23:33Now PlayingImagine this: In just over a decade, Japan's Muslim population has more than doubled, making Islam the fastest-growing religion in the Land of the Rising Sun! With a whopping 110% increase from 110,000 followers in 2010 to approximately 230,000 by the end of 2022, Islam is making its mark in a country where it once had little presence. What's behind this remarkable growth? Two key factors come into play: a surge in immigration from Muslim-majority countries and an increase in marriages between Muslims and ethnic Japanese. As Japan's population dwindles, the demand for foreign workers is set to rise, opening the door for even more growth in the Muslim community. With a younger demographic than other groups in the country, the future looks bright for second and third-generation Japanese Muslims. And with half of Muslims in Japan being married, the likelihood of this would further increase, coupled with other factors such as low anti-Muslim sentiment in Japan and curiosity among the general public. And guess what? There are now around 90 mosques dotted across the nation, a far cry from the 1980s when mosques were virtually non-existent.
