Nurism ( or Nur Cemaati) is an Islamic movement that was founded in Turkey in the early 20th century and based on the writings of Said Nursi (1877–1960). He emphasized the importance of salvation in both this life and the afterlife through education and freedom, the synthesis of Islam and science, and democracy as the best form of governance within the rule of law.
