Of Arabs and Muslims and the Big BanThis article slightly updates a previous one that IPS had published regarding the recurrent confusion about who are Arabs and who, Muslims. Secondly, because not all Muslims are Arabs, nor all Arabs are Muslims. Not all Arabs Are MuslimsWhile Islam is the religion of the majority of Arab population, not all Arabs are Muslims. Therefore, Arab Muslims amount to just around one-fifth of all the world’s Muslims. In short, not all Muslims are Arabs (these are less than 20 per cent of the total); not all Arabs are Muslims, and… not all Arabs are even Arabs!
