It is great to see the muslim community growing here, particularly in the last 10 years or so. My Aunt is married to a Libyan and when he first came here back in the 80's there was only 1 mosque and 1 halal shop in Dublin. There are now a few mosques and nearly a halal shop in every community.
One of the biggest fears lately is the number of irish women who married muslim men and had children and then completely out of the blue the Husband kidnaps the child, bring it back to their own country and the mother never sees them again. There has been quite a few documentaries lately about that. When I married my Husband, I had to get a letter from my priest stating I was catholic at the time and the first thing he asked me when I told him I was marrying a muslim was did I see a film called Not without my Daughter. I had never seen it but knew what it was about. My first reaction to him was to say, Have you seen the film called Song for a raggy boy(about the sexual abuse of children by priest). His mouth dropped.
