 At this time in Anatolia there were many independent Turkish clans with little unity among them.Haji Bayram took another scholar, his murid Akshemsaddin "(Aqq-Shams’ūd-Dīn)" (Ak in Turkish means The Pure White), with him to Edirne to meet the Sultan.Murad soon understood that the complaints against Bayram were merely rumours and Haji Bayram and Akshemseddin stayed for a while in Edirne, lecturing and preaching to the court.
