In this open-access monograph, Paul Weller explores how the
movement known as Hizmet (meaning "service") is undergoing a period
of transitions in Europe. Inspired by the teaching and practice of
the Turkish Islamic scholar, Fethullah Gulen, Hizmet has been
active in Europe (and other continents) for several decades. It has
always been subject to some degree of contestation, which has
intensified following the July 2016 coup attempt in Turkey, for
which the current Turkish government holds Fethullah Gulen and
Hizmet as responsible - a claim they strongly deny. In Turkey,
thousands of people associated with Hizmet have been imprisoned. In
Europe, pressures have been brought to bear on the movement and its
activities. In charting a way forward, Hizmet finds itself in a
significant transitional period, the nature and possible future
trajectories of which are explored in this volume. The book is
informed by a comprehensive literature review and a recent research
project which includes primary research interviews with key Hizmet
figures in Europe and beyond. It contends that to properly
understand Hizmet in Europe, one has to situate it in its
interactive engagement both with its diverse European national
contexts and with Fethullah Gulen's teaching and practice.
