The Anti-Capitalist Muslims (Turkish: Antikapitalist Müslümanlar), also known by their official name Association for Struggle Against Capitalism (Turkish: Kapitalizmle Mücadele Derneği), is a Turkish Islamic left-wing political organisation. They advocate a spiritual form of socialism, believing that the teachings of the Qur'an and Muhammad are not only compatible with but actively promote the leftist principles of equality and distributism, drawing inspiration from the early Medina welfare state. They challenged right-wing Muslims to read the Quran and "try to disprove the fact that it is leftist". They have on several occasions actively clashed with the Turkish police. The association initially gained fame for their involvement in the Gezi Park protests.
