The Teqe of Baba Ali (Albanian: Teqeja e Baba Aliut) or Teqe of Baba Abdullah is a Bektashi tekke in the village of Alipostivan, Qendër Piskovë, Përmet municipality. It sits upon a hill overlooking the Vjosa valley and the Nemërçka mountain, and the name of Alipostivan itself is said to derive from Ali, post i vendit (Ali, sheepskin-sitter (i.e. baba) of the place). The tekke of Baba Ali is known for the preservation and development of Bektashi traditions, particularly in spreading Bektashism to the Deshnica area and along the border villages of Skrapar. Historically, it has cooperated closely with the tekke in Frashër.[1][2]
