Religion in Paris
According to a 2011
survey by IFOP,
a French public opinion research organization, 47 percent of residents of the
Paris Region (Île-de-France) identified themselves as Roman Catholic, though just 15 percent said
they were practicing Catholics, while 46 percent were non-practicing. In the
same survey, 7 percent of residents identified themselves as Muslims, 4 percent
as Protestants, two percent as Jewish, and 25 percent as without religion.
According to INSEE,
the French government statistical office, between 4 and 5 million French
residents were born or had at least one parent born in a predominately Muslim
country, particularly Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia. An IFOP survey in 2008
reported that, of immigrants from these predominantly Muslim countries, 25
percent went to the mosque regularly; 41 percent practiced the religion, and 34
percent were believers but did not practice the religion.
In 2012, Dalil Boubakeur, the Rector of the Grand
Mosque of Paris and former President of the French Council of the Muslim Faith,
estimated that there were 500,000 Muslims in the city of Paris, 1.5 million
Muslims in the Ile-de-France region, and 4 to 5 million Muslims in France.
The Jewish population
of the Paris Region was estimated in 2014 to be 282,000, the largest
concentration of Jews in the world outside of Israel and the United States.
