Muslim population: The recent report of Pew Research Center states that Islam is not only the second largest religious group in the world, but has also become the fastest growing religion. Between 2010 and 2020, the Muslim population has increased by 21 percent, that is, this figure increased from 170 crores to 200 crores. This growth is twice the global average population growth (10%). Now one in every four of the world is Muslim. That is, Muslims have 26 percent global share in the population of the whole world. On the other hand, there has been an increase of only 9.7 percent in the non-Muslim population. It has recorded a decrease of 0.1 percent in the population of Hindus.
