The number of the total population has been taken from The
CIA World's Facts Book which can be found at:
http://www.odci.gov/cia/publications/factbook

The CIA World's Facts Book was used it to verify the total
number of population in every country. But since it lacks the percentage of
Muslims in each country, we used another statistic located at:
http://www.flash.net/~royal/country.html

In 1986, the Muslim Education Trust organization (MET)
located in the United Kingdom and directed by Ghulam Sarwar, obtained the
1971 census and information given by Embassies of the respective countries
in London. The 1971 census showed the Independent Muslim countries
population was around 784.5 Million and the Muslim Minorities countries had
around 308 Million Muslim.

As for the U.N., the Briticana Encyclopidia for 1994 and
for 1995 was used to get the growth rates. Briticana took those statistics
from the U.N.

The final numbers were obtained by plugging in the
percentage of Muslims (taken from MET) and the number of people (taken from
CIA) in each country using Microsoft Excel.
