Answer 5

I dont think so.

This time, it is true that Islam is growing; NOT because, there are a lot of converts than ever. Everyone knows Muslims have high birthrates, and apostacy is punishable by death!

But there are A LOT of people leaving Islam. There are alot that even in Africa alone, 6 million african muslims leave Islam per year!

Answer 6

I hope it is true.

Answer 7

mostly educated ones.

and that's because of the clear gap and contradiction between the church and science.

Answer 8

The fastest growing religion in America, and the rest of the world is Islam.

I am sure there are a good percentage of people who convert. One would wonder why due to all the bad press lately. I do not see a problem with it. Whatever brings you closer to peace!

Answer 10

Yes, Islam is the worlds second largest religion in number of followers. The amount of people who have converted to Islam has grown dramatically in the last decade. In the last year, almost 3,000 people in America had converted to Islam, and every day hundreds of people convert to Islam. Scholars predict that by the year 2030, Islam will be the world's largest religion in number of followers, and the amount of Muslims in America will outnumber the amount of Christians.

Answer 11

Yeah, I would say a good 1/3rd of my Mosque are people who were born/raised in America and then found Islam.

Answer 16

Yes. I was born and raised in Canada, raised as a Christian and I still reverted and know many Canadian people who reverted, or even born Muslims who at first didn't take religion seriously. I had one girl friend (a lot liek her), who acted liek a typical westerner.... until she reached 18 then she wanted to take Islam seriously. Mashallah, she put on the hijab and started praying. So yes, I think it's definitely true that not only people are converting/reverting, but born Muslims are taking Islam more seriously.
