British Muslim perspectives on multiculturalism

Article Abstract:

Twenty one Muslim intellectuals and those active in public or community debates were examined to find what Muslims think about multiculturalism and it was found that there is a variety of views. Some felt that the Quran, Islam and Muslim history are very important sources of multiculturalism and are a form superior to any that was developed anywhere in the contemporary West.
