The attention on Islam in Denmark, the country that triggered the reactions of the millions of Muslim all over the world, keeps on increasing. This has been ongoing following the publications of the controversial cartoons in 2005. Based on the study conducted by the University of Copenhagen, it was found that with the occurrence of that incident there exists a surprising new phenomenon where quite a large number of people who are natives of Denmark precisely embraced Islam.
After the incident of insulting cartoons targeting the Prophet SAW, some experts viewed that the anti-Islam actions taken up in the West has, on the contrary, caused a huge interest on the society in the religion of Islam, not distancing them from the religion Islam like what the West intended, instead it increased their love for the religion of Islam.
In connection with this, the University of Copenhagen made a report which has 69 pages, explaining the result of their study that what those experts were telling was true. The report has been submitted to the government offices while its contents have not been revealed to the press. Only that, some politicians judged that the Danish people who converted to Islam were those who were stressed and frustrated. These were some of the informations that they talked about.
The University of Copenhagen initiated their study following the controversy that happened last year regarding the prohibition of veils in Denmark.
The spokesman of the Conservative Party, proclaimed the importance of the prohibition of veils worn by some Muslim women. This issue kept on brewing for quite some time, that it eventually caused the Chairman of the Liberal Party, Lars Luka Rasmussen and the Chairman of the Conservative Party, Lenny Ospercyn held an emergency meeting concerning this problem.
This study had also received a lot inputs from various medias in Denmark, especially some national newspapers in Denmark, which used a number of pages for the news related to this issue, and the largest of them was the Jilan Posten, the newspaper that in 2005 published the cartoon insulting Prophet Muhammad SAW.
