Britain is home to more than three million Muslims for the first time ever with more than half born outside the UK, according to new figures.
The number has doubled in just over a decade as a result of soaring immigration and high birth rates.
In some parts of London, almost half the population are now Muslims, according to analysis from the Office for National Statistics.
And if current trends continue, the areas could become majority Islamic within ten years.
Half of those following Islam in England and Wales were born abroad while one in four are under ten years old – indicating a high birth rate within the community.
