JAKARTA - Stupid about 3 thousand British residents embracing Islam circulating on social media, Facebook. This information was first shared by the @Ardian Dullah account by including an article from infosiantarnews.blogspot.

The title of the article is' 3 million people in the UK converted to Islam simultaneously Subhanallah. ”The title of this article was shared on the group page 'INDONESIA BERSUARA.'

After tracing, no information was found about 3 million British converting to Islam simultaneously. An analysis of the Office for National Statistics (ONS) states that almost 50 percent of the London areas are Muslim.

Data released by ONS for 2018/2019. As of December 2019, 3,194,791 Muslims live in the UK.

The Muslim population in Britain has been estimated to increase in 30 years. The increase of up to three times is based on calculations by the Pew Research Center.

"Thus the claim that 3 million British people simultaneously convert to Islam is false. The 3 million people are a calculation of the Muslim population and not many people converting to Islam simultaneously so that they fall into the wrong content category", turnbackhoaks report was quoted as saying on Wednesday, May 19.
