In May of this year the Pew ResearchCenter conducted the first-ever, nationwide, random sample survey of Muslim Americans. More than 55,000 interviews were conducted to obtain a national sample of 1,050 Muslims living in the United States. Interviews were conducted in English, Arabic, Farsi and Urdu. The resulting study, which draws on Pew’s survey research among Muslims around the world, finds that Muslim Americans are a highly diverse population, one largely composed of immigrants. Nonetheless, they are decidedly American in their outlook, values and attitudes. This belief is reflected in Muslim American income and education levels, which generally mirror those of the public.What follows is an Arabic translation of the report summary.
