The French Council of the Muslim Faith ((フランス語:Conseil français du culte musulman), usually abbreviated to CFCM), is a national elected body, to serve as an official interlocutor with the French state in the regulation of Muslim religious activities.〔Mayanthi Fernando, (The Republic’s “Second Religion”: Recognizing Islam in France ), MERIP.〕 It is a non-profit group created on 28 May 2003, consisting of 25 CRCMs (Conseil Regional du Culte Musulman or Regional Councils of the Muslim Faith). From 2008 to 2013 the president of the CFCM is Mohammed Moussaoui, a mathematics teacher representing the . While CFCM has no special legal standing, it is the ''de facto'' representative of the French Muslims before the national government. Nicolas Sarkozy, who was then Minister of the Interior, supported the creation of CFCM. The group includes other organizations, such as the UOIF. It is presumed that Sarkozy desired to have some "official" representative of the Muslim community, in the same manner as there exist "official" representatives of the Jewish, Catholic, and Protestant faiths. Critics allege that, in virtue of laïcité, there was no need to give official representation to a religious group, which led to ''communautarisme''. They further note that most people of Muslim culture in France are not well represented by such religious institutions. Newspapers like ''Le Canard enchaîné'' or ''Charlie Hebdo'' have stressed that Sarkozy appeared to favour the UOIF. == See also == * Islam in France * Muslim Executive of Belgium * Central Council of Muslims in Germany * Islamic Commission of Spain * Council on American-Islamic Relations * Muslim Council of Britain * Muslim Council of Sweden 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「French Council of the Muslim Faith」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
