American Muslims-education, jobs and mosque attendance

One of the most interesting trends among American Muslims was the gender breakdown in several areas, or more specifically, the lack of any gap between men and women. American Muslims are the most educated religious group, with 40% having a college degree or higher and this is true for men and women alike. Most American Muslims in the U.S. have jobs, nearly 70%, and again this is true for men and women. They also have the smallest income difference between genders among all religious groups with 30% men and 25% women saying they make more than $5,000 a month. As a reference point, for Protestants the numbers are more spread apart, with 37% of men and 13% of women reporting the same. For mosque attendance, 41% of women nearly match the number for men, which is 42%.

These findings clearly shatter the myth of Muslim women staying home and underscore the strength of the Muslim woman as a consumer with financial power. It is also worth mentioning that 30% of American Muslims hold professional jobs and 25% to 30% are entrepreneurs.
