Before 1970 there were fewer than ten mosques in New York City—now there are well over a hundred, indicating the rapid growth of New York City’s Muslim population. http://www.columbia.edu/cu/news/01/05/muslim.html
“Numbering an estimated 600,000, Muslims now represent one of the fastest growing religious communities in New York City,” said Peter Awn, co-principal investigator and Columbia University dean of the School of General Studies. http://www.columbia.edu/cu/news/04/09/muslims.html
I was asked by a pastor just the other day what the Muslim population was in New York City. I hope these links will be of some help. Just another reason for us to get there quicker.
