Looking at the Islamic Intellectual Field (IIF) in Turkey, it is possible to see how different groups conceptualize decentering the West, referring to Islam-based political and intellectual movements that promise to break the hegemony of West-centric knowledge production, which silences, excludes, and denigrates non-Western Islamic knowledge production. While the concept of decentering the West from native knowledge production initially aimed to emancipate from Western epistemic colonialism, the ruling AKP government has co-opted this narrative to establish and impose its truth regime over both Islamic and non-Islamic movements by promoting a form of nativism. Besides, the AKP positions itself as the sole agent of Islam to counter Western thought and Turkey’s secular founding ideology, Kemalism, which it portrays as a form of "internal colonialism" that suppresses Islam-based knowledge production. In contrast, Muslim anarchists oppose the AKP's monopolistic application of native thought, which marginalizes and silences other Islamic and non-Islamic movements. They also challenge the West-centric epistemological dominance in anarchist thought, which often excludes religious anarchists. Muslim anarchists critically engage with enlightenment-based, anti-theist modern anarchism that denies spiritual and religious elements, especially Islam-based knowledge production. Their primary stance is to achieve complete autonomous emancipation of knowledge production in Turkey, opposing the AKP's hegemonic approach and decentering Western hegemonic knowledge production by developing an independent intellectual network. This paper investigates contemporary Muslim anarchists who develop a Qur’an-based anarchist theory and movement opposing private property, the state, capitalism, and all forms of macro- and micro-authorities, institutions, and religious orders. By examining their online monthly periodical "itaatsiz" (disobedient), published since 2013, and conducting interviews with prominent figures like Dilaver Demirağ and Alişan Şahin, this paper explores how Muslim anarchists interpret Islam, the Qur’an, and Sufism, and how they associate the idea of decentering the West through them. Understanding how Muslim anarchists construct a nativist movement in today’s Turkey is essential to grasp the diverse manifestations of Islam-based intellectual activism and to unpack the relationship between Islam and politics as viewed through a counter-hegemonic lens.
