Islam's significance in Germany has largely increased[3] after the labour migration in the 1960s and several waves of political refugees since the 1970s.

According to a representative survey, it is estimated that in 2019, there were 5.3–5.6 million Muslims with a migrant background[a] in Germany (6.4–6.7% of the population), in addition to an unknown number of Muslims without a migrant background.[1] A similar survey in 2016 estimated a number of 4.4–4.7 million Muslims with a migrant background (5.4–5.7% of the population) at that time.[4] An older survey in 2009 estimated a total number of up to 4.3 million Muslims in Germany at that time.[5] There are also higher estimates: according to the German Islam Conference, Muslims represented 7% of the population in Germany in 2012.[6]

In a 2014 academic publication, it was estimated that some 20,000-100,000 Germans converted to Islam, numbers which are comparable to those in France and in the United Kingdom.[7][8] In 2007

Demographics

Further information: Religion in Germany

Islam is the largest minority religion in the country, with the Protestant and Roman Catholic confessions being the majority religions.[9][10][11] Most Muslims in Germany have roots in Turkey,[12] followed by Arab countries, former Yugoslavia (mostly of Kosovo-Albanian or Bosnian origin), as well as Iranic countries (Afghanistan, Tajkistan, Pakistan, Kurdistan & Iran). There are also a significant minority originated from Sub-Saharan Africa (mostly East Africa). The large majority of Muslims live in former West Germany, including West Berlin. However, unlike in most other European countries, sizeable Muslim communities exist in some rural regions of Germany, especially Baden-Württemberg, Hesse and parts of Bavaria and North Rhine-Westphalia. Owing to the lack of labour immigration before 1989, there are only very few Muslims in the former East Germany. Among the German districts with the highest share of Muslim migrants are Groß-Gerau (district) and Offenbach (district) according to migrants data from the census 2011.[13] The majority of Muslims in Germany are Sunnis, at 75%. There are Shia Muslims (7%) and mostly from Iran.

From the mid-2000s to 2016 there has been a surge migrants to Germany from outside Europe. Of the 680,000 regular migrants, 270,000 were Muslim. Additionally, of the 1,210,000 asylum seekers mainly from the Syrian civil war, 900,000 were Muslim (around 74%). Of the asylum seekers, 580,000 applicants were approved and 320,000 were denied or expected to be denied. According to the Pew Research Center, similar patterns of Muslim migration to Germany should be expected in the future and the Muslim population share is expected to grow.[14]

In 2020 the Deutsche Islamkonferenz, based on a study, estimated between 5.3 and 5.6 million Muslims lived in Germany.[15]

When in June 2024 the results of the 2022 census were published by the Federal Statistical Office of Germany, it became evident, that the German government does not know how many Muslims live in Germany and where they are located. While the number and localisation of citizens attributed to major Christian denominations could be pulled from Resident registration, no such data were available on unrecognized religious communities. Furthermore questions about religious believes had been dropped from the 2022 census questionnaire.[15]

History

Early history

The Wünsdorf Mosque, at the Halbmondlager POW camp, was Germany's first mosque, built in 1915; it was demolished between 1925 and 1926.

Muslims first moved to Germany as part of the diplomatic, military and economic relations between Germany and the Ottoman Empire in the eighteenth century.[16] Twenty Muslim soldiers served under Frederick William I of Prussia, at the beginning of the eighteenth century. In 1745, Frederick II of Prussia established a unit of Muslims in the Prussian army called the "Muslim Riders" and consisting mainly of Bosniaks, Albanians and Tatars. In 1760 a Bosnian Muslim corps was established with about 1,000 men.[17] In 1798 a Muslim cemetery was established in Berlin. The cemetery, which moved in 1866, still exists today. A number of German philosophers expressed sympathy for Islam, including Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (who particularly admired the Sufi poetry of Hafez)[18] and later Friedrich Nietzsche (in The Antichrist, he claimed that the Germanic spirit was closer to the Moors of Al-Andalus than that of Greece, Rome and Christianity).

The German Empire had over two million Muslim subjects, mostly Sunnis, in overseas colonies. The Majority lived in German East Africa.[19] Several Muslim revolts against German colonial rule occurred, including the Adamawa Campaign, Maji Maji Rebellion and Abushiri revolt.

1920s to the 1940s

Haj Amin al-Husseini meeting with Adolf Hitler (28 November 1941)

The Islamic Institut Ma'ahad-ul-Islam was founded in 1927 and is now known under the name "Zentralinstitut Islam-Archiv-Deutschland" (Central Islamic Archive Institute) and is the oldest such institution in Germany. Shortly after its founding the Nazi Party came to power the archive was forced to suspend all further work, until after the war.[20] During World War II Grand Mufti of Jerusalem Haj Amin al-Husseini energetically recruited Muslims from occupied territories into several divisions of the Waffen SS (primarily the 13th Waffen Mountain Division of the SS Handschar (1st Croatian) and 21st Waffen Mountain Division of the SS Skanderbeg) and some other units.

In September 1943 Hitler specifically decreed that Muslim Germans could be members of the party as well as people of Christian denominations.[21]

Post-war Germany

After the West German Government invited foreign workers ("Gastarbeiter") in 1961, the figure sharply rose to currently 4.3 million (most of them Turkish from the rural region of Anatolia in southeast Turkey). They are sometimes called a parallel society within ethnic Germans.[22]

According to the German statistical office 9.1% of all newborns in Germany had Muslim parents in 2005.[23]

In 2017, Muslims and Islamic institutions were targeted by attacks 950 times, where houses are painted with Nazi symbols, hijab-wearing women are harassed, threatening letters are sent and 33 people were injured. In nearly all cases, the perpetrators were right-wing extremists.[24]

In May 2018 a court in Berlin upheld the right to the state's neutrality principle by barring a primary school teacher from wearing a headscarf during classes, where the court spokesman stated that children should be free of the influence that can be exerted by religious symbols.[25]

According to a study in 2018 by Leipzig University, 56% of Germans sometimes thought the many Muslims made them feel like strangers in their own country, up from 43% in 2014. In 2018, 44% thought immigration by Muslims should be banned, up from 37% in 2014.[26]

In December 2018, the government of Germany strengthened the control of Saudi, Kuwaiti and Qatari funding for radical mosque congregations. The measure was recommended by an anti-terrorist agency in Berlin (German: Terrorismus-Abwehrzentrum) which since 2015 had started to monitor Safalist proselytizing funding in the wake of the European migrant crisis to prevent refugees from becoming radicalized. Henceforth Gulf authorities are required to report payments and funding to the German Federal Foreign Office (German: Auswärtiges Amt).[27][28]

Between 2010 and 2016, the number of Muslims living in Germany increased from 3.3 million (4.1% of the population) to nearly 5 million (6.1%). The most important factor in the growth of Germany's Muslim population is immigration.[29]

In December 2018, there were no official statistics on how much funding mosques in Germany received from abroad.[27]

In July 2020, federal state Baden-Württemberg banned face-covering veils for school pupils as an extension of the ban which was already in force for staff.[30]

Denominations

Muslims in Germany belong to several different branches of Islam (approximate data):

Islamic organisations

Only a minority of the Muslims residing in Germany are members of religious associations.

Sunni

In addition there are numerous local associations without affiliation to any of these organisations. Two organisations have been banned in 2002 because their programme was judged as contrary to the constitution: The "Hizb ut-Tahrir" and the so-called "Caliphate State" founded by Cemalettin Kaplan and later led by his son Metin Kaplan.

Shia

Ahmadiyya

  • Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat Deutschland K.d.ö.R.: German branch of the worldwide Ahmadiyya Community. There is no ethnicity or race associated with this community although most of the members of the community residing in Germany are of Pakistani origin. The Ahmadiyya Community was established in Germany in 1923 in Berlin and is one of the largest in Europe. Communities exist in Baden-Württemberg, Lower Saxony, North Rhine-Westphalia, Hesse and Bremen.[37]
  • Lahore Ahmadiyya Movement: German branch of the worldwide Lahore Ahmadiyya Movement.

Liberal Islam

Wahhabism

Others

  • Verband der islamischen Kulturzentren: German branch of the conservative Süleymancı sect in Turkey, Cologne
  • Verband der Islamischen Gemeinden der Bosniaken: Bosnian Muslims, Kamp-Lintfort near Duisburg
  • Zentralinstitut Islam-Archiv-Deutschland e.V. : Documentary of Islamic Foundation-writings since 1739. The Islamic Institute was founded in 1942 (Sooner called Ma'ahad-ul-Islam Institut).[clarification needed]

Umbrella organisations

Furthermore, there are the following umbrella organisations:

Education

  • The A-Nur-Kita preschool was closed in February 2019 due to its parent organisation, the mosque association Arab Nil Rhein in Mainz propagated material from the Muslim Brotherhood and salafist ideology. Therefore, the parent association was incompatible with the constitution of Germany. This was the first time authorities closed any preschool in Rhineland-Palatinate (German: Rheinland-Pfalz). A-Nur-Kita was the first and only Muslim preschool in Rhineland-Palatinate.[42]

Mosques

There are now 18 official mosques in the country that have been established as mosques since time immemorial. Muslim places of worship (such as mosques and other places of worship) are estimated at between 1,000 and 1,200. Most of these mosques are temporarily built and are mostly located in rented places, factories or warehouses. According to the archives of the Central Institute of Islam, the most important mosques in Germany are located in cities such as Hamburg, Berlin, Mannheim, Marl, Dortmund, Cologne, Frankfurt, Wesling, Bonn, Zingen, Fortsheim, as well as mosques. The cities of Aachen and Munich are important mosques in Germany. These mosques are far from the city center and are often located in industrial areas.[43]

In 2010, the German Ministry of Education and Research established Islamic Theological Studies as an academic discipline at public universities in order to train teachers for Islamic religious education and Muslim theologians. Since then, Islamic theological departments have been established at several universities, conducting research and teaching on Islam from a theological perspective.[44]

Controversies

Islamophobia

This section is an excerpt from Islamophobia in Germany.[]
Islamophobia in Germany refers to the set of discourses, behaviors and structures which express feelings of anxiety, fear, hostility and rejection towards Islam and/or Muslims in Germany.[45][46] Islamophobia can manifest itself through discrimination in the workforce, negative coverage in the media, and violence against Muslims. Various Islamic groups in Germany have expressed concerns over the attacks targeting mosques.[47]

At the Alternative for Germany party congress held on 30 April to 1 May 2016, AfD adopted a policy platform based upon opposition to Islam, calling for the ban of Islamic symbols including burqas, minarets, and adhan (call to prayer), using the slogan "Islam is not a part of Germany".[48][49][50][51]

Islamophobia in the education system

German States that have banned teachers from wearing headscarves (red)

One issue concerns the wearing of the head-scarf by teachers in schools and universities. The right to practice one's religion, stated by the teachers in question, contradicts in the view of many the neutral stance of the state towards religion. As of 2006, many of the German federal states have introduced legislation banning head-scarves for teachers. However, such a ban in North-Rhein Westphalia was declared as unconstitutional in 2015 by the Federal Constitutional Court.[52]

In most German federal states, except Bremen, Berlin, and Brandenburg, religious education is offered as an elective subject in state schools. There are discussions about introducing Islamic religious education alongside existing Catholic, Protestant, and, in some schools, Jewish education. Trials for Islamic religious education are underway in several states, and it is already a regular class in Hessen, Lower Saxony, and North Rhine-Westphalia. However, cooperation with Islamic organizations is challenging since no single organization represents the entire Muslim community.[citation needed] The discussion of religious (Islamic) education in German schools started in the 1970s, and also symmetrically with issues of Qur'anic classes as well as its deterrent effects on the integration of Turkish students into the country.[43]

The construction of mosques is occasionally subjected to Islamophobic reactions in the neighborhoods. For example, in 2007 an attempt by Muslims to build a large mosque in Cologne sparked a controversy.[53]

In recent years, Mosques in Germany have been receiving larger quantities of hate mail as well as threats.[54]

Islamic fundamentalism and Salafism

See also: Salafi movement

According to a 2007 Federal Ministry of the Interior report, almost half of all young Muslims in Germany express fundamentalist views. Approximately 12% of Muslims in Germany support moral-religious criticism of certain Western societal values, along with a range of views on punishments, including corporal punishment and, in some cases, the Capital punishment.[55]

A 2012 poll found that 72% of Turks in Germany see Islam as the only true religion,[56][57][58] while 46% expressed a preference for a growing Muslim population in the future. A University of Bielefeld survey revealed that only 19% of Germans believe Islam is compatible with their culture.[59]

A 2013 study by the Social Science Research Center Berlin found that two-thirds of Muslims prioritize religious rules over national laws, nearly 60% reject homosexual friends, 45% distrust Jews, and many believe the West aims to destroy Islam. For comparison, among Christians, 9% are openly anti-Semitic, 13% reject homosexual friends, and 23% think Muslims aim to destroy Western culture.[60] Additionally, 25% of Turks in Germany consider atheists inferior.[57][61]

Salafism, a part of Sunni branch of Islam,[62] according to German authorities, Salafism is incompatible with the principles codified in the Constitution of Germany.[63] According to the German security service, the Salafist movement has grown from 3,800 members in 2011 to 10,300 in September 2017.[64] Security chief Hans-Georg Maaßen noted that the movement lacks a single leader, requiring many individuals to be monitored.[65] In 2016, the interior ministry of North Rhine-Westphalia reported that the number of mosques with a Salafist influence had risen from 30 to 55, which indicated both an actual increase and improved reporting.[66] In February 2017, German authorities banned the Berliner Fussilet-Moscheeverein, which Anis Amri, the 2016 Berlin truck attack, reportedly visited. In March 2017, the Deutschsprachige Islamkreis Hildesheim was also banned for planning to join ISIS in Syria. The Federal Agency for Civic Education noted that these bans illustrate how Salafist mosques can be involved in planning terrorism.[67]

In 2016, the German security service estimated that around 24,000 Muslims were involved in Islamist movements, with 10,000 linked to the Salafist scene.[67] That same year, 90 mosques were monitored by the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution for promoting Islamist ideologies.[68] Between 2017 and April 2018, 80 Islamist extremists without German citizenship were deported.[69] By March 2018, 760 Islamists in Germany were classified as dangerous by police, with more than half residing in the country, including 153 in prison.[70]

In July 2010, Germany banned the Internationale Humanitäre Hilfsorganisation e.V. (IHH Germany), accusing it of using donations to fund Hamas, which is considered by Germany to be a terrorist organization.[71][72] German Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere stated that donations to IHH, presented as humanitarian aid, actually supported Hamas.[72] Authorities believed IHH collected funds and sent $8.3 million to Hamas-linked organizations.[73]

Antisemitism

See also: Antisemitism in 21st-century Germany

A 2012 poll indicated that 18% of Turks in Germany viewed Jews as inferior.[74][75] A 2017 Bielefeld University study reported that antisemitic harassment and assaults in Germany were perpetrated equally by individuals from the extreme right and left, with a significant portion also committed by Muslims.[76][77] According to the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution, the majority of Islamist organizations in Germany cultivate antisemitic propaganda and distribute it in various ways.[78] However, according to German police statistics, more than 90 percent of antisemitic incidents along with Islamophobic ones are perpetrated by individuals associated with the far right.[79]

Religiosity of young Muslims

Studies show that while not all Muslims are religious, Muslim youths are markedly more religious than non-Muslim youths. A study comparing Turkish Muslim youths living in Germany and German youth found that the former were more likely to attend religious services regularly (35% versus 14%).[80]

41% of young Turkish Muslim boys and 52% of the girls said they prayed "sometimes or regularly"; 64% of boys and 74% of girls said they wanted to teach their children religion.[80]
