520 |a This article focuses on the social dynamics of the Gülen Movement in Brazil, showing how participants negotiate their mission of hizmet in the changing circumstances after the 15 July coup. In Brazil, as in other countries in South America, community building and social action carried out by followers of Fethullah Gülen have been enabled by what I call ‘pious creativity’, an ‘agentival capacity’ for engaging in alternative forms of action. This creative capacity is a disposition embodied through the enactment of hizmet, which I define as a set of religious practices and morally invested worldly activities that shape moral subjects according to Gülen's ideals. The Islamic norms framed by their religious leader allow pious subjects to inhabit a morally grounded space to experience the world. Loss and suffering have been interpreted by followers as proof of their righteousness, reinforcing rather than undermining their sense of duty and belonging; financial difficulties have encouraged creativity in activism, extending materially and symbolically their connections within the host society. While there is a growing tendency to stay in Brazil, many may leave to other places through the space of hicret.
