The Atheism Association, the first of its kind in any Muslim-majority country, was officially founded in Istanbul’s Asian-side district of Kadıköy in April 2014.

Just three weeks after its foundation, the association was forced to install a panic button, which is directly connected to the police station near its headquarters in Istanbul, due to death threats.
