The Future of the Global Muslim Population


http://www.pewforum.org/The-Future-of-the-Global-Muslim-Population.aspx

Projections for 2010-2030





md2-lede_large

The world’s Muslim population is expected to increase by about 35% in the next 20 years, rising from 1.6 billion in 2010 to 2.2 billion by 2030, according to new population projections by the Pew Research Center’s Forum on Religion & Public Life.

Globally, the Muslim population is forecast to grow at about twice the rate of the non-Muslim population over the next two decades – an average annual growth rate of 1.5% for Muslims, compared with 0.7% for non-Muslims. If current trends continue, Muslims will make up 26.4% of the world’s total projected population of 8.3 billion in 2030, up from 23.4% of the estimated 2010 world population of 6.9 billion.

While the global Muslim population is expected to grow at a faster rate than the non-Muslim population, the Muslim population nevertheless is expected to grow at a slower pace in the next two decades than it did in the previous two decades. From 1990 to 2010, the global Muslim population increased at an average annual rate of 2.2%, compared with the projected rate of 1.5% for the period from 2010 to 2030.

md2-1

These are among the key findings of a comprehensive report on the size, distribution and growth of the global Muslim population. The report by the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life seeks to provide up-to-date estimates of the number of Muslims around the world in 2010 and to project the growth of the Muslim population from 2010 to 2030. The projections are based both on past demographic trends and on assumptions about how these trends will play out in future years. Making these projections inevitably entails a host of uncertainties, including political ones. Changes in the political climate in the United States or European nations, for example, could dramatically affect the patterns of Muslim migration.

md2-2

If current trends continue, however, 79 countries will have a million or more Muslim inhabitants in 2030, up from 72 countries today.1 A majority of the world’s Muslims (about 60%) will continue to live in the Asia-Pacific region, while about 20% will live in the Middle East and North Africa, as is the case today. But Pakistan is expected to surpass Indonesia as the country with the single largest Muslim population. The portion of the world’s Muslims living in sub-Saharan Africa is projected to rise; in 20 years, for example, more Muslims are likely to live in Nigeria than in Egypt. Muslims will remain relatively small minorities in Europe and the Americas, but they are expected to constitute a growing share of the total population in these regions.

md2-0

In the United States, for example, the population projections show the number of Muslims more than doubling over the next two decades, rising from 2.6 million in 2010 to 6.2 million in 2030, in large part because of immigration and higher-than-average fertility among Muslims. The Muslim share of the U.S. population (adults and children) is projected to grow from 0.8% in 2010 to 1.7% in 2030, making Muslims roughly as numerous as Jews or Episcopalians are in the United States today. Although several European countries will have substantially higher percentages of Muslims, the United States is projected to have a larger number of Muslims by 2030 than any European countries other than Russia and France. (See the Americas section for more details.)

In Europe as a whole, the Muslim share of the population is expected to grow by nearly one-third over the next 20 years, rising from 6% of the region’s inhabitants in 2010 to 8% in 2030. In absolute numbers, Europe’s Muslim population is projected to grow from 44.1 million in 2010 to 58.2 million in 2030. The greatest increases – driven primarily by continued migration – are likely to occur in Western and Northern Europe, where Muslims will be approaching double-digit percentages of the population in several countries. In the United Kingdom, for example, Muslims are expected to comprise 8.2% of the population in 2030, up from an estimated 4.6% today. In Austria, Muslims are projected to reach 9.3% of the population in 2030, up from 5.7% today; in Sweden, 9.9% (up from 4.9% today); in Belgium, 10.2% (up from 6% today); and in France, 10.3% (up from 7.5% today). (See the Europe section.)

Several factors account for the faster projected growth among Muslims than non-Muslims worldwide. Generally, Muslim populations tend to have higher fertility rates (more children per woman) than non-Muslim populations. In addition, a larger share of the Muslim population is in, or soon will enter, the prime reproductive years (ages 15-29). Also, improved health and economic conditions in Muslim-majority countries have led to greater-than-average declines in infant and child mortality rates, and life expectancy is rising even faster in Muslim-majority countries than in other less-developed countries. (See the section on Main Factors Driving Population Growth for more details. For a list of Muslim-majority countries and definitions for the terms less- and more-developed, see the section on Muslim- Majority Countries.)

Growing, But at a Slower Rate

The growth of the global Muslim population, however, should not obscure another important demographic trend: the rate of growth among Muslims has been slowing in recent decades and is likely to continue to decline over the next 20 years, as the graph below shows. From 1990 to 2000, the Muslim population grew at an average annual rate of 2.3%. The growth rate dipped to 2.1% from 2000 to 2010, and it is projected to drop to 1.7% from 2010 to 2020 and 1.4% from 2020 to 2030 (or 1.5% annually over the 20-year period from 2010 to 2030, as previously noted).

md2-3

The declining growth rate is due primarily to falling fertility rates in many Muslim-majority countries, including such populous nations as Indonesia and Bangladesh. Fertility is dropping as more women in these countries obtain a secondary education, living standards rise and people move from rural areas to cities and towns. (See the Related Factors section for more details.)

md2-4

The slowdown in Muslim population growth is most pronounced in the Asia- Pacific region, the Middle East-North Africa and Europe, and less sharp in sub-Saharan Africa. The only region where Muslim population growth is accelerating through 2020 is the Americas, largely because of immigration. (For details, see the charts on population growth in the sections of this report on Asia-Pacific, Middle-East-North Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa, Europe and the Americas.)

Falling birth rates eventually will lead to significant shifts in the age structure of Muslim populations. While the worldwide Muslim population today is relatively young, the so-called Muslim “youth bulge” – the high percentage of Muslims in their teens and 20s – peaked around the year 2000 and is now declining. (See the Age Structure section for more details.)

In 1990, more than two-thirds of the total population of Muslim-majority countries was under age 30. Today, people under 30 make up about 60% of the population of these countries, and by 2030 they are projected to fall to about 50%.

At the same time, many Muslim-majority countries will have aging populations; between 2010 and 2030, the share of people age 30 and older in these countries is expected to rise from 40% to 50%, and the share of people age 60 and older is expected nearly to double, from 7% to 12%.

Muslim-majority countries, however, are not the only ones with aging populations. As birth rates drop and people live longer all around the globe, the population of the entire world is aging. As a result, the global Muslim population will remain comparatively youthful for decades to come. The median age in Muslim-majority countries, for example, rose from 19 in 1990 to 24 in 2010 and is expected to climb to 30 by 2030. But it will still be lower than the median age in North America, Europe and other more-developed regions, which rose from 34 to 40 between 1990 and 2010 and is projected to be 44 in 2030. By that year, nearly three-in-ten of the world’s youth and young adults – 29.1% of people ages 15-29 – are projected to be Muslims, up from 25.8% in 2010 and 20.0% in 1990.

Other key findings of the study include:

Worldwide

  • Sunni Muslims will continue to make up an overwhelming majority of Muslims in 2030 (87- 90%). The portion of the world’s Muslims who are Shia may decline slightly, largely because of relatively low fertility in Iran, where more than a third of the world’s Shia Muslims live.
  • As of 2010, about three-quarters of the world’s Muslims (74.1%) live in the 49 countries in which Muslims make up a majority of the population. More than a fifth of all Muslims (23.3%) live in non-Muslim-majority countries in the developing world. About 3% of the world’s Muslims live in more-developed regions, such as Europe, North America, Australia, New Zealand and Japan.
  • Fertility rates in Muslim-majority countries are closely related to women’s education levels. In the eight Muslim-majority countries where girls generally receive the fewest years of schooling, the average fertility rate (5.0 children per woman) is more than double the average rate (2.3 children per woman) in the nine Muslim-majority countries where girls generally receive the most years of schooling. One exception is the Palestinian territories, where the average fertility rate (4.5 children per woman) is relatively high even though a girl born there today can expect to receive 14 years of formal education.
  • Fewer than half (47.8%) of married women ages 15-49 in Muslim-majority countries use some form of birth control. By comparison, in non-Muslim-majority, less-developed countries nearly two-thirds (63.3%) of all married women in that age group use some form of birth control.

Asia-Pacific

md2-asia(2)

  • Nearly three-in-ten people living in the Asia-Pacific region in 2030 (27.3%) will be Muslim, up from about a quarter in 2010 (24.8%) and roughly a fifth in 1990 (21.6%).
  • Muslims make up only about 2% of the population in China, but because the country is so populous, its Muslim population is expected to be the 19th largest in the world in 2030.

Middle East-North Africa

md2-middle

  • The Middle East-North Africa will continue to have the highest percentage of Muslim-majority countries. Of the 20 countries and territories in this region, all but Israel are projected to be at least 50% Muslim in 2030, and 17 are expected to have a population that is more than 75% Muslim in 2030, with Israel, Lebanon and Sudan (as currently demarcated) being the only exceptions.
  • Nearly a quarter (23.2%) of Israel’s population is expected to be Muslim in 2030, up from 17.7% in 2010 and 14.1% in 1990. During the past 20 years, the Muslim population in Israel has more than doubled, growing from 0.6 million in 1990 to 1.3 million in 2010. The Muslim population in Israel (including Jerusalem but not the West Bank and Gaza) is expected to reach 2.1 million by 2030.
  • Egypt, Algeria and Morocco currently have the largest Muslim populations in the Middle East-North Africa. By 2030, however, Iraq is expected to have the second-largest Muslim population in the region – exceeded only by Egypt – largely because Iraq has a higher fertility rate than Algeria or Morocco.

Sub-Saharan Africa

md2-africa-(2)

  • The Muslim population in sub-Saharan Africa is projected to grow by nearly 60% in the next 20 years, from 242.5 million in 2010 to 385.9 million in 2030. Because the region’s non- Muslim population also is growing at a rapid pace, Muslims are expected to make up only a slightly larger share of the region’s population in 2030 (31.0%) than they do in 2010 (29.6%).
  • Various surveys give differing figures for the size of religious groups in Nigeria, which appears to have roughly equal numbers of Muslims and Christians in 2010. By 2030, Nigeria is expected to have a slight Muslim majority (51.5%).

Europe

md2-europe(2)

  • In 2030, Muslims are projected to make up more than 10% of the total population in 10 European countries: Kosovo (93.5%), Albania (83.2%), Bosnia-Herzegovina (42.7%), Republic of Macedonia (40.3%), Montenegro (21.5%), Bulgaria (15.7%), Russia (14.4%), Georgia (11.5%), France (10.3%) and Belgium (10.2%).
  • Russia will continue to have the largest Muslim population (in absolute numbers) in Europe in 2030. Its Muslim population is expected to rise from 16.4 million in 2010 to 18.6 million in 2030. The growth rate for the Muslim population in Russia is projected to be 0.6% annually over the next two decades. By contrast, Russia’s non-Muslim population is expected to shrink by an average of 0.6% annually over the same period.
  • France had an expected net influx of 66,000 Muslim immigrants in 2010, primarily from North Africa. Muslims comprised an estimated two-thirds (68.5%) of all new immigrants to France in the past year. Spain was expected to see a net gain of 70,000 Muslim immigrants in 2010, but they account for a much smaller portion of all new immigrants to Spain (13.1%). The U.K.’s net inflow of Muslim immigrants in the past year (nearly 64,000) was forecast to be nearly as large as France’s. More than a quarter (28.1%) of all new immigrants to the U.K. in 2010 are estimated to be Muslim.

The Americas

md2-amer(2)

  • The number of Muslims in Canada is expected to nearly triple in the next 20 years, from about 940,000 in 2010 to nearly 2.7 million in 2030. Muslims are expected to make up 6.6% of Canada’s total population in 2030, up from 2.8% today. Argentina is expected to have the third-largest Muslim population in the Americas, after the U.S. and Canada. Argentina, with about 1 million Muslims in 2010, is now in second place, behind the U.S.
  • Children under age 15 make up a relatively small portion of the U.S. Muslim population today. Only 13.1% of Muslims are in the 0-14 age group. This reflects the fact that a large proportion of Muslims in the U.S. are newer immigrants who arrived as adults. But by 2030, many of these immigrants are expected to start families. If current trends continue, the number of U.S. Muslims under age 15 will more than triple, from fewer than 500,000 in 2010 to 1.8 million in2030. The number of Muslim children ages 0-4 living in the U.S. is expected to increase from fewer than 200,000 in 2010 to more than 650,000 in 2030.
  • About two-thirds of the Muslims in the U.S. today (64.5%) are first-generation immigrants (foreign-born), while slightly more than a third (35.5%) were born in the U.S. By 2030, however, more than four-in-ten of the Muslims in the U.S. (44.9%) are expected to be native-born.
  • The top countries of origin for Muslim immigrants to the U.S. in 2009 were Pakistan and Bangladesh. They are expected to remain the top countries of origin for Muslim immigrants to the U.S. in 2030.

About the Report

This report makes demographic projections. Projections are not the same as predictions. Rather, they are estimates built on current population data and assumptions about demographic trends; they are what will happen if the current data are accurate and the trends play out as expected. But many things – immigration laws, economic conditions, natural disasters, armed conflicts, scientific discoveries, social movements and political upheavals, to name just a few – can shift demographic trends in unforeseen ways, which is why this report adheres to a modest time frame, looking just 20 years down the road. Even so, there is no guarantee that Muslim populations will grow at precisely the rates anticipated in this report and not be affected by unforeseen events, such as political decisions on immigration quotas or national campaigns to encourage larger or smaller families.

The projections presented in this report are the medium figures in a range of three scenarios – high, medium and low – generated from models commonly used by demographers around the world to forecast changes in population size and composition. The models follow what is known as the cohort-component method, which starts with a baseline population (in this case, the current number of Muslims in each country) divided into groups, or cohorts, by age and sex. Each cohort is projected into the future by adding likely gains – new births and immigrants – and subtracting likely losses – deaths and emigrants. These calculations were made by the Pew Forum’s demographers, who collaborated with researchers at the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) in Austria on the projections for the United States and European countries. (For more details, see Appendix A: Methodology.)

The current population data that underpin this report were culled from the best sources available on Muslims in each of the 232 countries and territories for which the U.N. Population Division provides general population estimates. Many of these baseline statistics were published in the Pew Forum’s 2009 report, Mapping the Global Muslim Population, which acquired and analyzed about 1,500 sources of data – including census reports, large-scale demographic studies and general population surveys – to estimate the number of Muslims in every country and territory. (For a list of sources, see Appendix B: Data Sources by Country.) All of those estimates have been updated for 2010, and some have been substantially revised. (To find the current estimate and projections for a particular region or country, see Muslim Population by Country, 1990-2030.) Since many countries are conducting national censuses in 2010-11, more data is likely to emerge over the next few years, but a cut-off must be made at some point; this report is based on information available as of mid-2010. To the extent possible, the report provides data for decennial years – 1990, 2000, 2010, 2020 and 2030. In some cases, however, the time periods vary because data is available only for certain years or in five-year increments (e.g., 2010-15 or 2030-35).

The definition of Muslim in this report is very broad. The goal is to count all groups and individuals who self-identify as Muslims. This includes Muslims who may be secular or nonobservant. No attempt is made in this report to measure how religious Muslims are or to forecast levels of religiosity (or secularism) in the decades ahead.2

The main factors, or inputs, in the population projections are:

  • Births (fertility rates)
  • Deaths (mortality rates)
  • Migration (emigration and immigration), and
  • The age structure of the population (the number of people in various age groups)

Related factors – which are not direct inputs into the projections but which underlie vital assumptions about the way Muslim fertility rates are changing and Muslim populations are shifting – include:

To fully understand the projections, one must understand these factors, which the next section of the report will discuss in more detail.

Readers can also explore an online, interactive feature that allows them to select a region or one of the 232 countries and territories – as well as a decade from 1990-2030 – and see the size of the Muslim population in that place and time.

Muslim population growth outpaces non-Muslims: study

WASHINGTON: The world’s Muslim population will grow twice as fast as the non-Muslim population in the next 20 years, when Muslims are expected to make up more than a quarter of the global population, a study published Thursday predicts.

Using fertility, mortality and migration rates, researchers at the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life project a 1.5-per cent annual population growth rate for the world’s Muslims over the next two decades, and just 0.7 per cent growth each year for non-Muslims.

The study, called “The Future of the Global Muslim Population,” projects that in 2030 Muslims will make up 26.4 per cent of the world’s population, which is expected to total around 8.3 billion people by then.

That marks a three-percentage-point rise from the 23.4-per cent share held by Muslims of the globe’s estimated 6.9 billion people today, the study says.

More than six in 10 followers of Islam will live in the Asia-Pacific region in 2030, and Pakistan, which has seen a rise in radical Islam in recent months, will overtake Indonesia as the world’s most populous Muslim nation.

In Africa, the Muslim population of the sub-Saharan country of Nigeria will be greater than that of Egypt in 20 years, the study projects.

And in Europe, Pew predicts the Muslim population will grow by nearly a third in 20 years, from 44.1 million people, or six per cent of the region’s inhabitants in 2010, to 58.2 million or eight per cent of the projected total population by 2030.

Some European Union (EU) countries will see double-digit percentages of Muslims in their population by 2030: Belgium’s Muslim population is projected to rise from six per cent to 10.2 per cent over the next 20 years, while France’s is expected to hit 10.3 per cent in 2030, up from 7.5 per cent today.

In Sweden, Pew predicts Muslims will comprise nearly 10 per cent of the population compared to less than five per cent today.

Britain’s Muslim population is predicted to rise from 4.6 per cent to 8.2 per cent by 2030, and 9.3 per cent of the population of Austria is forecast to be Muslim by then, compared to less than six per cent of residents of the alpine country now.

Russia, which is not a member of the EU, will continue to have the largest Muslim population in absolute terms in Europe in 2030, with 18.6 million Muslims or 14.4 per cent of the total population of the vast country.

The United States, meanwhile, is projected to have a larger absolute number of Muslims by 2030 than any European countries other than Russia and France, but proportionally, Muslims will make up a much smaller percentage of the population of the United States than they do in Europe.

The Muslim share of the US population is projected to grow from its current level of less than one percent to 1.7 per cent by 2030, making Muslims “roughly as numerous as Jews or Episcopalians are in the United States,” the study says.

THE GROWING WORLD OF ISLAM

·

by Richard Allen Greene

·

Nearly one in four people worldwide is Muslim — and they are not necessarily where you might think, according to an extensive new study that aims to map the global Muslim population.

Nearly two out of three of the world’s Muslims are in Asia, stretching from Turkey to Indonesia.

India, a majority-Hindu country, has more Muslims than any country except for Indonesia and Pakistan, and more than twice as many as Egypt.

China has more Muslims than Syria.

Germany has more Muslims than Lebanon.

And Russia has more Muslims than Jordan and Libya put together.

Nearly two out of three of the world’s Muslims are in Asia, stretching from Turkey to Indonesia.

The Middle East and north Africa, which together are home to about one in five of the world’s Muslims, trail a very distant second.

There are about 1.57 billion Muslims in the world, according to the report, “Mapping the Global Muslim Population,” by the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life. That represents about 23 percent of the total global population of 6.8 billion.

There are about 2.25 billion Christians, based on projections from the 2005 World Religions Database.

Brian Grim, the senior researcher on the Pew Forum project, was slightly surprised at the number of Muslims in the world, he told CNN.

“Overall, the number is higher than I expected,” he said, noting that earlier estimates of the global Muslim population have ranged from 1 billion to 1.8 billion.

The report can — and should — have implications for United States policy, said Reza Aslan, the best-selling Iranian-American author of “No God but God.”

“Increasingly, the people of the Middle East are making up a smaller and smaller percentage of the worldwide Muslim community,” he told CNN by phone.

“When it comes to issues of outreach to the Muslim world, these numbers will indicate that outreach cannot be focused so narrowly on the Middle East,” he said.

“If the goal is to create better understanding between the United States and the Muslim world, our focus should be on south and southeast Asia, not the Middle East,” he said.

He spoke to CNN before the report was published and without having seen its contents, but was familiar with the general trends the report identified.

The team at the Pew Forum spent nearly three years analyzing “the best available data” from 232 countries and territories, Grim said.

Their aim was to get the most comprehensive snapshot ever assembled of the world’s Muslim population at a given moment in time.

So they took the data they gathered from national censuses and surveys, and projected it forward based on what they knew about population growth in each country.

They describe the resulting report as “the largest project of its kind to date.”

It’s full of details that even the researchers found surprising.

“There are these countries that we don’t think of as Muslim at all, and yet they have very sizable numbers of Muslims,” said Alan Cooperman, the associate director of research for the Pew Forum, naming India, Russia and China.

One in five of the world’s Muslims lives in a country where Muslims are a minority.

And while most people think of the Muslim population of Europe is being composed of immigrants, that’s only true in western Europe, Cooperman said.

“In the rest of Europe — Russia, Albania, Kosovo, those places — Muslims are an indigenous population,” he said. “More than half of the Muslims in Europe are indigenous.”

The researchers also were surprised to find the Muslim population of sub-Saharan Africa to be as low as they concluded, Cooperman said.

It has only about 240 million Muslims — about 15 percent of all the world’s Muslims.

Islam is thought to be growing fast in the region, with countries such as Nigeria, which has large populations of both Christians and Muslims, seeing violence between the two groups.

The Pew researchers concluded that Nigeria is just over half Muslim, making it the sixth most populous Muslim country in the world.

Roughly nine out of 10 Muslims worldwide are Sunni, and about one in 10 is Shiite, they estimated.

They warned they were less confident of those numbers than of the general population figures because sectarian data is harder to come by.

“Only one or two censuses in the world … have ever asked the sectarian question,” said Grim.

“Among Muslims it’s a very sensitive question. If asked, large numbers will say I am just a Muslim — not that they don’t know, but it is a sensitive question in many places,” he said.

One in three of the world’s Shiite Muslims lives in Iran, which is one of only four countries with a Shiite majority, he said. The others are Iraq, Azerbaijan, and Bahrain.

Huge as the project of mapping the world’s Muslim population is, it is only the first step in a Pew Forum undertaking.

Next year, the think tank intends to release a report projecting Muslim population growth into the future, and then the researchers intend to do the whole thing over again with Christians, followed by other faith groups.

“We don’t care only about Muslims,” Grim said.

They’re also digging into what people believe and practice, since the current analysis doesn’t analyze that.

“This is no way reflects the religiosity of people, only their self-identification,” Grim said. “We’re trying to get the overall picture of religion in the world.”

UK Christians embracing Islam making Islam
fastest-growing religion

Islam is the fastest growing religion in the United Kingdom.

London: Islam, despite being falsely propagated as a terror religion, is growing rapidly in the western countries which are normally Christian-populous countries. The United Kingdom is one of the best examples of this where Christians in big numbers are converting to be Muslims making Islam to be the fastest growing religion in the British state.

The dominance of Islam has been endorsed by the nationwide census conducted recently in the UK which has not only proved Islam to be the fastest growing religion but also the second biggest religion in the country.

One of the analyst said, “All indications are that a growing number of Britons who grew up in nominally Christian households are converting to Islam. This partially explains why the number of Muslims is increasing while the number of Christians is declining…this trend can be expected to continue.”

According to the census results, Muslims now make up 5 percent of the UK population. The current rates of growth indicates that the number of Muslims would double again by the time the next census is conducted in 2021, and would then make up 10 percent of the population.

During the same period, the Muslim population in England and Wales increased by 80 percent (1.2 million), from 1.5 million in 2001 to 2.7 million in 2011, making it the second-largest religion in Britain.

Many analysts believe that the true number of Muslims in Britain may be much higher than indicated by the census data. This is because the religion question was the only voluntary question on the 2011 Census and 7.2 percent of people did not answer the question.

The third-largest religion in England and Wales is Hinduism (817,000), followed by Sikhism (423,000), Buddhism (248,000) and Judaism (263,000), the Census report said.

As a proportion of the population as a whole (56.07 million people were counted in the census), the number of those describing themselves as Christian has dropped from 72 percent in 2001 to 59 percent in 2011. The number of Muslims has increased from 3 percent to 5 percent over a decade.

The census data shows that the number of Christians in England and Wales declined by 11 percent (4.1 million) during the past decade, from 37.3 million in 2001 to 33.2 million in 2011.

The census data clearly shows that Islam is growing at a rapid pace and huge numbers of non-Muslims are embracing Islam even though western portrays peaceful Islam as a religion of terrorists and spreads false propaganda against the Muslims.


 

UK: Rapidly Growing Muslim Population Means Britain Will Have More Muslims Than Kuwait by 2030

Recently we posted an article showing how the number of Muslims in British jails is rapidly rising, today I found a shocking census report from the UK, showing that in 20 years Britain will have a larger Muslim population than Kuwait and one in ten Briton will be Muslim.

My theory is, the current census claim that Muslims make up 3% – 4% of Britain’s population yet look at the chaos, crimes and terror attacks the current population have led.. when the Muslim population reaches 10% or 20% of Britain’s population, what situation will Britain be in?

That same theory applies to all European countries who have allowed mass Muslim immigration and are suffering the effects.

Original News Source

  • Muslims to make up quarter of world’s projected population of 8.3billion
  • 72 countries already have one million or more Muslims
  • Britain to have more Muslims than Kuwait by 2030

The Muslim population in the UK will almost double to 5.5million within 20 years, it has been claimed.

Immigration and high birth rates will mean nearly one in ten Britons will be Muslim by 2030, according to a worldwide study about the spread of Islam.

And the forecasts mean Britain will have more Muslims than Kuwait.

On the rise: Nearly one in ten people in Britain will be Muslim by 2030 because of immigration and high birth rates. The report comes amid continuing debate over the views of Muslims in Britain and attitudes towards themRising: Nearly one in ten people in Britain will be Muslim by 2030 because of immigration and high birth rates. The report comes amid continuing debate over the views of Muslims in Britain and attitudes towards them
 

From 1990 to 2010 the number of followers of the Islamic faith around the world increased at an average rate of 2.2 per cent annually. Last year there were 1.57billion around the world.

The British increase in the Muslim population from the current 2.8million will be mainly driven by immigration, according to figures prepared by a Washington think tank.

Projections by the respected Pew Research Centre said the 40 years between 1990 and 2030 will see a fivefold rise in Britain.

In 1990 there were 1.1million Muslims in Britain, representing two per cent of the population.

By last year that figure had risen to 2.8million, or four per cent. By 2030 the number will hit 5.5million – eight per cent of an estimated 68million population, Pew researchers said.

The global spread of Islam

In the U.S., the number of Muslims will also double by 2030 – rising to 6.2million from 2.6million today. But the percentage of Muslims will remain lower than the UK because the total population is five times bigger there, with around 300million at present.

Last May, official figures showed that there could be 70million people in Britain by 2029 – largely fuelled by the migrant boom.

By comparison, in the same year the Arab state of Kuwait is expected to have a Muslim population of 3.6million, it forecast.

The report said one in four migrants to the UK are Muslims.

In Canada, the number of Muslims is set to nearly treble to 2.7million in 2030 from 940,000 at present, the study found.

‘The greatest increases in the Muslim share of the population – driven primarily by continued migration – are likely to occur in Western and Northern Europe, where Muslims will be approaching double-digit percentages of the population in several countries,’ it said.

Britain has long had high immigration levels from some Muslim countries, notably Pakistan and Bangladesh, and in recent years has seen high numbers of migrants from Islamic parts of Africa.

The Pew report also cited high birth rates. It said that ‘generally, Muslim populations tend to have higher fertility rates than non-Muslim populations’.

It added: ‘A larger share of the Muslim population is in, or soon will enter, the prime reproductive years between the ages of 15 and 29.

‘Also, improved health and economic conditions in Muslim-majority countries have led to greater-than-average declines in infant and child mortality rates, and life expectancy is rising even faster in Muslim-majority countries than in other less-developed countries.’

The number of Muslims in the U.S. is expected to double in the next 20 years to 6.2million from 2.6million today.

There will be as many Muslims in America as there are Jews or Episcopalians today, if the predictions are correct.

Currently 0.8 per cent of the U.S. population is American, but by 2030 that is expected to rise to 1.7 per cent.

The reports authors warned that political change in the U.S. could limit immigration.

The study used past population changes, migration figures and fertility rates to estimate changing Islamic populations.

By 2030 Muslims will make up 26 per cent of the world’s projected population of 8.3billion, up from 23 per cent of the estimated 2010 world population of 6.9billion, it said.

Those figures represent an increase from 1.6billion in 2010 to 2.2billion in 2030, a rise of 35 per cent.

The analysis comes amid continuing debate over the views of Muslims in Britain and attitudes towards them.

The study was based on past demographic trends and estimations on what will happen to them over the next 20 years.

Last week Tory Party chairman Baroness Warsi said prejudice against Muslims is seen as normal and called for people to stop categorising them.

C. Asian Muslim migrants change the face of Moscow

 
 
 

 

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Last Update 30 December 2012 9:51 pm



TIMUR BULGAKOV has a black belt in karate, two university degrees, a powerful SUV and a small yet thriving construction company. The 28-year-old’s success is impressive for a Muslim migrant from Uzbekistan whose first job in Moscow 10 years ago was as a delivery boy.
But his story is no longer that unusual.
The old Moscow, populated largely by Slavs, is rapidly giving way to a multi-ethnic city where Muslims from Central Asia are the fastest growing sector of the population. And they are changing the face of Moscow as their numbers rise and they move up the career ladder, taking on more visible roles in society.
Muslim women wearing hijabs are a growing sight on the capital’s shopping streets. Bearded men sport Muslim skullcaps and hang trinkets with Qur'anic verses in their cars. Many more are non-practicing Muslims who blend in with secular attire, although their darker skin, accented speech and foreign customs often provoke frowns from native Muscovites. Meanwhile, their children — some born and raised in the capital — throng kindergartens and schools.
Russia’s Federal Migration Service estimates that about 9.1 million foreigners arrived in Russia to work in 2011. More than a third came from three impoverished Central Asian countries that were once part of the Soviet Union: About 2 million from Uzbekistan, 1 million from Tajikistan and more than 500,000 from Kyrgyzstan. Local experts say the number of Central Asian arrivals is at least twice as high. And hundreds of thousands of Central Asians have already acquired Russian passports and are off the migration services’ radar.
The Central Asian migration has been the driving force in boosting Russia’s Muslim population to more than 20 million, from some 14 million 10 years ago — a phenomenon experts call one of the most radical demographic makeovers Russia has ever seen.
“Today, we’re standing on the verge of a powerful demographic explosion, a great migration period equal to the one that took place in the first centuries A.D.,” said Vyacheslav Mikhailov, a former minister for ethnic issues and a presidential adviser on ethnic policies.
Muslims are expected to account for 19 percent of Russia’s population by 2030, up from 14 percent of the current population of 142 million, according to the US government’s National Intelligence Council report on global trends published this month.
“Russia’s greatest demographic challenge could well be integrating its rapidly growing ethnic Muslim population in the face of a shrinking ethnic Russian population,” the report said. The changing ethnic mix “already appears to be a source of growing social tensions.”
By the most conservative estimates, 2 million Muslims now live in Moscow, a city of nearly 12 million.
Polls show that nearly half of Russians dislike migrants from Central Asia and Russia’s Caucasus — another source of Muslim migration. They have become the bogeymen of Russian nationalists, accused of stealing jobs, forming ethnic gangs and disrespecting Russian customs.
Central Asian labor migrants for years have filled the lowest paying jobs, working as janitors, street cleaners, construction workers, vendors at outdoor markets and unlicensed cab drivers; Many live in trailers on construction sites, in squalid basements and overcrowded flophouses or sleep inside their cars. The uncertain legal status of many of the migrant workers has left them vulnerable to abuse and exploitation from employers. They also have fallen victim to xenophobic attacks.
But in recent years, they are increasingly becoming more established members of the work force. And a significant minority, like Bulgakov, now run their own successful businesses.
The undisputed star among Russia’s Central Asian business figures is ethnic Uzbek Alisher Usmanov: His interests in mining, telecoms and Internet startups have made him one of Russia’s richest men, with a fortune estimated at $ 18.1 billion, and he is the co-owner of British soccer club Arsenal.
Filmmaker Timur Bekmambetov, who was born in Kazakhstan and educated in Uzbekistan, has directed some of Russia’s most top grossing movies. Recently he moved to Hollywood, directing this year’s “Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter” and before that “Wanted,” a 2008 action flick with Angelina Jolie.
Uzbek native Mirzakarim Norbekov has penned half a dozen bestsellers based on the medical teachings of Muslim medieval scholar Avicenna, who was born in what is now Uzbekistan. His medical training center in Moscow charges hundreds of dollars for short healing courses.
And while the Central Asian influx has caused frictions, there are also abundant signs of non-Muslim Muscovites embracing things seen as quintessentially Central Asian. Uzbek restaurants, fast-food joints and clay-oven bakeries that churn out round flat-cakes and meat pies have become ubiquitous; fashionistas sport oriental silk scarves and pashminas that resemble hijabs; and many ethnic Russian housewives buy halal meat believing it to be healthy and devoid of chemical preservatives.
The trend may have deep roots in Russian history: Unlike most West European capitals, Moscow has absorbed Muslims into its population for centuries.
The principality of Moscow emerged as a regional power some 700 years ago, when the Golden Horde, a state dominated by Mongols and Muslim Tatars, controlled parts of what is now southern Russia, the Caucasus and Central Asia. As Moscow took over the Horde’s territories and invaded lands that once had been conquered by Arabs, Persians and Turks, Muslim nobles became part of the Russian elite and Muslims were free to practice their faith under the czars.
Novelist Vladimir Nabokov proudly wrote that his aristocratic family descended from Nabak, an illegitimate son of Genghis Khan. Composer Sergei Rachmaninoff and writer Mikhail Bulgakov were the offspring of Tatar nobles.
“Muslims are not newcomers here, and all the current problems are temporary,” said Vladilen Bokov, a devout Muslim and member of the Public Chamber, which advises the Kremlin on social issues.
The Central Asians are far from a homogeneous group: Kyrgyz are proud of their militant nomadic heritage, while Uzbeks and Tajiks extol their cultures that produced poets and scholars who contributed to medieval Muslim civilization.
Czarist armies finished the conquest of Central Asia by early 20th century and Stalinist purges decimated their elites. The Soviet era reshaped their economies and agriculture and made “Russification” a key to success for several generations of their best and brightest.
In the 1980s, Central Asian conscripts became a majority in the Soviet Army as birth rates among ethnic Russians plummeted.
Communist Moscow tried to win sympathies of Central Asians — and uproot their Muslim traditions — by building schools and universities. Their graduates are still qualified to work as bank clerks, computer engineers, artists and medical doctors in Russia.
Employers often praise them for their hard work, career ambitions and indifference to alcohol — Russia’s proverbial scourge.
The 1991 Soviet collapse was followed in their overpopulated republics by ineffective economic reforms, political unrest a resurgence of Islamic traditions and a gradual loss of Soviet mentality. But the number of Russian speakers remains high. They visit Russia visa-free and can stay here for up to three months, or longer if they get work or residence permits.
Construction company owner Bulgakov has faced his share of hardships.
Square-jawed and burly, he recalled over a cup of steaming tea how he stole some undercooked buckwheat from a dormitory kitchen several days after losing a job. He lost another job after beating up his supervisor for calling him a “churka,” a pejorative term for Central Asians. Bulgakov said that during a hospital visit he heard a doctor reproaching his ethnic Russian wife for failing to “find a decent Russian man.”
After several years of selling construction paint, Bulgakov started his own company.
Now his company renovates apartments of affluent Muscovites and works on occasional contracts with the Defense Ministry. He also has joined Kremlin’s United Russia party and wants to run for office in the Moscow suburb of Ivanteevka where he lives with his wife and two children.
Bulgakov, who sports a white-gold ring with a sparkling diamond, has this advice for fellow Central Asians seeking a better life in Moscow.
“If you want to work, just work,” he said, “If you don’t, you’ll find a thousand excuses — ‘I am being oppressed, abused, beaten.’”


Как русским девушкам, принявшим ислам, живется в Дагестане

http://www.online812.ru/2013/03/11/015/

11/03/2013

Русские, принявшие ислам, в Дагестане подвергаются гонениям со стороны силовиков и спецслужб, утверждают местные правозащитники. В муфтияте региона и в МВД говорят, что тех, кто исповедует правильный ислам, никто не преследует.

не ваххабитка"

Аминат Абдуллаева, урожденная Наталья Матвеева, переехала из Краснодара в Дагестан из религиозных побуждений. Дома и среди друзей мало кто понимал и принимал ее выбор, говорит девушка.

На встречу с корреспондентом PublicPost девушка пришла вместе со своей новой подружкой — мусульманке нельзя находиться наедине с мужчинами, кроме близких родственников. Аминат 27 лет, а из кубанской столицы она уехала, когда ей было 25. Оказывается, главной причиной того, что она перешла в другую религию, была любовь.

В ночном клубе она познакомилась с чеченцем по имени Адам, рассказывает свою историю Аминат: "Адам туда пришел с друзьями. Он сам был тихий, не танцевал, хотя я его сама несколько раз приглашала. Мы обменялись номерами, а потом стали видеться все чаще. Он говорил, что любит меня и что на мне женится, но я должна была принять ислам. Честно скажу, я в него влюбилась сильно и была согласна даже душу продать дьяволу. Я научилась делать намаз, одевалась намного скромнее, платок надевала. Чтобы еще больше угодить Адаму, я стала читать исламские книги. Потихоньку я стала понимать, что ислам — это справедливая и правильная религия. Я благодарила Аллаха, что он меня привел к религии. Адам все равно на мне не женился, сказал, что родители против брака с русской. Я поплакала-поплакала, но потом успокоилась. Подружки начали радоваться за меня, говорили, что наконец-то я снова стану нормальной прежней Натахой. Но я еще больше ушла в религию. Родители называли меня террористкой, шахидкой. Брат издевался, говорил обидные слова. Отец один раз сильно избил, когда напился. Вообще, они меня за человека не признавали, когда я им говорила, что пить плохо, или другие замечания делала. Подружек я тоже растеряла.

Я решила уехать из Краснодара в Дагестан. Почему именно сюда? Ну, я с Асият и другими местными девочками через "Одноклассники" общалась. Они меня сюда и позвали, сказали, что помогут. Помогли мне они, нашли работу. Я тут снимаю небольшую квартиру, работаю в пекарне. Ходила недавно к имаму мечети, чтобы помог мне найти мужа. Он нашел пару кандидатов, но у них уже были жены. Второй или третьей женой быть не хочу, хотя, по исламу, не выходить замуж по такой причине грешно".

Такого, чтобы ее именно преследовали, не было, говорит Аминат: "Когда я сюда приехала, спустя три-четыре месяца мной заинтересовалась полиция. Два раза приходил участковый, расспрашивал меня обо всем. Один раз меня в отдел вызывали. Но все вопросы они задавали культурно, мирно. Понимаю, почему они так делали. Тут русских девушек, которые приняли ислам, как я слышала, заносят автоматически в "черные списки". Ну, это списки, куда неблагонадежных включают. Потом изучают каждую девушку: куда она ходит, с кем общается, чем занимается. Меня в этом списке нет уже, как мне сказал имам. Потому что я не ваххабитка и отношусь к нормальной мечети".

Нормальная мечеть, по словам Аминат, подчиняется Духовному управлению мусульман республики.

В глазах читались страх и ненависть

Любая мусульманская мечеть — нормальная, не согласна с Аминат другая русская, принявшая ислам, Мадина Исаева. В паспорте ее имя значится как Марина Капустина. Она переехала в Дагестан из Ставрополья в начале февраля. Говорит, что сбежала от родителей, которых "редко трезвыми увидишь".

По ее словам, в ислам она пришла сама: "Я через интернет читала много об исламе, познакомилась через соцсети с мусульманами из Дагестана, Ингушетии. Мне 20 лет, и я вообще самостоятельная девушка. С мамой мы работали на продуктовом рынке в Пятигорске. Родители сильно запили, и с 14 лет я сама торговала. Я втайне от родителей копила деньги. Они мне понадобились потом, когда я в Махачкале обустраивалась. А переехала я сюда, когда меня вконец достали взгляды людей, смотрящих мне вслед. Такие осуждающие взгляды, а еще в глазах читалась ненависть. И страх тоже. Все потому, что я в хиджабе ходила. На рынке ко мне стали и полицейские подходить, два-три раза забирали в отделение. Оказывается, на меня жалобы писали, что я террористка. Ну, я переехала в Дагестан, нашла тут место на рынке. Завела подружек таких же, как и я. Но и тут меня полиция стала преследовать. Подруги объяснили мне, что полиции я интересна, т. к. в черном хиджабе хожу, еще дружу больше с ними, чьи родственники ходят в салафитские мечети. Ну, это мечети, которые люди называют ваххабитскими. У меня вообще ощущение, что те, кого называют ваххабитами, и те, которых называют традиционными мусульманами, нашли бы давно общий язык, если бы не силовики. Они и усугубляют недопонимание между мусульманами. Салафиты также живут по российским законам, как и другие мусульмане. Но почему-то их выставляют террористами. Это как у нас, русских, говорится — разделяй и властвуй".

В съемной квартире, где она живет, дважды был обыск, говорит Мадина: "Оба раза приходили поздно ночью. Перевернули в квартире все. Я от них требую ордера на обыск, представиться, наконец, как зовут, показать удостоверения. Слава богу, что со мной две девочки были оба раза. А то, боюсь, что мне могли что-нибудь подкинуть. Я в райотдел писала заявления на незаконные обыски, мне говорят, что они ничего не знают об обысках. Вообще не приняли заявления. Я сменила уже квартиру, но боюсь, они меня и на новом месте найдут. Но я теперь номера журналистов и правозащитников держу в телефоне и буду сразу шум поднимать, если снова ко мне придут полицейские".

Преследуют тех, кто не с теми связался

В республике с каждым годом увеличивается количество русских, принимающих ислам, заверил PublicPost представитель Духовного управления мусульман Дагестана Магомедрасул Омаров: "Статистики как таковой мы не вывели, но сами имамы мечетей говорят, что реально увеличилось количество приходящих принимать ислам. Если, например, в позапрошлом году один человек в неделю приходил, то в прошлом году каждый день минимум один человек был. Девушек приходит больше, чем парней. Считается, что девушки принимают ислам, т. к. этого от них женихи или мужья требуют. Не сказал бы, что это всегда так. Просто русские девушки, наверное, более активные, более любознательные, чем парни. Но и ребята тоже приходят. Большинство из принимающих ислам, как я могу судить со слов имамов, наши, дагестанские русские. Большая доля из принимающих ислам русских, приезжие тоже".

Если говорить о преследованиях новообращенных русских мусульман, то полиция интересуется таковыми, смотря, где они принимали ислам, сказал PublicPost Омаров: "Я бы не стал говорить, что именно русские мусульмане интересны органам. Им интересны все те, которые могут быть связаны не с теми людьми. Да, в Дагестане теракты совершали русские, принявшие ислам. Но крупные теракты ведь совершали наши же дагестанцы. И полиция, наверное, интересуется русскими мусульманами, оглядываясь на то, к какому имаму или к каким людям обращался желающий принять ислам".

Похитили и пытали, чтобы отговорить от ислама

Русских мусульман полиция часто преследует из-за заявлений их родителей, рассказала PublicPost юрист правозащитного центра "Мемориал" Елена Денисенко: "Если говорить конкретными примерами, то можно вспомнить мытарства новообращенного Сергея Евлоева. Парень принял ислам, а его мать была против. Она попросила то ли участкового, то ли знакомого полицейского поговорить с сыном, отговорить его от мусульманства. Конечно, мать не ожидала, что ее сына будут похищать и пытать. Евлоева несколько раз похищали. И, как он сам рассказывал, к этому причастны силовики. От него требовали сознаться в связях с боевиками. В итоге в отношении Евлоева было возбуждено уголовное дело по трем статьям — там и организация незаконного вооруженного формирования, и бандитизм, и незаконное хранение оружия. На суде парень рассказывал, как его оперативники вывозили в лес, одевали в камуфлированную форму, фотографировали. Эти фотографии на суде были представлены как доказательства вины Евлоева. Но в итоге суд оправдал парня".

По словам Денисенко, множество конфликтов возникает с родителями у принявших ислам, т. к. первые не одобряют, что их дети совершают намаз, начинают одеваться согласно исламским нормам.

Руководитель организации "Правозащита" Гульнара Рустамова рассказала PublicPost, что мусульмане-русские часто обращаются к ней за помощью: "Знаете, вообще-то у меня много заявлений от мусульман о том, что их притесняют из-за религиозных взглядов. Жалуются не только русские. В Дагестане ведь признается так называемый традиционный ислам, т. е. тот, который пропагандируется духовным управлением. Отклонений они не приемлют. А русских, принявших ислам, преследуют особенно активно. Могут в любое время приходить к тебе домой, без объяснений причин устроить обыски, забирают в полицейские райотделы. Там их спрашивают, зачем они сюда приехали, кто их в религию приводил, почему они так одеваются, за какой надобностью имя сменили. Казалось бы, один раз допросили, но нет, допрашивают по нескольку раз, задают одни и те же вопросы. И таких преследований принявших ислам становится много. А на заявления правозащитников власти не реагируют никак".

Чтобы смертниц-русских не было

По словам начальника пресс-службы дагестанского МВД Вячеслава Гасанова, мусульман в республике никто не преследует: "Это чушь, что русских мусульман и мусульман вообще притесняют. Они могут попадать в поле зрения полиции только в том случае, если есть подозрения в их причастности к тем или иным правонарушениям. Впрочем, как и любые граждане. Отдельно именно русскими, которые приняли ислам, не занимаются в МВД. У этих людей на лбу, что ли, написано, что они русские? Когда они переезжают в Дагестан, их не регистрируют ведь, чтобы говорить о том, что сразу после приезда к ним в дверь полицейские стучатся. И эти разговоры о якобы существующих "черных списках" русских мусульман тоже чепуха. Подобных списков нет. Я опять подчеркну, что люди попадают в поле зрения полиции, только если есть подозрения в их причастности к чему-либо. Конечно, когда русские мусульмане вызывают подозрения, то в протоколах указывается, что они переехали в Дагестан, что сменили веру".

Источник в дагестанском Управлении по борьбе с экстремизмом рассказал PublicPost, что за русскими мусульманами волей-неволей приходится приглядывать: "В последние два-три года русских, принимающих ислам, становится больше. Под русскими мы понимаем также и украинцев и белорусов, которые тоже приезжают в республику и живут тут. Бывает так, что они часто ввязываются в радикальные течения. Знакомятся с людьми, которые их могут втянуть в разные истории. Есть также и боязнь, что русских девушек могут обрабатывать для совершения терактов в качестве смертниц. Может, кому-то внимание к мусульманам-русским кажется чрезмерным, но это вынужденная мера".

Браки с мусульманами. Мусульманский брак. Выйти замуж за мусульмана

http://subscribe.ru/group/obschenie-roditelej/2141098/

 

Сейчас не редкость когда русские выходят замуж за мусульман. Но как правило огромная разница в менталитете рано или поздно дает о себе знать. Не редки случаи когда красивый молодой юноша кавказских кровей красиво и трепетно ухаживает за русской девушкой. Но или дело не доходит до свадьбы--- по простой причине , что жениться на девушки своей веры и свой национальности у многих в крови ( кроме русских почему-то) .

А теперь, давайте рассмотрим все это с другой,обратной точки, так сказать изнутри :

Правовая база мусульманского брака, базируется на Коране и Сунне – основополагающих источниках права. Именно эти источники регулируют семейные и наследственные отношения, взаимные обязанности супругов, родителей и детей, других родственников. По поводу полигамного брака в положении 4:3 Корана сказано: «…женитесь, на тех, что приятны вам, женщинах – и двух, и трех, и четырех».

Мусульманин вправе заключить брак с любой женщиной, кроме атеистки. Неограниченная власть мужа в семье дает ему право и возможность обратить жену в свою веру. Важно, что обязательным условием мусульманского брака является возможность мужчины финансово обеспечить своих жен и детей.

Женщине-мусульманке запрещается вступать в брак с иностранцем иной веры. В некоторых странах за такое нарушение грозит тюремное заключение.
Развод для мужчин упрощен до предела. Мужу достаточно сделать устное заявление о своем желании развестись. Инициатива развода почти всегда исходит от мужчины.


Новая школа для мусульманских невест




Скоро в Первоуральске откроется школа для девушек, желающих стать невестой по всем правилам Корана. Организаторами школы стали активистки “Союза мусульманок Урала”.

Мусульман в Первоуральске немного, поводом же для открытия такой школы послужило то, что этот небольшой городок с населением в 150 тысяч человек занимает второе место в Свердловской области по количеству браков.

Ученицы школы будут изучать основы религии, основы домашнего хозяйства, психологию отношений, физиологию. Проводить занятия будут специалисты – имамы, врачи женских консультаций, юристы, психологи, стилисты.

По словам председателя Союза мусульманок Урала Розалии Ахматовой, школа невест поможет мусульманкам преодолевать трудности, с которыми они могут столкнуться при заключении брака по исламским канонам.

Это не первое такое заведение, подобная школа уже есть в Казани. И за время своего существования она уже получила немало положительных отзывов от учениц школы, их женихов и мужей.

Арабские бизнесмены покупают девушек у сирийских беженцев

Арабские бизнесмены все чаще наведываются в страны, где кочуют беженцы из Сирии, сообщает ТСН.

Прибывая под видом благотворителей, они уезжают с малолетними невестами, которых покупают за одну-две тысячи евро. Для семей беженцев, которые бегут в Иорданию, Турцию, Ирак и Ливан, даже не имея при себе сменной одежды, это целое богатство, пишет The Washington Post.

Как пишет издание, "невесты по дешевке" стали расхожим понятием в лагерях беженцев в Иордании. Таксисты из столицы страны - Аммана охотно поджидают богатых арабов в аэропорту или у отелей, откуда везут их в лагеря беженцев.

"Мужчин из Персидского залива привлекает светлая кожа сириек, большие глаза, высокий рост, и, в особенности, низкая цена", - сообщила представительница организации по правам человека Bridge to Freedom Foundation Кассандра Клиффорд.

Многие семьи соглашаются отдать 16-летнюю дочь за приданое всего в тысячу евро. Для нефтяных магнатов из арабского мира это смешные деньги. Процветанию этого бизнеса способствуют местные гуманитарные организации. "Это не эксплуатация. Это великодушие. Семьям, сопротивляющимся перспективе отдать дочь благополучным незнакомцам, предлагают до 4500 евро, а это целое состояние для тех, у кого нет денег даже на хлеб", - говорит представительница одной из благотворительных организаций, действующих в лагерях беженцев Зияд Хамад.

Как отмечает представитель иорданского отделения управления Верховного комиссара ООН Эндрю Харпер, есть большая вероятность того, что девочки-жены будут вовлечены в проституцию или спустя некоторое время после замужества будут просто выброшены на улицу

Последние акты террористок-смертниц показали, что у ваххабитских терактов - лицо русской девушки. В 2011 году это было лицо Марии Хорошевой, взорвавшей отдел милиции в дагестанском поселке Губден. В конце августа 2012 - лицо Аллы Сапрыкиной, убившей шейха Саида-эфенди Чиркейского. Начало 2013 года ознаменовалось именем Алены Быковой. 19-летняя Алена, жительница города Волжский, никого подорвать не успела, но занималась далеко не безобидными вещами: вербовала в соцсетях русских девушек для принятия «чистого ислама» и последующей войны с неверными «на пути Аллаха». Даже если судить по этой фактологии, то вывод напрашивается сам собой: на русских смертниц у ваххабитского бандподполья есть свои особые планы.

В джамаате нет ни русских, ни нерусских, есть сестры по вере. Русскую обитательницу джамаата отличает разве что большее рвение и активность. Благодаря этому рвению русские ваххабитки часто берут верх над своими неславянскими "сестрами". Если русская сестра «успешно» подрывается, то ее имя новый призыв шахидок произносит с чувством благоговения. «Наша русская сестра стала шахидом на пути Аллаха», - говорят они. И мечтают повторить ее действия. Если какая-то девушка вдруг остановится на полпути, ее встряхивают со словами: «Хочешь нас сдать ФСБ? Они тебя не пожалеют, не мечтай. А этот мир нужно ненавидеть. Делай свое дело и молись, чтобы поскорее оказаться в раю». Это - примерно процитированные слова Марии Хорошевой, адресованные другой «сестре», которая не захотела взрывать себя, потому что была беременна от мужа-ваххабита.

Как говорят эксперты, наблюдается рост числа русских ваххабиток. «Я считаю, что исламизация русских девушек - во многом результат плохой работы Русской Православной Церкви и чиновников, которые не уделяют русской молодежи должного внимания, - сказал «Большому Кавказу» Руслан Гереев, директор Центра исламских исследований Северного Кавказа. - Духовной защиты русского населения в России нет нигде. Из-за этого русские первыми падают жертвами алкоголизма, наркомании, тоталитарных сект и подвергаются заражению вирусом радикального исламизма. Духовная незащищенность толкает русских девушек в джамааты, делает их смертницами. Число их будет только увеличиваться, поскольку эмиссары джихадистов имеют на русских девушек особые планы.
