious Orders Well-attested Celestial Church of Christ, Denominations Well-attested Celestines, Religious Orders Well-attested Charismatic Movement, Religious Movements Well-attested Christian and Missionary Alliance, Denominations Well-attested Christian Doctrine Fathers, Religious Orders Well-attested Christian Methodist Episcopal Church, Denominations Well-attested Christian Reformed Church in North America, Denominations Well-attested Christian Science, Denominations Well-attested Church of Christ (Temple Lot), Denominations Well-attested Church of England, Denominations Well-attested Church of God (Anderson, Indiana), Denominations Well-attested Church of God in Christ, Denominations Well-attested Showing 1 to 50 of 206 in Liturgical Language Of, page 1 of 5.123…5Next →SourcesVernacular (Wikipedia)Wikimedia FoundationVernacular, lead paragraphQuote, Vernacular, lead paragraphVernacular is the ordinary, informal, spoken form of a language or dialect.View the SourceTake a Related QuizLanguages: BeginnerCovers this kind of entry.Comments (0)No comments yet.
