Welcome to LI, Semavi.

I am from Germany too, although I have lived in the UK for 19 years now.
The only Muslims I ever met, when I grew up in Germany, were Muslims from Turkey.
I just googled and found on wikipedia that with an overall population of just over 82 million, Muslims make 4% of the German population.

cool


in Germany many Teenager-"muslims" don't follow the rules of Islam, they drink Alcohol and eat non-ḥalāl Meat at McDonald's or what ever. That's very very sad

Merhaba Semavi....Welcome to the Forum.

I live in Holland and it's kinda the same as Germany , the majority are Moroccans and Turks. there are alots of muslims here but most of them are non-practising.

btw is there any news about the mosque that's going to be built in Köln ? when will it be ready?

It's going to be one of the biggest mosques in Europe...

muslimische Gotteshaus soll nach seiner Fertigstellung im Jahr 2010 bis zu 2.000 Gläubigen Platz bieten. Es ist allerdings wegen seiner Größe – die beiden Minarette haben eine Höhe von 55 Metern, die Kuppel ragt 34,4 Meter in die Höhe –

That means:

The mosque should be ready in the Year 2010, it will be place for 2.000 People . the two Minarets are 55m high and the dome 34,4m high.

I think in the USA it about 5-7 million Muslims. They are soon to outnumber the Jews.

[Beybun]

I live in France precisely near the border of Germany I don't know exactly the rate of Muslims in this country but we are many in the city where I live there are many Moroccans

[Amadeus85]

About 25 - 30 thousands in Poland.

[sister herb]

I live in Finland. Estimated amount of muslims is little over than 20 000 (all the population is about 5 million).

My mother lives just north of Köln. Once the mosque is built I might just check it out myself.
(Although I do have a preference for old buildings ...)

I'm from the UK but in my town there are literally no muslims or ethnics. It's an old Christian town with a handful of churches. We do have a few Polish here however.

Not Very High, although a lot, I'd think. None. United States of America.

~Edit~ I don't live in a town, but this is for the nearest town, which I think is nearly 1000 people all in all, maybe -200. I live in a farming community, but we are really big, like, my neighbors are really far, I can go outside shoot a rifle, and not worry about hitting their property.

Here are the demographics of the UK town I live in. (The numbers in brackets are the equivalent national statistics for the UK)
Since the census the statistics are based on are 8 years olf, my guess is that the number of Muslims has risen since. We have received many immigrants/refugees from Somalia, just for example.

In the 2001 census 90.72% of the population described their ethnic origin as white (nationally 90.92%), 3.66% as South Asian (4.58%), 2.41% as black (2.30%), 1.79% as mixed race (1.31%), 1.42% as Chinese and other (0.89%).
In the same census, 66% of the Borough's population registered their religion as Christianity and 30% as not religious or none given, compared to 72% and 22% nationally. A little over two percent of the population follow Islam (3% nationally) and a little over 1% are Hindu (1%), with no other religion above one percent.

There's quite a few muslims in Saudi Arabia, or so I hear...:><:

I live in a town NEAR Blackpool. I live in the Fylde district. As a matter of fact I rarely see muslims in Blackpool itself either which I don't find surprising as it's full of lap dancing clubs, sex, booze and gambling.

[Faseeha]

I live in South Africa and the Muslims make up about 2 percent of the country's population which equals to more or less a million (Not sure exactly how accurate that percentage is).

There are also a lot of Muslim immigrants from India, Pakistan and Egypt which aren't included in that figure.
