Excerpt:
Like much else in Belgium, the administration of the country's second-largest religion is in a rather chaotic state, and things could get worse.
In a kingdom of 11m people, Islam claims the loyalty of about 800,000 souls, of whom the vast majority originate either from Morocco or Turkey. Most of the country's 300-plus mosques are Turkish or Moroccan in flavour, and imams who serve them usually come from those countries. In Brussels, which is the country's capital as well as hub of Europe's main institutions, the Muslim share of the population is about 25%.
Since the terrorist outrages of March 2016, which targeted Brussels airport and the metro system, both the government, the security services and a parliamentary commission have been delving into the country's Islamic scene to see whether it has any characteristics that make it prone to produce fanatics.
