Causes of Islam Growth in the European Union with an Emphasis on three Countries (France, Germany and Britain)

Abstract

In recent years, the European Union witnessed a growing wave of Muslims' population growth (an increase in immigration and birth) and the tendency of people to Islam that today, it has become as one of the major current challenges of the European, so that at present in Europe, especially in three important countries of France, Germany and Britain, Islam is considered as the second religion, and Muslims have a lot of power. This case is so serious to the European that to lay down laws and regulations against Muslims and intensify their control, this issue is understood, but any pressure and restrictions of European governments against Muslims result in hatred of the West among Muslims living in Europe. In this regard, two important questions are raised: What factors are involved in the growth and expansion of Islam in Europe? And how is European governments' approach to the growth of Islam in the European Union? In this paper, it has been attempted to answer these questions through an analytical-descriptive method using library-internet resources.
