TURKEY-DERVISHES-RAMADAN-ISLAM

A whirling dervish performs at the Maltepe Stadium in Istanbul on June 27, 2014, on the eve of Ramadan. The dervishes are adepts of Sufism, a mystical form of Islam that preaches tolerance and a search for understanding. Those who whirl, like planets around the sun, turn dance into a form of prayer. Ramadan, the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, is a month of fasting, prayers and recitation of the Quran. AFP PHOTO/OZAN KOSE (Photo credit should read OZAN KOSE/AFP via Getty Images)
