Talk:Islam in Hungary

message: Two distinct Islamic communities have existed in Hungary. The first lived there between 1526 and 1699, as a result of the Ottoman conquest and occupation of many Hungarian territories. It disappeared, however, immediately after the reconquista, when those Moslems who did not flee with the retreating armies were either massacred or forced to convert to Christianity. A new Islamic community was created, beginning in 1878, by the immigration of a substantial number of Moslems from Bosnia-Herzogovina (occupied at the time by Austria-Hungary), as well as an influx of Ottoman Turkish craftsmen, traders, and students. Over time, however, these groups shrank as their members were assimilated into the general population. Today in Hungary there is no organized Islamic community, though a few hundred -- perhaps a few thousand -- individuals adhere to the faith: Arabs, Turks, Pakistanis, Iranians, and other immigrants, plus a handful of local converts.

thread_title: Islam in Hungary 

message: This article had been going between 6,000 and 60,000 for quite a long time now.  I brought a source for 60,000.  If anybody has a source for 6,000, please add it and mention there's a debate on the topic.  Especially in former Soviet countries it is very difficult to ascertain how much of the population follows a specific religion since the "ethnically" religious population does not correspond, usually, to the "practicing" religious population.

thread_title:  SIX percent of all Hungarians are suppossed to be muslim? 

message: In the "Early History" section, we can read about Carloman, and certain edicts concerning "Ishmaelites", and especially their place within Hungary during the 12th - 14th centuries CE.  I would suggest that the words, Islam or Muhammedan, were not in use during this period of history.  I would suggest, as does the very article concerning the "Early History" uses only the term "Ishmaelites", and not "Islamists" or any other words concerning Muhammed, etc.  It seems only some scholarly concensus? has converted "Ishmaelite" into "Islamist?"  Please consider Wikipeida's own site concerning "Ishmael?"  See;
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ishmael
Note, that "scholarship" does not seem to agree about the connection of the Son(s) of Ishmael with that of the Islamists whom, it seems, merely have adopted the relationship with the descendants of Ishmael! I would also suggest that you refer to this Wikipeidia site for  more information? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C3%B6sz%C3%B6rm%C3%A9ny Respectfully,69.92.23.64 (talk) 17:27, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
