Abstract

There is a widespread perception that mosques play a central role for Muslim communities in Europe. Although they have played an undeniable role in the reincorporation of the religious practice of these groups, their centrality could be questioned by analyzing the new roles that mosques acquire in its contact with European societies, including the reformulation of its socializing role. This article wants to highlight the misplaced condition of these religious institutions as a way of presenting the future challenges that must be addressed.
