Fast-growing Islam winning converts in Western world by CNN

Philosopher said:
I know Islam is growing, but that is largely due to the birth rates.

Does anybody know specifically the conversion rate to Islam, particularly in the West?

Thanks!

I think we simply don't know for the US or worldwide, at least I could not find any research on the subject. However, in Holland in 2005 the National Statistics Bureau estimated that out of the 1 million Muslims there were about 5 to 10 thousand Dutch converts. Most of the converts were women who married a Muslim man.

I dont care even if Islam is indeed the largest religion in the world. I care about the quality of the Ummah, not the size. That is why I consider Christians to be losers even if theyr are the largest.

I thought CNN was one of those evil American propaganda machines.

I always like the concept of “If I like what they say, they are right, if I don’t like what they say, they are wrong”.

Interesting.

Alhumdulillah, those were my exact thoughts when i read the title of this thread. The mere mention of media cooperations like CNN, FOX, BBC etc.. bring feelings of immense hatred. Information from such media sources i just regard as rubbish, as it has been proven to be in the past many a times.
 
Media COVER-age, of whats true has always been the case, its nothing new. If you sit in front of the tv and watch something repeatedly over and over it comes across as a fact and all the rest of the propaganda along them lines.
