Islam is set to be the largest religion by 2050. The number of Islam’s will equal the number of Christians around the world. Islam will be commonplace in the United States. Muslims will surpass those of the Jewish population as well. In the United States, Christians will decrease from more than three-quarters of the people in 2010 to two thirds in 2050, and Judaism will no longer be the largest non-Christian religion.

According to recent research, Muslims will grow more than twice as fast as the overall world population between 2015 to 2060. More than a third of Muslim women are of childbearing age and are ready to start a family, and fertility rates in Muslims are on the rise. These are the primary reasons why the Muslim population is growing, and Islam is becoming more prevalent.

The growth of religion is the spread of religions, and the increase of religious adherents around the world, the religious profile of the world is rapidly changing. Christianity remains the largest religious group in the word, but Islam remains the fastest growing religion from other major religions.

By 2050 according to researchers, the number of Muslims will be more than the number of Christians in the world. As of 2010, the number of Christians in the world was estimated to be 2.2 billion, since Islam is the fastest-growing religion by 2050 when there is an increase in the world population the number of growth percentage will be higher.

The correct answer to this question is Islam. Currently, Christianity is the largest religion in the world. It is estimated that there are 2.4 billion Christians around the world. However, as the years go by, it looks as if Islam will overtake Christianity by 2050.

One of the reasons for this is the amount of children they are having. Muslims have a high fertility rate and with that rate, they are more likely to pass on their beliefs to their children. As it continues to pass through generations, the number of people who practice Islam will grow, making them the largest religion.

Although Christianity is the largest religion in the world with an estimated number of 2.4 billion followers, the reality is that the trend may cease to continue like this by 2050 as there are reports and projections that show how Christianity might be displaced from being the largest by 2050.

Islam is often regarded as the fastest-growing religion, although it is the second most popular religion in the world. These projections are based on the reality that factors like the fertility rates of Muslims will become very high that it will cause their population to be twice its current figure by 2050.

One of the things that Islam teaches us that men are free to marry as many wives as they want to be provided if they will be fair to them all, unlike Christianity that preaches a marriage life of just a man and his wife. Also, the population of Christians will also be growing, but it might not be on the same level as that of Muslims.
