ISLAM IS THE FASTEST GROWING RELIGION IN THE WORLD.

Recommended Posts

~~~

 

Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world. This is not fiction but reality. This is not Muslim biased but based on hard-core evidence. Check out the amazing facts and figures and see for yourself why Islam is the fastest growing faith on the planet:

 

KNOWN FACTS BY INTELLIGENCE

 

World Almanac and Book of facts 1935 and Readers Digest Almanac and Yearbook 1983.

 

“Among every four humans in the world, one of them is Muslim. Muslims have increased by over 235 percent in the last fifty years up to nearly 1.6 billion. By comparison, Christians have increased by only 47 percent and Jews have decreased by 4%. In the West, Islam is the second largest religious group in France, Great Britain and USA.â€

 

The CIA World’s Facts Book

 

“The total number of Muslims in 1996 was 1.4 billion which was 26% of the world population. According to UN statistics Islam’s annual growth in 1994-1995 was 6.40% compared to only 1.46% of Christianity. The total number of Muslims in the world in 1998 was 1.6 billion (1, 678, 442,000).â€

‘Islam: Faith under fire’ by BBC correspondent Mike Wooldridge

Islam is the world’s fastest growing faith, a faith that abuts a number of the world’s political fault lines and a faith that does not draw a distinction between the religious life and the political life.

 

Islam: Misunderstood Throughout The World

By: James A. Bill (professor of government and director of the Reves Center for International Studies at the College of William and Mary in Virginia)

 

‘..By the turn of the century, for the first time in history, the number of Muslims (those who practice Islam) will have surpassed the number of Christians in the world.

 

Islam is a monotheistic religion, civilization and way of life now practiced by 1.5 billion people. Easily the world’s fastest growing religion, Islam is not confined to the Middle East. It is a truly universal force. More Muslims live in America today than all the Presbyterians and Episcopalians put together. There are more than 1,200 mosques in the United States and 1000 mosques in England, where the Muslim community has established its own national parliament. There are more Muslims in Indonesia than in Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Syria and Saudi Arabia put together. More live in Malaysia than in Jordan, Lebanon and Kuwait combined. Nearly 20 million Muslims live in China. ‘

 

www.religioustolerance.org

 

Author Samuel Huntington predicts that Islam will overtake Christianity early in the 21st century. By the year 2025, Islam will have 5% more adherents than will Christianity.

The U.S. Center for World Mission estimated in 1997 that Christianity’s total number of adherents is growing at about 2.3% annually. This is approximately equal to the growth rate of the world’s population. Islam is growing faster: about 2.9% and is thus increasing its market share. At this rate, Islam would surpass Christianity as the world’s main religion by 2023 CE.

Fast-growing Islam winning converts in Western world

 

â€..The second-largest religion in the world after Christianity, Islam is also the fastest-growing religion. In the United States, for example, nearly 80 percent of the more than 1,200 mosques have been built in the past 12 years.â€

â€There are now over a billion Muslims in the world, a majority in 50 nations. Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world today….conversion growth is also a reality, particularly in Africa where many nominal Christians are being won to Islam. In the UK, Islam is the fastest growing religion among the Afro-Caribbean community. There are perhaps 10,000 British converts to Islam, predominantly white, middle-class women.â€

Fastest-Growing Religion Often Misunderstood By Barr Seitz

 

“Experts agree Islam is one of the fastest growing religions in America. As many as five million Muslims live in the United States and in the last five years, the number of mosques in this country has increased from 843 to about 1,300. Most of the growth has come from immigration, but much of it is homegrown. For many black Americans, Islam has become the religion of choice and some one million have converted. “It is an American phenomenon, which started in the ghettoes of the north,†says Yvonne Haedad, a professor of history of Islam and of Christian-Muslim Relations at Georgetown University. “It is a response to racism…it is seen as the religion of liberation.â€

 

Times of India

Thursday 12 July 2001 WASHINGTON:

 

‘Islam is one of the fastest growing religions in the United States, and by 2010 it is expected to become the second largest faith practiced in the country after Christianity, the State Department’s international information programs has said.’

Influx of Muslim immigrants, refugees attracting Americans to Islam BY JASON KEYSER .Associated Press Writer

 

â€There are about 25,000 Muslims in Columbus. Nationwide there are from 6 to 8 million Muslims. Based on anecdotal accounts and interviews, the refugee service estimates that nationwide there could be as many as 18,000 converts a year or one convert per mosque per month.â€

’Muslim in America’: by Marc Ramirez staff reporter

‘With some 6 million U.S. followers, Islam is one of the nation’s fastest-growing faiths.’

 

CONVERSIONS IN BRITAIN

 

Sunday Times (London, U.K.)

Rajeev Syal and Christopher Morgan

 

â€The nation’s claim to be a Christian country is about to meet its first challenge: the number of practicing Muslims is set to overtake Anglican Christians…. There have also been a number of high-profile conversions to Islam from Christianity. These include the British middleweight boxing champion, who has changed his name to Hamdan; and Cat Stevens, the pop musician, who calls himself Yusuf Islam…. Prince Charles courted controversy when he reaffirmed his claim that when he succeeds the throne, he does not wish to be the defender of only the Christian faith.â€

 

THE TIMES Tuesday, 9th November 1993

’Why Are British Women Turning To Islam’ by Lucy Berrington

 

’Unprecedented numbers of British people, nearly all of them women, are converting to Islam at a time of deep divisions within the Anglican and Catholic churches.

The rate of conversions has prompted predictions that Islam will rapidly become an important religious force in this country. “Within the next 20 years the number of British converts will equal or overtake the immigrant Muslim community that brought the faith hereâ€, says Rose Kendrick, a religious education teacher at a Hull comprehensive and the author of a textbook guide to the Koran. She says: “Islam is as much a world faith as is Roman Catholicism. No one nationality claims it as its ownâ€. Islam is also spreading fast on the continent and in America.

 

In the United States, women converts outnumber men by four to one, and in Britain make up the bulk of the estimated 10, 000 to 20, 000 converts, forming part of a Muslim community of 1.5 million.

 

Many of Britain’s “New Muslims†are from middle-class backgrounds. Some say the conversions are prompted by the rise of comparative religious education. The British media, offering what Muslims describe as a relentless bad press on all things Islamic, is also said to have helped. Westerners despairing of their own society – rising in crime, family breakdown, drugs and alcoholism- have come to admire the discipline and security of Islam. Many converts are former Christians disillusioned by the uncertainty of the church and unhappy with the concept of the Trinity and deification of Jesus.’

 

You wanted evidence you got it. It should now be clear as light that Islam is the fastest growing religion on the planet. Islam is growing at an incredible speed because it is the religion of truth which offers you the answers to the questions of life and gives you a complete code of life. Don’t just be amazes at the growth of Islam; study it, accept it and practice it.

Dude they can say whatever they like but they cannot suppress the truth, it is like trying to restrain the dawn break, they have been trying to do just that for centuries but will never succeed. This is the prophecy of our prophet Mohamed(SAW) in practice. Islam will come back and rule the world again insahllah however long it takes. I wish I should see that day….!

Did you read the post by the admin of that masiixi forum? She says "Arabs who don't even use toilet paper". LOOOOOOOOOL That is so nasty, even though they don't know. While Muslims are cleaning themselves the proper way by washing their privates, these christians are using nothing but TOILET PAPER!! I gotta ask you guys, and anyone else who may read this.....If you got pi$$ or poop all over your hands, would you just wipe it off with toilet paper? Nuff said. These people have the nerve to call us unclean while they're walking around with a fishy smell they can't get rid of.

Faster Christian Soldiers, Kill! Kill!

 

Looooooooool :eek: . And I thought we were the most inconsiderate beings in any faith. Superiority walee is a contagious disease. seems like we are the only ones in denial of this hate-war we are under :D . Supose I reciprocated such feelings and wrote that we should keep on the suicide bombing to cut the christians in half? It would definetly meet the terrorist criteria, yet there is a site that promotes hate toward moslims, cajiib! May the moslims keep on rocking!
