    Islam is the Fastest Growing Religion on Earth

    Surah Fussilat:

    “Soon We will show them our signs in the (farthest) regions (of the earth),
    and in their own souls, until it becomes manifest to them that this is the Truth.
    Is it not enough that thy Lord doth witness all things?”

    [Al-Quran 41:53]

    “It is He who has sent His Messenger with the guidance and the religion of truth, so that He may make it victorious over all other religions, even though the disbelievers detest it”
    (Surah As-Saff 61:9)

    Islam has exceeded Catholicism….

  14. Kisshomaru Says:

    According to the latest statistics published by the United Nations, more person profess adherence to the various Christian beliefs, sects and denominations.

    Islam, with its various sects is the second largest religion (approximately 1.6 billion persons).

    One must keep in mind that although many may profess a particular adherence to a belief system, not all of the actually follow that which they profess.

  15. Peace Missile Says:

    Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world, and by that i dont only mean the ummah growing i mean reverts to Islam.

  16. majeed3245 Says:

    Yes Islam is target of Christians and Jews.

    They feel if Muslims change like they were at the time of Prophet Mohammad, they may become a serious problem for Christians. I mean not to fight but most Christians will convert as Muslims by the influence of true Muslims in daily life……if and when they will become true Muslims. The rise of Islam has started all over the world of Islam. Off course many are misguided and don’t know their right direction to follow but they will eventually will unite and will march on the right way. More young men and women are shedding off the ways of west and becoming good practicing Muslims. More girls in Pakistan, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Malaysia etc are
    wearing modest outfits and pray five times than ever before. More young men are seen praying in Masajids than before.
    Offcourse when these young and women will become parents, Muslims will be different than during occupation of British Empire.

    Soon it will be inshallah..
    Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, said:
    “The Last Day will not come until Islam has entered every house on earth, whether it is made of animal skins or from the earth.”

  18. Zaid S Says:
