While Islam is a minority religion, it is also the third largest at around 480 million adherents, which is less than .1% of the population. It is behind Judaism (678 million), which both are dwarfed by the Hraenic Christian Church (7.8 billion).

The central powers of Islam are within the Grand Mosque of Dorbozy, located in the Cjian Autonomous Republic (north-central Vallanmoor), in which they practice a strange mix of tribal governing with progressive demeanor. The larger Cjian tribes of Siame and Dorbozy are the ethnic groups which are predominately Muslim in faith.

Cjian Islam is, for the most part, reformed, non-denominational, and has large influence from the Bektashi Order (and other Balkan Muslims). In accordance with Bektashi tradition, they are a relaxed sect that rarely does adhere to Muslim law. They have dancing and wine-drinking ceremonies, and have adopted some Christian tradition, such as the ritual sharing of bread, and confessing to sins.

However those in legal power who would uphold Sharia Law can be expelled and jailed for long periods of time in Vallanmoor, and likewise child marriage, polygamy, and domestic abuse have been outlawed by Cjian Muslims on their own merit to comply with the law. This is to distance themselves from other Scorian Islamic nations that would otherwise have no problem with these ideologies that are not compatible with Valscorian Law.

This is also to show Cjian commitment to Tol Čast (The Oath). The Oath is an unofficial agreement between all Valscorian groups (including those outside of Vallanmoor) to hold one another as equals, regardless of their individual differences, in the advancement of their peoples. The Oath has led to substantial cooperation between the Hraenic Church and the Mosque of Dorbozy, and relations between the two religious groups are good.

Like the cancerous mental disease it is - the afflicted being contained and isolated in ghettos along with other sufferers of similar delusions, and eradicated if they become too much of a nuisance. - Answer given by a random Sidh citizen -

The above statement just about sums up Sidh attitudes towards traditional religion in general and Islam in particular. Given the latter's long history of religious extremism and violence, it is regarded with particular suspicion by the Imperial authorities, but is generally tolerated within the confines of the human ghettos as long as it doesn't become a cause for anti-Sidh rebellion. Which it more often than not does.

Obviously, any misguided efforts by Muslim radicals to "spread the God's religion" and "shake off the yoke of godless kaffir idolaters" with the force of arms are suppressed rather quickly and mercilessly. Unlike the Western authorities of old that found dealing with Islamic terrorism challenging because of their own belief in inalienable rights of all men, even sworn enemies, Sidhae have no qualms about slaughtering entire populations of troublesome minorities in reprisal even for isolated terrorist attacks or other forms of rebellion, and show little restraint or hesitation in impressing that upon their subject populations. The purpose of such brutality is to impress upon their human subjects that they exist solely at the pleasure and mercy of their Sidh betters, who already demonstrate more than their due share of tolerance by suffering such useless waste of resources as them, and that this tolerance has it's limits that best not be tested. Sidh authorities want to ensure that the subjugated humans realize that their Sidh masters have absolutely no need or use for them even as slaves, and that their continued existence or extinction is of no consequence whatsoever to the Sidhae either way, so it's best not to test their patience. Once the humans recognize and accept that as a fact of life, they will be disinclined to rebel for the sake of their own survival, thus requiring no more heavy-handed measures to be dispensed by the Imperial authorities.

With the above being true throughout the Imperium, it's Muslim human residents generally remain peaceful and subservient, grudgingly accepting the rule of the infidel Sidhae, who generally leave them to their own devices in any case. Those few who allow their religious superstitions to get the better of their judgement tend to find very gruesome examples made of themselves, often along with their extended families and entire communities. The Sidh authorities carrying out these collective punishments have a habit of making these examples of religious malcontents maximally religiously-offensive to the target audience, in order to attack the very belief system of the rebels, such as by denying them afterlife by tarnishing their ritual purity before their eventual demise. In the case of Muslim rebels, it usually entails sewing captured extremists in pig carcasses before execution, force-feeding the remains of suicide bombers to their family members and associates before the same, or something of similar nature that tarnishes the subjects' ritual purity and makes them ineligible for afterlife in their belief system without proper purification (obviously denied to them by their execution).

Such heavy-handed policies have generally proven effective, few Imperial cities with adjacent ghettos having any significant trouble with members of any religion. Religiously-motivated violence (as well as violence in general) among humans themselves is a whole another matter, but is generally deemed of no consequence to the Sidh authorities. If a particular religious group threatens to overwhelm others and become dominant in the ghetto, the authorities apply the maxim of dividing and conquering - they simply resettle a sizable portion of the residents off-world and ship in a large batch of off-worlders belonging to different religions to replace them, ensuring that no single creed or ideology becomes sufficiently powerful to unite the denizens of the ghetto and emboldens them to rising against their Sidh masters.

In general terms, the life of Muslims in the Imperium is no different than that of any other humans - short, brutish, squalid, unhappy and full of fear and uncertainty.
Freedom doesn't mean being able to do as one please, but rather not to do as one doesn't please.

A fool sees religion as the truth. A smart man sees religion as a lie. A ruler sees religion as a useful tool.

The more God in one's mouth, the less in one's heart.

Religion is considered a very private matter in Shefkland, generally not considered appropriate to discuss openly. That being said; Islam is not treated much differently than other religions and, although all religion is discouraged, not illegal in any way.

Islam holds the distinction of being the only religion completely, utterly, and irrevocably banned within the Noctish Realm. Not that it matters much, since there are absolutely no Muslims in the Realm thanks to innovative immigration policies and strict border controls designed to keep uncivilized peoples from entering the Realm.

Islam is the largest religion in Snovaland. It makes up around 49% of the population, meanwhile the second largest is Russian Orthodox, followed by Lutheranism and Roman Catholicisim, and the smallest is Judaism.
Islam is treated with respect just like another religion;every religion is treated equally. As muslims had contributed a lot in our history, Islam became one of the official religion in Snovaland.
Aroundd 18% of muslims in Snovaland are denominational muslims, meanwhile the 21% are sunni muslims.

We've always had a sizable Muslim minority in our country ever since our current inception. Currently, they hover around 25%. Like all religions, Islam is legal.

However, in recent years, white nationalists have committed more and more terrorist attacks on the Muslim minority in our country in a tit for tat war with radical Islamists. Though radical Islamists used to have the highest death toll, ever since the October 2016 attacks, when white nationalists committed 5 attacks that killed 2122 people, including 1352 Muslims, white nationalists have usurped the mantle of being the most dangerous terrorist group in the country.

It is one of the two major religions here, as the Ottomans are largely Islamic, so it is tolerated. Radical Islam and Sharia are not tolerated, even by the Ottomans.

Absolutely not. And that same response would be given for literally any religion that exists currently.

not the state religion but legal and tolerated,


This is the best level to which it could be described by external observers, but it's tolerated in a very French-ish manner: You are, for example, pretty much allowed to wear symbols of faith on you and buildings of faith may be displayed and built as such, but there's also very little discussion amongst citizens, and quickly adapting immigrants, about religion as a topic.

legal but discouraged,


It's not discouraged persay, like any religion is, but the culture of Ardrentt places a very shy position away from making religion and faith something that belongs heavily in the public discourse and especially pushing it to the realm of literalism, especially since in the eyes of most Ardrenttides, religion is far more of a cultural issue than that of a textual one. That being said, someone could regard themselves as being highly religious and practice many of their faiths in their home or at their place of worship, discussing it in public more when prominent events have occurred, at home or abroad, and that would be seen as acceptable.

or banned?

The Ardrenttide Rights (The document is titled as such) explicitly grants the right to religious belief, which has been a topic of contention for the large minority who believe that Ardrentt should allow a much broader expression of religious belief in the realm of public discussion, but no: That guarantees the right to practice what is seen, under current interpretation, as truly a religious belief and one that is run as such.

Islam is permitted. However, extremist organizations are banned and mosques are under strict government surveillance to prevent any extremist teachings. If anyone is caught preaching extremist beliefs to their children, they lose the right to be parents.

Islam is permitted to be practiced by citizens and foreign visitors without any conditions or costs, currently applying to less than 40% of the overall opulation. Like buildings affiliated to religious groups (e.g.: churches or chapels, synagogues), mosques are exempt from taxes. Though being the second largest religion in the country, towns under local Muslim administrations are moderately discouraged by nearby Jewish villages. By return, the People's Islamic League of Okstovskaya has petitioned on the People's National Assembly to end this by banning Judaism at its purest extent. This proposal was highly condemned by the upper legislature, thus vetoed and the P.I.L.O penalized of fines worth US$ 50 million.

Due to the current invasions, bombings, and attacks done by the extremist group Islamic Liberation Front in the north-eastern parts of the country, particularly in the city of Moses, Pres. Taylor B. Walker has signed the People's Proclamation No. 170985, therefore declaring martial law in the whole country, lasting for at least 2 and a half months, which is extended if necessary and has reached the cap. Under the Martial Law, mosques and Muslim towns inside the country's major and minor cities are heavily guarded by fully-equipped special forces personnel, further increasing strict security there, and especially in Moses.
