Islamism (political Islam) has existed in the United Kingdom since the 1970s, and has become widely visible and a topic of political discourse since the beginning of the 21st century. Islam in the United Kingdom has grown rapidly due to immigration since the 1980s. In 2011, 2.7 million Muslims (4.8% of total population) lived in the UK (mostly in England), more than quintupling over a 30-year period (550,000 in 1981), with a continued tendency of rapid growth〔(The Daily Telegraph: "Almost a tenth of babies and toddlers in England and Wales are Muslim, census figures show" By Keith Perry ) January 10, 2013〕 A position of radical Islamism is openly embraced by a substantial minority of British Muslims; according to a 2006 poll, 28% of British Muslims "hoped that Britain would one day become a fundamentalist Islamic state". ==Early history== Radical Islam has been present in Great Britain since the 1970s, but has not received wider public attention prior to the 7 July 2005 London bombings; terrorism in Britain during the 1970s to 1990s was mostly due to the Northern Ireland conflict, and it was only after the 2005 incidents that the presence of radical political Islam in Britain was widely recognized and studied. Dawatul Islam is an Islamist organisation based in London, founded in 1978〔() Da'watul Islam UK & Eire on LinkedIn〕 from the Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan-originated UK Islamic Mission to cater to East Bengali Muslims in Britain after the founding of Bangladesh in 1971. Syrian Islamist Omar Bakri Muhammad moved to the United Kingdom in 1986, and established a chapter of Hizb ut-Tahrir, and later Al-Muhajiroun ("The Emigrants"), proscribed under the Terrorism Act 2000 on 14 January 2010. Social disturbance began in the Muslim community in England in 1988 with the publication of the satirical novel The Satanic Verses in London. The book was condemned with a fatwa the following year. In 1989, an Islamic Party of Britain was founded by a Sheffield-born convert. The Islamic Forum of Europe was founded in 1990. It was reportedly founded by former members of the Jamaat-e-Islami-affiliated group Dawatul Islam, with whom it came into conflict over management of the East London Mosque "throughout the late 1980s"〔Husain, Ed, ''The Islamist'', Penguin, 2007, p.24-5, 166〕 resulting in "two High Court injunctions" in 1990 in "response to violence" at the mosque.〔Husain, Ed, ''The Islamist'', Penguin, 2007, p.279〕 The Islamic Society of Britain (ISB) was set up in 1990 to promote Islamic values.〔(Islamic Society of Britain ). Last accessed April 15, 2008.〕 The Young Muslims UK, established in 1984, was incorporated into ISB as its youth wing. In 1997, some supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood "broke off" from ISB to form the Muslim Association of Britain. 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「Islamism in the United Kingdom」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
