The third largest Muslim population in the world now lives in India, accounting for fewer than 20 percent of its population.
If Islam commanded conversion at the point of a sword, would Muslims still be a minority after eight centuries of uninterrupted rule?

Today, despite the mosque in Cordova being one of the most beautiful in the world, no Muslim prayers are allowed there.
A recent poll by the Council on American-Islamic Relations shows the American Muslim population to be both young and highly educated.
Sixty-two percent have obtained a bachelor's degree or higher, which is double the comparable national figure for registered voters.
The survey results also show that Muslims are already well integrated in American society.
