Islam's place in Europe

Different points of view related by the European press reflect debate around the question of integrating the Muslim religion into European societies.

Estrella Digital - Hiszpania

Daniel Martin, editorialist of the conservative on-line daily, considers that the American journalist, Bruce Bawyer, author of the book 'How Radical Islam is Destroying the West from Within' proposes a "lucid reflection on the presence and power of radical Islam on the Old continent, as well as its inability to face up to it. The content of the book alerts readers to the real danger posed by radical Islam. Bawer, who has lived in Amsterdam and in Norway, has made an in depth study of the situation of Muslim immigration. His conclusions warn us against the clear-cut refusal of a large number of Muslims living in Europe to accept a minimum of democratic rules. Worse still, many of them are ready to put an end to our 'decadent' political system. ... The religious fanaticism of many Muslim immigrants concerns all of Europe, a continent proving weak and impotent in the face of an enemy with clear ideas and sturdy beliefs." (20/03/2007)

La Libre Belgique - Belgia

The Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB) recently refused to give the Islam specialist Tariq Ramadan permission to hold a conference on its premises. For Ali Daddy, director of the magazine 'Reflets Magazine', this decision illustrates the difficulty Islam has with integrating in Europe. "It is more than tiresome to ceaselessly hear people despising the Koran, people who, what's more, have not read the text and do a bad job concealing their more than sickening Islamophobia. We who have been in daily contact with the text for years have to hear them explain to us that we are just a 'bunch of retards', incapable of understanding the 'intrinsically violent nature' of Islam's founding text; a violence that each Muslim would supposedly be a vector! ... Islam is part of the furniture in Europe and nobody seems to realise this, except perhaps when there are elections and a need for votes in certain communities. And yet Europe has already offered us a model of religious, social and intercultural peace-making: the Andalusian model! This model is being repeated and with it the ultimate choice between barbarity and intercultural cohabitation." (20/03/2007)

Perlentaucher - Niemcy

Syrian-born German political expert Bassam Tibi explains his concept of Euro-Islam: "With the Enlightenment, Europe brought forth a 'disenchanted world' comprising a value universalism that is neither ethnic nor religious, and consequently inclusive. This inclusiveness consists in an openness to others. This is no academic jargon, but a reality that I as a Muslim and Arab am familiar with from my own life in Europe. Inclusiveness is what Europe has achieved in the context of migration. What the migrants must achieve could be an attempt to bring their identity into harmony with Europe and its cultural system. Euro-Islam is a vision that aims to bring this achievement about. Despite allegations to the contrary, the European idea is not Christian: it is secular and its sources lie in Hellenism. At the highpoint of Islamic civilisation, the same Hellenism was among the sources of Medieval Islamic rationalism. So there is a bridge linking the two." (21/03/2007)
