Democratic Muslims ({{langx|da|Demokratiske muslimer}}) is a political organization in Denmark founded by Naser Khader, Yildiz Akdogan and other Muslims in February 2006 after the escalation of the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy.Ritzau: [http://www.kristeligt-dagblad.dk/artikel/6654:Danmark--Ny-formand-for-Demokratiske-Muslimer Ny formand for Demokratiske Muslimer] Kristeligt Dagblad, (in Danish) 26 February 2007 Its goal is a peaceful co-existence of Islam and democracy. Its original name was Moderate Muslims, but they changed their name quickly after being founded.
