Before everyone gets jumped on for not assuming this was a Finn of the Finnish persuasion, take a look.

The Moslem population of Finland is now 4%, which from what I've been reading about other European countries is pretty much when trouble starts.

Helsinki, Jumad Thani 26/September 4 (IINA) – Muslims in Finland constitute about four percent of the country’s population, according to the chairman of the Federation of Finnish Journalists (FFJ). Speaking to the International Islamic News Agency, he said Muslims enjoy full religious freedom in the country.

Islam is the second largest religion in Finland after Christianity. The Muslim population is concentrated in the capital Helsinki. The first Muslims to arrive in Finland were the Tatars, who came during the 18th and 19th centuries of the Gregorian calendar. They were followed by other immigrants from not less than 12 countries.

“More than 3,000 new Muslim immigrants have come to Finland during the past one year from different parts of the Islamic world,” the FFJ chairman said. He pointed out that about 1,000 journalists from FFJ’s 12,000 members are Muslim.

One more interesting figure. There are now more moslems in Finland than Catholics, which are numbered at about 7000. And Finland was a Catholic country up till the 1600s.

"The exact number of Muslims in Finland is hard to estimate, with figures ranging from 10,000 to 40,000."
