The fact that Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world (Pew Research Center) especially amongst women (outnumber men 4 to 1 apparently).
All this despite the amount of negative press it gets is interesting. Even more interesting is that in the west especially, it seems to be well off educated middle class turning to Islam for answers. And if it's making them better people - then good on them.
Personally I think travelling in Muslim counties and making an effort to understand the principles have changed my perception.
