I require the most reliable, accurate and up to date statistics regarding the demographic profile of Muslims living in the United Kingdom. Specifically, the top 30 countries of birth for Muslims living in the United Kingdom.

We said

Thank you for your request.

Census 2021 is currently our best estimate of the population of England and Wales by country of birth. The associated Census 2021 dataset provides country of birth by religion (Muslim) for all usual residents in England and Wales.  

We are only responsible for the Census in England and Wales. Scotland (NRS) and Northern Ireland (NISRA) conduct their own censuses and equivalent data can be obtained from their websites.
