Sowore in his 50s is encouraging young boys to misbehave online. I don’t blame him, it’s because he got away with so many of his reckless and unguarded utterances.
Those of you who follow him and listen to him, I pity all of you. This is someone whose wife and children are living a good life abroad. But he’s using you people as errand boys, protesters and agent of bad behaviour.
Get something meaningful to do with your lives. Don’t let Sowore ruin your lives for you.
Arabs make up less than 20% of the global Muslim population.
Yes—less than one-fifth.
The overwhelming majority—over 80%—are non-Arabs, spanning Asia, Africa, Europe, the Americas, and beyond.
Have you truly grasped the magnitude of this spread?
The Muslims of India and Pakistan alone outnumber the combined Muslim populations of all Arab countries.
In Russia, Muslims exceed the total population of several Gulf nations combined.
Islam is not regional.
It is not confined.
It is a global reality.
Even in the United States, the true number of Muslims far exceeds what is officially acknowledged.
While France—population 68 million—is often said to host over 10 million Muslims, America—with over 340 million people—is downplayed to fewer than 4 million.
Does that sound consistent?
The reality tells a different story:
Mosques in the United States have tripled over the past two decades.
Every year, tens of thousands embrace Islam—quietly, steadily, powerfully.
Yet the full picture is rarely presented.
Because acknowledging it would mean admitting that Islam is rising—
that it is becoming one of the most influential faiths in the West,
and that its presence continues to expand beyond expectation.
Islam is the fastest-growing religion in the world.
The widely cited figure stands at around 2 billion—but even that is incomplete.
It does not fully account for Muslims in Russia,
nor the vast underreported numbers in China,
nor the true scale in India.
Credible estimates suggest the number is already exceeding 2.06 billion,
and is on track to reach 3 billion within a decade—driven largely by youth and future generations.
This is not a temporary trend.
This is momentum.
In the United Kingdom, the name Muhammad (peace be upon him) has ranked among the most popular names for newborn boys for consecutive years.
Muslim births now represent a significant and growing portion of new generations.
And despite being a minority, mosque attendance often surpasses church attendance—
a reflection not just of numbers, but of conviction.
“Indeed, Allah will accomplish His purpose. Allah has set a measure for all things.”
Islam is a universal faith.
Its الأمة is vast.
Its presence is rising.
Its future is unfolding.
Let this not be just information—
but a reminder:
To stand firm.
To represent with dignity.
To call with wisdom.
To act with purpose.
Islam endures.
And its growth does not slow.
The promise is coming.
