The Nur Movement (Turkish: Nurculuk) is a religious movement in Turkey based on the writings of Said Nursi (d. 1960), which promoted the concept of the Quran as a "living document" which needed to be continually re-interpreted.[1]
The group was opposed by the government during the 1960s and 1970s due to its Islamism.[2] The group fragmented substantially in the 1970s and 1980s, resulting in offshoots such as the Gülen movement.[3] However, the Gülen movement is believed[by whom?] to be ideologically different than the original Nur Movement.
