‘The European Qur’an’: Falsifying European History With Funding From the EU
16th April 2025
The European Union is preparing to provide €10 million in funding for a scientific research project aimed at highlighting the contribution of the Quran and the Muslim religion to European civilisation. The influence of the Muslim Brotherhood is evident behind this undertaking.
The objective of this programme, entitled ‘The European Qur’an,’ the idea of which was launched six years ago and which is due to last until 2026, is to “challenge traditional perceptions of the Qur’anic text and well-established ideas about European religious and cultural identities” through travelling exhibitions, conferences, and book publications. The starting point of the project’s initiators is that the influence of Islam on European culture is greatly underestimated. “Our project is built on the conviction that the Qur’an has played an important role in the formation of medieval and early modern European religious diversity and identity and continues to do so,” reads the website homepage. The project aims to cover a chronological span of seven hundred years, from 1150 to 1850, from the Iberian Peninsula to Hungary.
All of this could be part of a field of scientific research (almost) like any other, if a clearly militant design were not at work in the background, as revealed by an investigation conducted by the French conservative newspaper Le Journal du Dimanche: several academics involved in the process are notoriously close to the Muslim Brotherhood.
