Two distinct Islamic communities have existed in Hungary. The first lived there between 1526 and 1699, as a result of the Ottoman conquest and occupation of many Hungarian territories. It disappeared, however, immediately after the reconquista, when those Moslems who did not flee with the retreating armies were either massacred or forced to convert to Christianity. A new Islamic community was created, beginning in 1878, by the immigration of a substantial number of Moslems from Bosnia-Herzogovina (occupied at the time by Austria-Hungary), as well as an influx of Ottoman Turkish craftsmen, traders, and students. Over time, however, these groups shrank as their members were assimilated into the general population. Today in Hungary there is no organized Islamic community, though a few hundred -- perhaps a few thousand -- individuals adhere to the faith: Arabs, Turks, Pakistanis, Iranians, and other immigrants, plus a handful of local converts.

This article had been going between 6,000 and 60,000 for quite a long time now. I brought a source for 60,000. If anybody has a source for 6,000, please add it and mention there's a debate on the topic. Especially in former Soviet countries it is very difficult to ascertain how much of the population follows a specific religion since the "ethnically" religious population does not correspond, usually, to the "practicing" religious population.

Looking at this entry for the first time, I think what is oddly missing now is more information about the current-day Muslim population. There is the census number and nothing else. Whereas there is a significant number of (relatively new) Muslim immigrants in Hungary now, especially in Budapest, which, as many of them are illegal immigrants, would not show up in any census.
If there was, as I understand, a reference to there being an estimated 60,000 Muslims in Hungary today from MSNBC, which is one of America's main news media, then that would definitely be useful additional info to put back in. As in: "According to the 2002 census, there are 3,201 Muslims in Hungary, but alternative estimations of the Muslim population range up to 60,000 [add link to MSNBC]." No-itsme 22:01, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
You might wanna look at this [1], pretty strange and mysterious, but anyway i strongly believe the muslim population is between 60,000 or 606,000 but many hungarians in hungary said that there are over 1,000,000 million of them make up 10% of the population of hungary. West Bank Boy 10:01, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
Isn't this number maybe a bit high?
no it's isnt afterall there large numbers of Hungarian muslims around 4000- 6000 thousand of them but rest can you image??? Immigrants?? the numbers are greater including those who are not hungarian citizens. best regard.

Looks completely unreliable. SIX percent would mean something like 550 THOUSAND people, which is clearly not the case. The numbers is more like around 6000 to 10,000. Which is far-far less than a TENTH of a percent. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.182.40.89 ( talk) 16:44, 13 November 2017 (UTC)
Dear co-editors, could you please look a bit further then your nose? :) Look at the "reference" and see what kind of page it is. Don't make wikipedia a victim of this hoax. Please!
-- peyerk 07:15, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
peyerk, u are the one who is doing all the hoax this article, this is very anti-islam, if u claim that there is only 3,000 muslims in hungary then it's not much point to have this article, West Bank Boy 15:56, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
It's impossible that 6% of Hungarians are Muslims. I'd be very surprised if there were more than 10,000 of them. However, 3201 is too small a number, I'm sure there are more Muslims than 3201. (Note that the census data is not reliable when it comes to religion since the question about religious affiliation was among those which weren't compulsory to answer.) – Alensha talk 13:32, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
excuse me, that's not on, there's a source that says there 6% of muslims in hungary, so dont plz revert to 3,201 only, both source has to be put 606,000 and 3,201. West Bank Boy 11:03, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
As I'm writing this, the text says that "according to the world muslim population statistic," the number is 6%. But an unsourced list of population numbers on a website about Romanian real estate (!) can hardly be called "the world muslim population statistic." There is no reason to accord an unsourced list of numbers on a website that has nothing to do with the subject any such authority or reliability. So this wording is misleading, I'll change it now. No-itsme 14:34, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
In the "Early History" section, we can read about Carloman, and certain edicts concerning "Ishmaelites", and especially their place within Hungary during the 12th - 14th centuries CE. I would suggest that the words, Islam or Muhammedan, were not in use during this period of history. I would suggest, as does the very article concerning the "Early History" uses only the term "Ishmaelites", and not "Islamists" or any other words concerning Muhammed, etc. It seems only some scholarly concensus? has converted "Ishmaelite" into "Islamist?" Please consider Wikipeida's own site concerning "Ishmael?" See; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ishmael Note, that "scholarship" does not seem to agree about the connection of the Son(s) of Ishmael with that of the Islamists whom, it seems, merely have adopted the relationship with the descendants of Ishmael! I would also suggest that you refer to this Wikipeidia site for more information? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C3%B6sz%C3%B6rm%C3%A9ny Respectfully, 69.92.23.64 ( talk) 17:27, 2 November 2009 (UTC)Ronald L.
